About The Empress
“The Empress” is a TV series available on Netflix. It is a German historical drama series based on the life of Empress Elisabeth of Austria, starring Devrim Lingnau in the title role and Philip Froissant as Emperor Franz Joseph. The series was released on Netflix on September 29, 2022, and was renewed for a second season on November 8, 2022.
The Empress Season 2 Release Date
“Netflix has officially renewed The Empress” season 2. The second season is expected to explore the pregnancy of Elisabeth and the first couple of years of life as a mother until the tragic death of her firstborn child.
However, there has yet to be an official release date for season 2. Unfortunately, we must wait a long time for the second season to come out. According to WhatsonNetflix, the second season of The Empress is anticipated to premiere in 2024.
Based on the timing of other Netflix historical dramas like Bridgerton and The Crown, which typically have gaps between 1 and 2 years between seasons, we shouldn’t expect a second season until at least a year after the first season’s release.
Will the same cast return for season 2 of “The Empress”?
The cast for season 2 of “The Empress” will include the following actors who played the same roles in season 1:
- Devrim Lingnau as Elisabeth von Wittelsbach
- Philip Froissant as Franz Joseph I of Austria
- Melika Foroutan as Sophie, Archduchess of Austria
- Johannes Nussbaum as Archduke Maximilian
- Almila Bagriacik as Countess Leontine von Apafi
- Jördis Triebel as Ludovika, Duchess in Bavaria
It is unclear if any new cast members will be in season 2 or if any existing cast members will not return.

The plot of season 2 of “The Empress”
While there is no official information on the plot of season 2, it is expected to explore the pregnancy of Elisabeth and the first couple of years of life as a mother until the tragic death of her firstborn child.
The second season will likely continue the story of Elisabeth and Franz Joseph I of Austria and their struggles in the Viennese court. It is also possible that the series will continue to make significant changes to the true history of their romance. However, until more information is released, the exact plot of season 2 remains unknown.
How did The Empress” season 1 leave off?
At the end of season 1 of “The Empress,” Elisabeth and Franz fight, and the Empress decides to return to Bayern, as she cannot take the burden of being the Empress anymore. Kempen reports about 300 commoners at the gates, and Franz asks him to increase the guard at the gates and shoot anyone who dares even to move a muscle.
The revolution is quelled quite underwhelmingly, which was probably a letdown. Elisabeth discovers that she’s pregnant. Franz’s mother, Archduchess Sophie, suggests that Elisabeth should leave Vienna to return home to Bavaria and have her marriage to Franz annulled or stay in the palace and conform.
The series ends with a lot of questions about what might happen next, such as whether Elisabeth can proceed with her return to Bavaria now that she has announced her pregnancy to the world, whether she and Franz will manage to reconcile, and what will happen to the empire now that protests have started.
