The Waterfront, which is inspired by true events, follows the Buckley family as they try to regain control of their failing North Carolina fishing empire. But as their business begins crumble while patriarch Harlan Buckley suffers from two heart attacks, his wife Belle and son Cane must do whatever's necessary to keep the family enterprises afloat. 'As their attempts spiral out of control and into treacherous waters, Harlan steps back in to take command," Netflix's synopsis continues. "Facing her own demons, Buckley daughter Bree – an addict in recovery who's lost custody of her son Diller – finds herself entangled in a complicated relationship that could threaten the family's future forever. Just one day after the debut of its first season, The Waterfront has already claimed the No. 1 spot on Netflix's U.S. TV chart. The finale delivered a shocking twist and teased the future of the Buckley family, leaving many viewers wondering what comes next. Here's everything to know about a potential Season 2 of The Waterfront, including its renewal status, what it could be about, which characters could return and more. Warning: Spoilers ahead for The Waterfront Season 1. Will There Be The Waterfront Season 2 On Netflix? The Waterfront. (L to R) Maria Bello as Belle Buckley, Jake Weary as Cane Buckley in episode 107 of ... More The Waterfront. Netflix has not yet renewed The Waterfront for a second season. The series recently premiered on the platform on June 19, and the decision will likely depend on how well the first season performs over the coming weeks and months. While talking to various media outlets, series creator Kevin Williamson has been optimistic about a second season. 'I would love very much a chance to write Season 2, because I feel like I'm just getting started with this story and this family,' he recently told Williamson also shared what his hopes are for Season 2 in an interview with TV Insider. "The end of the first season feels like it's still moving because you don't want it to stop, right? So that's a good sign, I think, for Season 2," he said. "I would like to see it just keep moving. I would like to see the family come together to stave off some universal villain. In a different interview, the creator teased to Tudum what the next installment could be about, and how it will shift from Harlan and Cane's story to another character. 'This season was about Harlan and Cane — how they reconciled their differences and how they're going to move forward,' he told Tudum, hinting that Belle will likely taking a bigger role in the future. 'Now Belle is a little more front and center. She's not living in the shadows.' In Season 2, viewers will also hopefully see more of Shawn Wilson (Rafael L. Silv) – Harlan's secret son and Cane's half-brother. 'Just getting to work with Rafa more would be incredible. I love Rafa dearly. The whole cast is incredible. There's a bond there that can't be broken. Even if we don't do a Season 2, we're all gonna be friends for life. I love them so dearly,' he told TV Insider. 'Rafa, too, that's my boy. He's such an incredible actor, and that would be cool to see more of and Cane and Shawn for Season 2, for sure.' Which Characters Could Return For The Waterfront Season 2? The Waterfront. (L to R) Humberly González as Jenna Tate, Jake Weary as Cane Buckley in episode 103 ... More of The Waterfront. All of the main cast of The Waterfront could reprise their roles for Season 2, especially the Buckleys. However, Topher Grace is not expected to return, as his character, Grady, was shot and killed by Cane in the Season 1 finale. What Could The Waterfront Season 2 Be About? The Waterfront. Maria Bello as Belle Buckley in episode 106 of The Waterfront. With Belle Buckley taking on a greater role in a potential Season 2, the second installment of The Waterfront could revolve around her relationship with the Parkers. In the finale, the crime family has seemingly chosen her to be their point of contact. 'She's much more rational. She's not going to make decisions based on her emotions. She's too smart and levelheaded for that,' Williamson said to Tudum. 'They see a true partnership with her in a way that they'll never have with Harlan.' While this may be good for Belle, Harlan may have mixed feelings upon learning that his wife is working with the enemy without anyone knowing. Harlan's portrayer, Holt McCallany, told Tudum that he believes his character would be willing to talk through Belle's latest betrayal. 'Sometimes people make the wrong decisions for the right reasons,' he explained. 'If someone hurts Harlan, he has to ask, 'Was it their intention to hurt me? Or was it their intention to protect me?' Even though he wouldn't like what Belle did, she did it out of love for him and their family.' Another promising update? Williamson hasn't just mapped out a second season – he's also planned a third installment of the crime drama. 'I'm hoping I get the chance to tell those stories. I do think it's a fun show, and it's unlike anything I've ever done. And I just hope people enjoy it,' he told ScreenRant. When Could The Waterfront Season 2 Be Released On Netflix? The Waterfront. (L to R) Melissa Benoist as Bree Buckley, Rafael Silva as Shawn West in episode 102 ... More of The Waterfront. The first season of The Waterfront began filming in Wilmington, NC in 2024, before premiering on Netflix in June 2025. Season 2 could potentially arrive sometime in late 2026 or early 2027 – depending on when (or if) Netflix officially greenlights the next installment and when filming begins. Stay tuned for more updates on The Waterfront Season 2. Season one of The Waterfront is now streaming on Netflix. Watch the official trailer below.

The Rob Ford Netflix documentary is extra surreal for me. Because I'm in it

Many Torontonians are, thanks to a new Netflix documentary , reliving Rob Ford's wildly chaotic, world-headline-making years as the city's mayor and chief magistrate. Watching ' Trainwreck: Mayor of Mayhem ,' was extra surreal for me because I'm in it, among three reporters, three former mayoral staffers and two city councillors whose recollections narrate Ford's unlikely election, early mayoral success, crack-fuelled scandal and untimely death. Reactions to the doc, since it went live Tuesday, are as fascinating and varied as Torontonians' evaluations of Ford as mayor, ranging from martyred best-mayor-ever to a natural human disaster for the city. Ontario Premier Doug Ford says a new Netflix documentary about his late brother Rob Ford is "disgusting." The doc titled 'Trainwreck: Mayor of Mayhem" chronicles Rob Ford's rise to power as Toronto mayor in 2010 and his chaotic time in office. Speaking at a news conference in Toronto, Doug Ford said he wasn't going to watch the film, and he doesn't see eye-to-eye with the creators. (June 17, 2025 / The Canadian Press) In 2016, when asked about Ford's death from a rare cancer, I replied that it was a huge human tragedy for him and his family. For the city, his reign was collective trauma that would take years for all of us to work through. We're still doing the work. Some reviewers have questioned why do the doc, and why now . The reality is that Canada, where the Ford story is known, is a small part of Netflix's viewership. This is a fast-paced retelling aimed at a global audience including those who had never heard of him. Social media reactions from viewers in the U.S., England and elsewhere are versions of 'I remember a bit about this guy but the stuff in here is CRAZY, can it all even be true? And in Canada??' I sympathize because, even though I watched Ford like a hawk as the Star's city hall bureau chief, I had forgotten how many embarrassing videos surfaced before he finally went to rehab. Torontonians' reactions seem split between Ford fans who, like his brother Doug the premier, think that making a doc is 'disgusting,' those who say the filmmakers made a balanced and informative recounting, and those who say glowing tributes and missing details hide lasting damage Ford did to the city's reputation, transit, finances and more. My take is that U.K.-based director Shianne Brown and her team did a great job in the run time they had, less than 50 minutes, and within the confines of a 'Trainwreck' series focused on promising things that went horribly wrong. I can say from my window into the process that they took the challenge seriously and did exhaustive research, including three background interviews with me before I went on camera. Could the Rob Ford experience have sustained a 90-minute treatment, or longer? Absolutely. The doc doesn't mention the saga of Ford mugging my then-colleague Daniel Dale of his BlackBerry , trying to ruin Daniel's reputation with a heinous falsehood and being forced to apologize . Also missing are Ford's visits to Taste of the Danforth and the Biermarkt, as well as wandering through city hall at 2:30 a.m. with a half-drunk bottle of brandy . A friend who worked at city hall and knew Ford well told me the story is crying out for a multi-part, Scorsese-esque dramatization. Brown artfully covered the question 'What happened?' A longer run time would have allowed a look at 'Why?', and a deeper exploration of the most complicated person I have met in 36 years of reporting. The film mentions the strong influence of Doug Ford Sr., the rags-to-riches millionaire patriarch and one-term Progressive Conservative MPP who was 'tough' on the kids but sparked their ambition before his own premature cancer death. There is more to consider on that. In 2014, I examined why the Fords had no 'off switch,' no matter what came at them, by talking to Doug Ford and family friends. Doug Sr. used to call his four privileged children's unlimited potential 'the gold mine.' 'Any time he got ticked off he'd say, 'You aren't mining the gold!' ' Doug recalled. 'The gold mine, it doesn't have to be financial. You have an opportunity and take advantage of the opportunity.' In 2010 when Rob Ford launched his mayoral campaign at an Etobicoke convention hall , he choked up looking skyward and said: 'He was my idol ... I know you're with me Dad, I know you're with me.' For the 2014 story , when Rob Ford was deep in addiction and scandal, people who knew Doug Sr. and his sons told me that the father who ignited Rob's passion for politics was the only person who could have forced him to temporarily quit to get healthy — but he was gone. The documentary doesn't include the mayor captured by police surveillance drinking in the Etobicoke park named after his father. He seemed haunted by the loss of Doug Sr., the pressures of being mayor of Canada's biggest city — a job he appeared to dislike except for public appearances and helping individuals — and multiple investigations into his conduct. In the documentary, I note that Rob attempted to demonize and delegitimize media, hitting hardest those most likely to expose or criticize him, before U.S. President Donald Trump did the same. Part of the reason Ford is still important is that he was a warning that the populist ability to buffalo through any allegation, with bravado and no shame, is an incredibly powerful political weapon. Something else I felt when the documentary ended was a phantom-limb-like memory of my exhaustion trying to ensure we were keeping up with a seemingly inexhaustible mayor on an extended rampage. I was seeing my wife and young kids so little, and thinking about Ford so much, that I sought and got a nine-month fellowship — my rehab from Rob Ford — at U of T's Massey College. But on a fellowship trip to Berlin I opened a newspaper, aiming to test my high school German, only to see a front-page story headlined 'Crack-rauchen Bürgermeister' — crack-smoking mayor — and knew that I could not escape Rob Ford. Later, when I was back at work and Ford was back from rehab, my doctor sent me to a private clinic for my first routine colonoscopy. As an anesthetist prepared to put me out, the physician about to perform the procedure asked what I do for a living. When I told him, he beamed and said he knew Ford from the Muskoka addiction clinic, adding 'I like Rob!' My stomach lurched. Ford Nation folks hated the Star, and by extension me. 'But him,' the physician said, pointing at the anesthetist as the needle slid into my arm, 'he LOVES Rob Ford.' 'Oh my God,' I thought just before the lights went out, 'they're going to kill me.' Spoiler: They were completely professional and I survived. But I couldn't escape Rob Ford. I still can't, and we still can't. We're still doing the work.
