Keep Breathing Season 2: Will Keep Breathing Have A Second Season? Here What We Know

Keep Breathing landed on Netflix programming on July 28, 2022, it immediately placed itself in 5th place in the top ten among the most followed programs of the moment. A six-part miniseries that tells the drama of the protagonist Liv (played by Melissa Barrera), torn between the survival instinct after an airplane crash and the inner struggle against the ghosts of her past.

Although Keep Breathing has been quite successful, there was also a good part of the public who did not totally like this content. On the one hand, it did not convince the type of narration, due to a too slow pace and the often pressing presence of excessive flashbacks (events from the past shown through Liv’s memories). While from another, the ending leaves free interpretation to the viewer and therefore does not put a stop to the story. If you haven’t seen Keep Breathing yet, the rest of the article contains spoilers about the first season.

Will Keep Breathing Season 2 Be Done?

Precisely this open ending could be the input for a new season, both to tell what will happen to Liv after returning home and to dispel the doubts that remain unresolved and fill some gaps.

A spokesperson for Netflix in an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk explained that at the time of writing this article, on August 9, 2022, a second season is not planned, as Keep Breathing was born as a self-contained miniseries. However, as written at the beginning of the article, Keep Breathing has slipped to the top of the Netflix charts, and consequently, the streaming giant could decide to make a sequel based on the approval rating; as indeed it has already done in the past with other contents.

What Could The Second Season Of Keep Breathing Be About?

The scene with which the series ends left free interpretation to the viewer, essentially orienting him toward two possibilities, as can be read in our explanation of the ending of Keep Breathing. In both cases, the epilogue is the same, namely Liv giving birth to her child. On the one hand, it could be a desire from her subconscious while she is unconscious and on the other an event that happened later, but which is shown to us in advance before even showing us that Liv survived.

A hypothetical second season could, first of all, explain better what and what was only the fruit of his imagination; after that the plot could continue showing us the life of the “new Liv”, the one that she has finally learned to breathe and take better care of herself.

Another fundamental point of the story is the reason for Liv’s departure from which it all began: the search for her mother. Through the flashbacks of her past, we discovered that after abandoning her as a child, Liv’s mom regularly sends her letters that her husband keeps hidden from her daughter. When a grown-up Liv discovers her letters and confronts her father, the latter explains that it was her mother who abandoned them while they remained in the same place consequently if she had wanted to return she would have done so already, without having to write symbolic letters.

As viewers, however, we only saw the father’s version and the confused memories of a child Liv, so even a chapter based on the mother’s perspective – and an eventual reunion with her daughter – could be another topic to be covered in the sequel.

In our explanation of the Keep Breathing ending, we also speculated that everything we saw was just a dream from Liv while she was passed out. Or rather a sort of near-death experience, in which the protagonist has seen herself spending her whole life in front of her; and once it came to the time of her potential future – the birth of her child – she opened her eyes again. This theory stems from the fact that many of the events shown seemed far too surreal to be true.  Liv survived a little too much and had a little too much luck in most cases, whereas in normal reality she probably would have gone differently.

However, all these clichés could also have another explanation linked to the fulcrum of the story, which is not Liv’s physical adventure in the woods, but the inner struggle she needs to make peace with herself to start “breathing”. It is no coincidence that her scenes linked to her past often and willingly take precedence over the present, thus putting the side of survival in the background; and in doing so everything is in fact “liquidated” with trivial situations and sometimes bordering on ridicule, to allow the viewer to focus on the true inner drama that Liv is experiencing. To find out if Keep Breathing will have a second season, we just have to wait and allow the first season to “breathe” a little before Netflix decides to renew it.
