Tiger King 2 is on the way. Netflix has announced that a sequel to its hugely popular true crime series will arrive later this year.
Tiger King 2 is part of Netflix's upcoming slate of new true crime shows and movies. The streaming giant promises "more madness and mayhem," and a trailer released to promote the slate reveals that Tiger King 2 will pick up after the events of the first season. We see incarcerated former zoo keeper Joe Exotic on the phone from jail, his rival Carole Baskin striding down a corridor, and a billboard advertising a $1 million reward for solving the disappearance of Baskin's husband Don Lewis. Check it out below:
