May 13, 2026

Apple TV announced today that Margo's Got Money Troubles has been renewed for a second season. The news comes a week ahead of the dramedy's freshman finale. Since its April debut, the series has garnered high praise from both critics and viewers alike.

"Embarking on the adventure of bringing Margo to the screen has been one of the greatest joys of my life," said executive producer and star, Elle Fanning. "When I first read Rufi's stunning story, it felt wholly original and most importantly human, and then with David's writing, along with our epic cast of heart-wrenching performances, it truly felt like we had something special. Having the opportunity to bring more of Margo's troubles, creativity, fearless spirit and authenticity to audiences with a second season makes me incredibly happy and excited. I can promise everyone they're in for a wild, messy and beautiful ride."

"'Margo's Got Money Troubles' was an irresistible proposition to me from day one," said creator, executive producer and writer David E. Kelley. "I fell in love with Rufi's world and unpredictable characters, and it's been rewarding to see audiences embrace this series. We can't wait to continue this story with our partners at Apple and A24."

Based on Rufi Thorpe's bestselling novel of the same name, the series follows Margo, the daughter of an ex-Hooter's waitress and ex-pro wrestler. A recent college dropout and aspiring writer, she is forced to make her way with a new baby, a mounting pile of bills, and a dwindling amount of ways to pay them.
