We don’t blame you if you’re still coming down from that finale. What will Season Two of Barbarians be about?
Barbarians has been a fixture in Netflix’s Top 10 list in late October, so the series seems like a shoo-in for a Season Two order. Barbarians just came into the world on October 23, 2020, so Netflix (typically one to announce next-season plans a couple months after a premiere) hasn’t made any Season Two announcements yet. You might have to hold off on your chest-thumping, fireside party/ceremony/Germanic rave for now. And if we see a Season Two, where, exactly, in history the show would hone in on? Here’s everything we know about the future of Barbarians so far. Of course, as with pretty much any Netflix series that cracks the service’s hallowed Top 10 list nowadays, newfound historians of first-century Germany are wondering if they’ll see Barbarians follow up with its main players after the Battle of Teutoburg Forest. Still up in the air is how much of that Folkwin/Thusnelda romance happened behind the scenes, though. As is depicted in the Netflix show, a Germanic alliance managed to take down three Roman Legions. was a significant-and still, oft-cited-event in German history. (The dragons most certainly are not.) But like History Channel’s Vikings, Barbarians is grounded in true historical events. Yeah, the blood, sex, and tears are there. Barbarians, a German historical drama that debuted on Netlflix last week, is a little different than Thrones, though.
