Netflix has officially announced that Disenchantment Part Two will premiere this September, allowing viewers to once again explore the kingdom of Dreamland.
Created by Matt Groening, the animated fantasy-comedy is set to return early this fall. Groening, also known for The Simpsons and Futurama, maintains his signature animation style in this series.
The first season of Disenchantment debuted in August 2018, introducing audiences to a whimsical medieval world.
The 10-episode season followed Bean (voiced by Abbi Jacobson), a rebellious princess with a penchant for drinking; Luci (Eric Andre), her mischievous personal demon; and Elfo (Nat Faxon), an optimistic elf who also serves as her friend and potential love interest.
The season finale, titled Dreamland Falls, delivered shocking revelations—Bean’s mother, Queen Dagmar (Sharon Horgan), was revealed as the one who attempted to assassinate King Zøg (John DiMaggio).
Meanwhile, Elfo was presumed dead but was last seen washed up on an unfamiliar shoreline, leading to speculation that he may have landed on Mermaid Island and could somehow return.
His fate remains uncertain, as does the truth about his heritage, since his father’s claim that he is only half-elf has yet to be confirmed. Luci’s whereabouts are also unknown, setting the stage for further mysteries in the upcoming installment.
Netflix has set Disenchantment Part Two’s premiere date for September 20. To promote the return, the streaming giant released a teaser poster that playfully mimics Game of Thrones, featuring the tagline, “Her throne is calling.”
Alongside the poster, Netflix shared a brief summary of where the story left off: “Elfo is gone. Dreamland is deserted. Princess Bean is on a mission.”
This mission likely refers to Bean’s quest to uncover her destiny—something her mother repeatedly hinted at in the finale. Additionally, Bean appeared to manifest mysterious abilities when she was struck by energy from a crystal ball, an intriguing plot point that may be further explored in the new season.

It remains unclear whether Part Two will consist of 10 episodes like the first season or if it will feature a longer run.
While the debut season received mixed reviews from critics, there is potential for Groening to refine the show’s direction. Fans also continue to speculate that Disenchantment exists within the same universe as Futurama, with the possibility of subtle Easter eggs or even crossovers.
If the connection is confirmed, it could imply that Dreamland is not a medieval kingdom from the past, but rather a futuristic society with medieval-like characteristics.
As Groening adapts to the Netflix format, Disenchantment Part Two has a chance to build on its foundation and address some of the concerns raised by viewers.
With Netflix’s track record of producing binge-worthy content, there is hope that this collaboration will lead to a stronger and more engaging continuation of the series.
While many questions remain about the direction of this “un-fairytale,” the official global release date has now been set, and fans can look forward to returning to Dreamland this fall.
