Starz already is smitten with its Marquise de Merteuil and the Vicomte de Valmont: The network has renewed Dangerous Liaisons for a second season, ahead of its November debut.

“Dangerous Liaisons is addictive, provocative and beautifully rendered,” said Kathryn Busby, President of Original Programming at Starz. “This prelude to the famed 18th century novel illuminates pre-revolution Paris at its most decadent. We are confident that by the end of Season 1 viewers will be craving more scheming and seduction.”

The drama stars Alice Englert as the Marquise de Merteuil and Nicholas Denton as Vicomte de Valmont. It focuses on the origin story of the two iconic characters when they met on the eve of the revolution in Paris. Kosar Ali, Carice Van Houten, Hilton Pelser, Fisayo Akinade, Michael McElhatton, Nathanael Saleh, Colette Dalal Tchantcho, Hakeem Kae-Kazim and Tom Wlaschiha also star.

The first season consists of eight episodes and is from showrunner Harriet Warner, Colin Callender’s Playground Entertainment and Tony Krantz’s Flame Ventures in association with Lionsgate TV. It was created and written by Warner, who also executive produces alongside Callendar, Krantz, Scott Huff, Bethan Jones, and Christopher Hampton.

“We’re greatly appreciative to Starz and Lionsgate for their ongoing support of the show,” said Callender. “We’re very excited to share Harriet Warner’s brilliant vision for season two, which will see our world expand and the relationships between our characters deepen in thrilling, dangerous new ways.”

Season 1 will premiere Sunday, Nov. 6 at midnight on the Starz app and on Starz streaming. On linear, it will debut on the network at 8 p.m. ET/PT. Season 2 is expected to begin production in early 2023 in Prague.
