It's almost time to head back down to OBX!

Netflix announced Friday that season 2 of Outer Banks will premiere this summer. The streaming giant also unveiled the first photos from the new season.

"Season 2 is going to test our crew like never before. We've turned up the dial on everything fans loved about season one — more mystery, more romance and higher stakes," co-creators and executive producers Jonas Pate, Josh Pate and Shannon Burke said in a statement. "It's a full throttle, action-packed adventure and these photos offer a glimpse into the next chapter for our Pogues. All we can say for now is buckle up, it's going to be a wild ride."

The series stars Chase Stokes (John B.), Madelyn Cline (Sarah Cameron), Madison Bailey (Kiara "Kie"), Jonathan Daviss (Pope), Rudy Pankow (JJ), Austin North (Topper), Charles Esten (Ward Cameron) and Drew Starkey (Rafe Cameron).

Following a successful first season, Netflix renewed Outer Banks last July. Prior to the renewal announcement, co-creator Jonas told Entertainment Weekly that he envisions the series running for four to five seasons.

"Ever since we started, we always viewed it as something that was probably like a four-season, maybe five-season show, but definitely four seasons," he said at the time. "We've sort of long-arced it out pretty far. I'm just hoping that we get a chance to actually tell those stories."

When Stokes, 28, joined The Drew Barrymore Show on Thursday, he opened up about working on season 2 during the COVID-19 pandemic.

"We wrapped production on season 2 about a month ago. So, it's in the can. We're editing away," he said. "We don't have a release date yet, but we're super, super excited about this season. [I'm] treading water with what I should and shouldn't say but … we're excited."

Speaking to PEOPLE in March, Stokes teased how the mystery would continue in the show's sophomore run. "The glory of last year was that nobody knew what was going to happen, nobody knew what was coming," he said at the time. "But I think people are really going to enjoy season 2 … it has a very, very beautiful message."

Outer Banks season 2 will premiere this summer on Netflix.

  • Meta shares sink on AI costs, wary outlook

    STORY: Shares in Facebook-parent company Meta Platforms took a tumble in after-hours trade Wednesday. They sank around 15% after a forecast of higher expenses and weaker-than-expected revenue. The rising costs largely derive from spending on AI and the infrastructure needed to power new products. Meta says total expenses could go as high as $99 billion. Boss Mark Zuckerberg said investment would have to grow “meaningfully” before the company made much revenue from the new services. It’s been building products like a chat assistant meant to drive engagement on its social media platforms. But one analyst told Reuters that investors fear it could all take years to pay off. The warning on costs drove a slide for shares in other big AI players, including Microsoft and Nvidia. Meta’s first-quarter revenue of $36.5 billion was roughly in line with predictions, but its outlook for the April-June period was marginally short of expectations. The company could also now benefit from U.S. moves against rival TikTok. Lawmakers this week passed a measure allowing for a ban on the Chinese-owned short video network. That’s over allegations it poses a threat to national security. However, Meta CFO Susan Li says it’s too early to assess the impact of any such move.
