Get ready for the truth about the next chapter of the acclaimed historical drama, Roots! We've scoured all the latest reports for any news on a potential second season of the epic 2016 miniseries. The 2016 version of Roots on the History channel was created as a complete, four-part event series that powerfully retold the entirety of Alex Haley's novel. It was designed to be a self-contained story, chronicling the incredible journey of Kunta Kinte and his descendants through the era of slavery to their freedom after the Civil War.
Because the series was a limited event that covered its source material from beginning to end, there has been no official announcement or credible industry speculation about a Season 2. The story reached its powerful and intended conclusion. While the impact of Roots continues to be felt, the creators have not indicated any plans to extend the saga with a new season. But in the world of television, you never know what the future holds! Want to be the very first to know if any surprising news about the Roots saga ever breaks?
