Mindbending X-Men spinoff Legion , a new series from the creative mind of Fargo's Noah Hawley, has been renewed for a second season having scored admirable acclaim and audience ratings since it began in February.

There's currently no official word on key details surrounding the sophomore outing but cast members Dan Stevens, Aubrey Plaza and Jean Smart are all expected to return. Deadline also reports that season two is expected to air on FX in early 2018 with at least as many episodes as season one (eight).
