El Chapo has been hailed as the “new Narcos” since its release on Netflix earlier this year.

The series chronicles the rise and fall of Joaquin ‘El Chapo’ Guzman, who infamously escaped from prison twice and became the most powerful drug trafficker in the world.

Like its predecessor, El Chapo is filmed in Colombia with a mostly-Latino cast.

While Narcos uses a mix of English and Spanish, El Chapo is delivered largely in Spanish.

When will El Chapo season 2 be released on Netflix?

The new season is now just over half-way through its run in the US.

Season one debuted in the US in April and ended in May. Around a month later, all nine episodes were released on Netflix.

Based on this, we expect season two to hit Netflix in November.
