CULVER CITY, Calif. — October 22, 2026 — Following its massive global debut, Prime Video has officially renewed Carrie for a second season.

Going Beyond Prom Night
Flanagan’s bold reimaging brings modern complexity to Stephen King’s seminal 1974 horror novel, exploring the brutal realities of high school life, social media, and awakening telekinetic powers. However, the creators emphasize that Carrie’s story is far from over—prom night was only the beginning.
“Carrie is connecting with both longtime Stephen King fans and a new generation altogether… We’re excited by where he and Stephen plan to take the story.”
— Peter Friedlander, Head of Global Television at Amazon MGM Studios
“From the beginning, we imagined a story that goes far beyond the prom, and I’m incredibly grateful for Stephen’s trust and support in exploring what comes next.”
— Mike Flanagan, Showrunner & Executive Producer
“Mike Flanagan and I are excited about what comes next. It’s bound to be thrilling.”
— Stephen King, Executive Producer
