What Could Happen in War Season 2?
War revolves around the divorce between Morgan Henderson, a wealthy technology entrepreneur, and Carla Duval, a successful film star. The collapse of their high-profile marriage threatens to become one of London’s most sensational legal battles.
Carla is represented by Taylor & Byrne, while Morgan’s interests are handled by Cathcarts & Sons. The plot follows the two teams as they turn the breakdown of a relationship into a professional contest. The lawyers must anticipate their opponents’ moves and protect their clients’ reputations, all while figuring out how much they’re willing to compromise their principles in order to win.
While War season 2 has been confirmed, few details about the plot have been revealed at the time of writing. We do know that it will centre on a defamation case and star Marissa Tomei, Kelly Macdonald, and David Harewood.
