Rachel New, the series of the writer also spoke about the series and its renewal, per Deadline. She said the following:

“I’m absolutely thrilled at the news that Miss Scarlet and The Duke will be back for a season two. I have so much in store for Duk, Eliza and her crew. With even more action, adventure and of course a nice big dollop of romance, it’s going to be a cracking season. The fans are going to love it.”
