Elizabeth Craft and Sarah Fain are the creators of the Fox television program Fantasy Island, a fantasy drama. It is a continuation of which keeps up with the original 1977 series. A preview special called Welcome to the New Fantasy Island aired two days prior to the series’ August 10, 2021, launch.
With a focus on the “what if” issues (both big and tiny) that keep us up at night, FANTASY ISLAND is set at a luxurious resort where guests can have their fantasies fulfilled in almost any way they like. However, these requests rarely come true as planned. Each episode will feature emotive, thought-provoking tales about characters who arrive on Fantasy Island with hopes and goals and leave having gained wisdom and undergone transformations as a result of the island’s magical reality.
The Story Review Of Fantasy Island Season 1
The first season of Fantasy Island really caught us off guard. Elena Roarke (Roselyn Sanchez), whose main responsibility it was to operate an opulent resort and fulfill the wishes of all of her guests, was introduced to the audience. Despite having a demeanor that might have come across as a little too polished, she somehow found a way to provide those who decided to go out on an expedition to the mysterious island with the greatest amount of fulfillment.
Additionally, she had a way of bringing out the best and worst in people who went on vacation with an open mind to indulge in whatever fantasies they had.
Yes, the premise is a little bit unsettling. But it also made viewers curious about the escapades of Elena, Ruby (Kiara Barnes), and their dependable pilot and driver Javier (John Gabriel Rodriguez). Naturally, this has people wondering if Fantasy Island will have a second season.
What To Expect In The Fantasy Island Season 2
Guests at the opulent resort can once again indulge in some of their wildest fantasies on Fantasy Island, which is open for another season. Roselyn Sanchez comes back as Elena Roarke, the daughter of the original Mr. Roarke from Fantasy Island. The revival maintains the same basic idea as the original series from the 1970s, with new guests visiting each week who bring their own emotional baggage. These characters want to come to a pleasant conclusion about themselves at the end of the episodes. However, that isn’t always the case.
The first season of the show ended with Ruby Akuda (Kiara Barnes) and her husband Mel (Adain Bradley) encountering each other on the island while he was stuck between this world and the hereafter. Eventually, Mel passes away into “eternity” after the couple has an agonizing 24 hours. Ruby is immediately apparent as Elena Roarke’s (Roselyn Sanchez) second-in-command once her husband has left.

Fantasy Island viewers can anticipate finding out more about Elena and Fernando’s relationship once season 2 starts. Fans of the series may naturally expect some heartbreaking moments from each of the new characters as new visitors arrive on the island.
The Cast Of The Fantasy Island 2
Here are the people we may anticipate returning for Fantasy Island season 2 based on the circumstances from season 1:
- Elena Roarke, played by Roselyn Sanchez, as the island’s MC and is in charge of the resort and its visitors.
- Kiara Barnes as Elena’s assistant Ruby Okoro
- Pilot Javier, played by John Gabriel Rodriguez, assigned to transport visitors to and from the resort
Although the trio is the show’s current cast member, more could still appear on Fantasy Island. In fact, viewers might catch a glimpse of performers from other Fox shows traveling to the resort for a tropical getaway. Fox Entertainment President Michael Thorn hinted there appears to be a remote possibility that Rob Lowe and Ronen Rubinstein from 9-1-1: Lone Star will shortly encounter Elena and her crew. Of course, since nothing similar like this has been confirmed, this is just wishful thinking.
When The Fantasy Island Season 2 Will Release?
We’re not entirely sure, sadly. Originally, the second season of Fantasy Island was supposed to debut this fall, at the same time as other dramas like 9-1-1. Although there hasn’t been any official announcement regarding a precise release date, Roselyn did give her fans an update on TikTok back in July.
The actress informed viewers at the time that it would take some time before they get the chance to visit the resort once more. She made it clear in Spanish that the second season of Fantasy Island would debut in the first week of January 2023.

You can watch the new season in real-time if you don’t have access to Fox via streaming services like YouTube TV, fuboTV, and Hulu + Live TV. Before committing to a monthly membership, you can test out each platform using a free seven-day trial.
