The final episode of The Last Frontier Season 1 left U.S. Marshal Frank Remnick with a ringing phone and a warning that his quiet corner of Alaska is now the center of everything. While Apple TV+ has not yet announced a renewal for a second season, the explosive finale and passionate fan reaction have viewers demanding more. If the show returns, these are the five biggest questions a new season must tackle.
What’s Next for Havlock and Sidney?
The Season 1 finale concluded with a massive cliffhanger. Dominic Cooper’s character, Havlock, faked his own death. In the final scene, he calls Frank, revealing he is alive and planning to break his wife, Sidney, out of custody. This sets the stage for a major new story. The show’s creators have even discussed the possibility of the couple becoming a “Bonnie and Clyde-style vigilante duo” on the run.
Actors Haley Bennett and Dominic Cooper are excited about the potential. Cooper described the challenge of playing Havlock, who is a former Navy SEAL, mathematician, and lecturer, keeping the audience guessing about his true motives. Bennett sees great potential in where their characters could go next. Their complicated relationship, built on both love and shared conspiracy, would be a central focus of a new season.
“We’ve certainly talked a lot about where they end up, maybe a beach somewhere,” said co-creator Jon Bokenkamp about potential storylines for the couple.
Can Frank Remnick Ever Have a Normal Life?
Jason Clarke’s Frank Remnick spent Season 1 trying to protect his town, his family, and a devastating secret about his past. By the finale, he seemed ready to move on. He confessed to his wife and son about planting evidence related to his daughter’s murder and planned to open a bed and breakfast. The final phone call from Havlock shatters that dream.
Bokenkamp notes that Frank’s drive to answer the call of duty is a core part of his character. “I hope what’s relatable about Frank is that he will always answer that call,” he said. “He doesn’t have to, but it’s who he is.” A second season would force Frank to choose between the peaceful life his family wants and the pursuit of justice, all while new threats linked to the exposed Archive 6 secrets emerge.
Who Were Jacque Bradford’s Powerful Allies?
Alfre Woodard’s character, CIA official Jacque Bradford, met a dramatic end in the finale, falling from a dam after a brutal axe fight with Sidney. However, her corruption within the Atwater Protocol was likely not a solo operation. The Archive 6 file she tried to suppress contains details on numerous illegal CIA targets.
With this information now public, a new season would likely explore the fallout. Other powerful figures within or outside the government who were complicit in Bradford’s schemes could seek revenge or cover their tracks. Frank, who helped expose the archive, and Sidney, who was central to the plot, would be prime targets. This opens the door for new villains and expands the conspiracy beyond the Alaskan wilderness.

How Will the Show’s Location and Scope Change?
The Last Frontier began as a tense manhunt in the Alaskan snow. By the end, it transformed into a full-blown espionage thriller about government secrets. The creators have acknowledged this shift. “We’ve pretty much exhausted a lot of stories in Alaska,” co-creator Richard D’Ovidio admitted, suggesting the setting might change.
With Havlock and Sidney potentially on the run and Frank possibly drawn into a wider conspiracy, Season 2 could take the characters beyond Alaska. Bokenkamp hinted that the U.S. Marshals hunt fugitives globally, meaning the story could go almost anywhere. However, the stunning Alaskan landscape was a major character in Season 1, so finding a balance between new locations and the show’s original feel would be a key challenge.
When Can Fans Expect Season 2?
The most immediate question is when, or if, Season 2 will happen. As of early December 2025, Apple TV+ has not made a renewal decision. The network typically evaluates viewership data, critical reception, and audience engagement after a season ends. The Season 1 finale aired on December 5, 2025, so an announcement could come in the following weeks or months.
Fan demand appears strong. On review pages, audiences have left comments like, “PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE RENEW LAST FRONTIER!!!!!” and “The reason I subscribed to Apple TV was because of this series.” If the show is renewed, production would take time. One industry prediction suggests a potential Season 2 might not air until 2027. For now, all ten episodes of the first season are available to stream on Apple TV+.
