Berlin, October 29, 2024 - The entire fate of the Habsburg Empire rests in Elisabeths (Devrim Lingnau) hands. But the second born child is a girl too. The hopes of the people, the imperial couple, and Empress Mother Sophie (Melika Foroutan) in particular, are left unfulfilled. A male heir would have ensured political stability and the continuation of the empire. The pressure on Elisabeth increases, while she fights for her love for Emperor Franz (Philip Froissant), for her daughters, and - against all conventions - to be an empress who gives people hope.
The trailer and character art for the second season of the beloved drama series is released today.
The Empress Season 2 exclusively and worldwide on Netflix from November 22, 2024.
Synopsis The Empress (Season 2)
The first crisis is barely over and the young couple wants to enjoy their fresh marital bliss when dark clouds gather over Sch nbrunn Palace: Franz (Philip Froissant) unexpectedly faces a powerful adversary in Europe. And Elisabeth (Devrim Lingnau) comes under great pressure, because an heir to the throne is to secure the future of the empire as quickly as possible.
When fate strikes with all its power, the couples love threatens to finally break apart. And Elisabeth must fight not only for her family, but also for the integrity of her soul...
