Ethos Season 2 Teaser Trailer: Netflix Drama Returns November 12
Six years after Season 1, Berkun Oya's Turkish drama returns to Netflix with four new episodes, and the first teaser is out.
Netflix has released the teaser trailer for Ethos Season 2, and the Turkish drama's four new episodes arrive on Netflix on Thursday, November 12, 2026, exactly six years after the first season premiered.
Ethos, known in Turkey as Bir Başkadır, is written and directed by Berkun Oya and produced by KREK Film in Istanbul. The first season debuted on November 12, 2020, with eight episodes, and followed people from very different corners of Turkish society whose lives cross in unexpected ways.
At the center of Season 1 were Meryem (Öykü Karayel), a part-time cleaner from a conservative family who starts having fainting spells, and Peri (Defne Kayalar), the secular psychiatrist she visits. Their sessions became the hinge for a wider story about class, faith and the distance between neighbors who share a city but not a world.
Netflix's cast list for the new season brings back Karayel, Kayalar, Fatih Artman and Funda Eryiğit, alongside Onur Saylak, Cihat Süvarioğlu, Gökhan Yıkılkan, Oğulcan Arman Uslu, Eda Akalın, İdil Çelik, Cemre Zişan Sağbır, Göktuğ Yıldırım and Nur Sürer. Oya himself also appears in the cast.
The streamer is describing Season 2 in three ideas: zeitgeist, unexpected encounters and new conflicts. The teaser, posted to Netflix's YouTube channel on November 7, plays to that mood. It opens on a line of dialogue, "Is anything more precious than this lovely conversation of ours?", and then cuts between characters meeting by chance and tensions starting to surface.
Netflix hasn't said much about the plot, so the teaser is mostly about tone: quiet rooms, long looks and conversations that seem polite until they aren't. That fits a show that built its following on talk rather than action.
Season 2 will be four episodes, half the length of Season 1, with Evrim Zeybek, Ali Farkhonde and Oya producing. All four episodes drop on Netflix on November 12. Season 1 is streaming there now if you want to catch up first.
