Reese Witherspoon: Stevie Nicks has sparked fresh excitement around Daisy Jones & The Six with a pitch for a second season, shared recently with executive producer Reese Witherspoon and series star Riley Keough. Based on Taylor Jenkins Reid’s bestselling novel, which was inspired by Nicks’ legendary band Fleetwood Mac, the Prime Video series was initially presented as a limited series. However, Nicks’ new vision could bring the story back to life, delving deeper into the complex dynamics of the fictional band.
In a recent Rolling Stone interview, Nicks, 76, shared her vision for a potential continuation of the series: “I wish that it could go into what if… had Billy come back after Billy’s wife died and knocked on her door, and they decided to make that last record that I always hoped that Lindsey and I would make.” According to Nicks, both Witherspoon and Keough “loved the idea,” though they’re currently tied up with other projects.
The first season of Daisy Jones & The Six captivated audiences with its parallels to Fleetwood Mac’s rock-and-roll era, and Riley Keough’s portrayal of the Nicks-inspired character Daisy Jones resonated strongly with fans. Nicks, who initially hesitated to watch the show, ultimately found herself moved by its accuracy. “I didn’t even want to see it because I thought I was going to hate it so much,” she admitted, only to find herself captivated. “It was very similar to me,” she said, noting Keough’s “snappier” approach but lauding the similarities between Keough’s Daisy and her own personality.
The season finale left fans with a memorable scene that saw Billy (played by Sam Claflin) at Daisy’s door, hinting at unresolved feelings between the two. In Nicks’ proposed storyline, she imagines an emotional journey that mirrors her own hopes for a final collaboration with Fleetwood Mac’s Lindsey Buckingham. This concept would undoubtedly strike a chord with fans who crave closure for the characters.
Although Daisy Jones & The Six garnered multiple accolades and critical acclaim — including two Emmy wins — neither Witherspoon nor Keough have confirmed any plans for a Season 2. Witherspoon’s production company, Hello Sunshine, has yet to announce any continuation of the series. However, given the strong audience response and Stevie Nicks’ vision, it’s clear the door remains open. Fans of the show and Fleetwood Mac alike are hopeful that Nicks’ idea will inspire the production team to give Daisy Jones and Billy Dunne one more encore.
