<p>A post on the show’s Twitter account said: “We’re back. TOP BOY Season 2 begins filming this spring.</p>
<p>“@AshleyWalters82, @TheRealKano, @onlymikes_ and @LittleSimz will return as Dushane, Sully, Jamie and Shelley. Stay tuned.”</p>
<p>Before the first series launched on Netflix, Drake said he wanted to bring the show back because it reminded him of where he grew up in Toronto.</p>
<p>He said: “I was watching it on YouTube and I really became attached to it, I became attached to the characters, the story really drew me in.</p>

<p>“I think there are so many parallels between Toronto and London; obviously we don’t have the same accent but we speak the same, so it reminded me of people I grew up with or guys that I know and situations that I’ve witnessed.</p>
<p>“I just really felt super-connected right away and then it disappeared on me and I was like ‘Whoa, wait, what happened?’ I had to do my research and I found out it had been ultimately cancelled.</p>
<p>“I brought it up to my brother and my manager, my partner in crime who always is the best facilitator I know, and if anybody could get it done, he could get it done.</p>
<p>“And I said ‘We should try and bring this back, I think the entire UK would appreciate it’ and at first it was just for me, I was like ‘I need this back’, and then I realised how much it meant to so many people.</p>
<p>“Of course you mention something to him and he’s going to go full throttle 100%, so next thing I knew we were sitting in a room with Netflix and here we are.”</p>
