"For those that Hannah left behind, that story is just beginning. The story of their recovery is just beginning," Yorkey said. "Season 2 is also about healing and about how we go on because people always say that you have to go on, but how do we after something like that?"
Netflix has not yet announced when "13 Reasons Why" drops on the streaming platform. It's assumed that the show will be out in mid-2018.
