Stevie Nicks envisions a sequel for Daisy Jones & The Six, exploring Billy and Daisy's story. Discover the show's mixed reviews and its limited series status.

In the finale, the band parts ways after their last concert. Sam Claflin's character, Billy, inspired by Fleetwood Mac's guitarist Lindsey Buckingham, and Riley Keough's character, Daisy, come close to forming a genuine relationship. However, Daisy ultimately decides to send Billy back to his wife.

In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Nicks shared, "I wish we could explore a scenario where Billy returns after his wife’s death, and they decide to record that final album I always envisioned Lindsey and I would create together. That could make a fantastic second season." She revealed that she discussed this concept with executive producer Reese Witherspoon and Keough, who both found it appealing, though they acknowledged their busy schedules.

Witherspoon played a key role in the project, which was also featured in Reese's Book Club. Nicks commented on Keough's rising stardom, saying, "Riley is on the brink of becoming a big movie star." Despite the obstacles, Nicks remains optimistic about the possibility of the project coming to life. She added, "Before I saw Daisy Jones & The Six, I never imagined it was even possible to portray our experiences in this way."

Nicks and Buckingham, who had a famously complicated romance in the 1970s, shared a tumultuous history. Fleetwood Mac experienced a rollercoaster of highs and lows, particularly following the 2022 passing of member Christine McVie.

In an interview with Vulture in October 2023, Nicks expressed that she sees no compelling reason to reunite with the iconic band.

The series has received a mix of reviews. Darren Franich from Entertainment Weekly described the 10-episode miniseries as starting off absurdly, then evolving into something surprisingly profound, before ultimately veering into overly sentimental territory. Conversely, Sophie Butcher from Empire Magazine found it solid but somewhat underwhelming, highlighting Keough's magnetic presence and the series’ enchanting musical moments. Overall, audiences reacted more favorably, awarding the series an 8.1 rating on IMDb and an 82% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.

While Prime Video presented Daisy Jones & The Six as a limited series, the chances of reassembling the cast appear slim.
