Be careful, spoilers. The following paragraphs reveal some plot material from the first season of Control Z. If you don’t want to know anything, don’t read on.
Mexican teen drama between Elite, 13 Reasons Why and Gossip Girl, Control Z was a hit with the public when it was released on Netflix in 2020. A season 2 was then quickly announced by the platform. As the new episodes land this August 4, here’s what we can expect from season 2.
A new hacker?
Control Z features high school students from an upscale Mexican establishment who are threatened by a hacker divulging their innermost secrets, and these revelations have sparked inevitable drama. An outsider student Sofia (Ana Valeria Becerril) will become the only hope of the other students to find the hacker, who is rampant in high school.
After several twists and turns and tragedies, the first season of the Mexican series ended on a steep cliffhanger: Javier (Michael Ronda) was shot by Gerry (Patricio Gallardo), and the fate of the young man remained in suspense. This incident followed the revelation of the identity of the hacker, who is none other than Raul (Yankel Stevan) who was obsessed with Sofia and his desire to reveal the true faces of his friends.

If the trailer is to be believed, Control Z season 2 is set to begin directly after the events of the end of the inaugural season. Dead because of the actions of the hacker and Gerry, Luis (Luis Curiel) had recorded a video denouncing him. But the students will not be quiet because someone has taken control of Luis’ social networks to avenge him.
Javier is off the hook after being shot and returns to Sofia, who is looking for Gerry, who fled after the accident and dealing with his guilt. For his part, Raul will return to high school to try to be forgiven and to win her back. But Sofia is getting closer to Javier and especially the high school students will obviously be after him.
Yet Raul’s hacking skills have come in handy for Sofia and the others to find the identity of the new hacker, who calls himself the Avenger. By wanting to avenge Luis, this new threat reveals other dark secrets and is above all much more dangerous than Raul. Season 2 of Control Z therefore promises many twists and turns, danger and new secrets.
