Stevie Nicks really wants a Season 2 of Daisy Jones and The Six.
The series, based on Taylor Jenkins Reid’s book of the same name, follows the rise and fall of a fictional 1970s rock band.
In the later episodes, Daisy Jones and The Six dug deep into exploring the complex relationships, creative tensions, and personal struggles that drove the band members apart at the height of their fame.
Sound familiar? It should, as Taylor has confirmed that she drew inspiration from Fleetwood Mac when writing the story.
It’s clear Stevie, a former member of Fleetwood Mac, saw the intentional parallels between the TV adaptation of Daisy Jones and The Six and what infamously went down between her and Lindsey Buckingham, and Christine McVie and John McVie while the four, along with Mick Fleetwood, made Rumours in the late 70s.
In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Stevie admitted that while there were some notable differences, she felt like she was watching her life while watching Daisy Jones and The Six.
“Riley [Keough] doesn’t look like me. She’s much snappier than me. I couldn’t be as snappy as her in Fleetwood Mac. Christine and I couldn’t do that, because we were the peacemakers.
“[Riley’s character Daisy] could be totally sh*tty and a smart ass and totally arrogant, because she wasn’t even in the band, and they weren’t even nice to her. So that was the biggest difference,” Stevie began.
“But as far as her character went, it was very similar to me. And I instantly wanted to call her and meet her, and I did,” she continued.
“I thought Suki [Waterhouse] was a great Christine; in her Englishness and just the way that she dressed. And you know what I was really sad about? That Christine didn’t get to see that, because she would’ve been so tickled by her (for context: Christine passed away in 2022).
“And I thought Billy [played by Sam Claflin] was spectacular. I thought he captured so much of Lindsey that it was creepy. He had the curls and that dark handsomeness that Lindsey had.”
Stevie went on to say in the interview that she’s keen for the series to get a Season 2.
“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. That would make a fantastic second season.
“I talked to Reese [Witherspoon, executive producer of Daisy Jones and The Six] and Riley about it, and they loved the idea, but everybody’s so busy. Riley’s on her way to becoming a big movie star. But maybe one of these days, they’ll do it,” Stevie mused.
Here’s hoping Stevie works her magic and Season 2 of Daisy Jones and The Six comes to fruition.
