Fans of the gripping Mexican thriller The Accident (also known as Accidente on Netflix) have been buzzing since season 2 dropped. The show, created by Leonardo Padrón, follows the devastating aftermath of a children’s birthday party gone horribly wrong when a bouncy castle flies away in strong winds, claiming young lives and shattering families. Season 1 premiered in August 2024 and quickly became a global hit, topping Netflix’s non-English charts with over 10 million views in its first week.
Season 2 arrived on December 10, 2025, picking up one year later. This shorter season – just six episodes compared to season 1’s ten – dives deeper into themes of revenge, guilt, forgiveness, and rebuilding. Returning stars like Ana Claudia Talancón as Daniela, Sebastián Martínez as Emiliano, Alberto Guerra as the ruthless Charro, and Eréndira Ibarra as Lupita deliver intense performances amid escalating drama, betrayals, and shocking twists.
Current Status of The Accident Season 3
As of December 13, 2025 – just days after season 2’s release – Netflix has not announced a renewal or cancellation for season 3. No official word has come from the streaming giant or the production team at Mar Abierto Productions.
This comes as no surprise. Netflix typically waits several weeks or even months to evaluate a new season’s performance. Key factors include viewership numbers, completion rates (how many viewers finish the season), global engagement, and overall cost versus popularity. Season 1’s massive success led to a quick renewal in early 2025, but season 2 only just launched.
