The hit Netflix series Adolescence, which has captivated audiences with its gripping storyline, is likely to return for a second season, according to recent reports by Deadline. Brad Pitt’s production company, Plan B, is currently in talks with the creators of the show to discuss the future of the series.
Dede Gardner and Jeremy Kleiner, co-presidents of Plan B, shared insights about their ongoing discussions with the show’s director. They revealed that the team has been brainstorming ideas to ensure the next season will be as mind-blowing as the first, aiming to expand on the show’s narrative without becoming repetitive. As Gardner put it, they hope to “widen the aperture” of the story while remaining true to its original spirit.
Kleiner, meanwhile, expressed his desire for the co-creators, Jack Thorne and Stephen Graham, to be on board for the next chapter of Adolescence. This collaborative approach highlights the show’s potential for a compelling continuation.
Adolescence, which features Owen Cooper as a teenage boy accused of murdering a female classmate, has sparked conversations about gender-based abuse, thanks to its intense legal drama and character exploration. With just four episodes, it quickly became a phenomenon, ranking fourth on Netflix in the U.K.
In a recent interview, the producers also discussed the series’ unique cinematographic style, particularly its use of one-take episodes. They emphasized that this technique is integral to the show’s subject matter, providing a more immersive and emotional experience for viewers.
With such strong support and anticipation, Adolescence‘s future on Netflix looks promising, and fans are eager to see where the story goes next.
