Netflix had neither renewed nor canceled the teen thriller as of November 14, while its creators expressed interest in continuing the story.
Quinn Shephard, creator of Netflix’s The Body, and co-showrunner Gina Gammell are developing ideas for a possible second season, but the series’ future remains undecided. As of November 14, Netflix had announced neither a renewal nor a cancellation.
In an interview published November 12 by What’s on Netflix, Shephard said both creators had ideas they would like to pursue if another season is ordered. Gammell separately told Swooon that the finale was intended to set up a potential continuation, while Shephard told Elite Daily on November 13 that she wanted to explore Grace’s story after her awakening.
Cast members have also expressed interest in returning. Sara Boustany, who portrays Elise, told Swooon that the actors pitch ideas to the creators. Kristina Bogic, who plays Anya, said they were encouraged to offer suggestions about their characters. No cast members have been confirmed for another season.
The eight-episode thriller debuted November 11 and follows Catholic school girls after a dance-team initiation goes wrong. Forbes reported that it ranked No. 2 among television shows on Netflix in the U.S. as of November 14. No second-season premiere date or production schedule has been announced.
