Fool Me Once has raced to second place on Netflix’s top 10 chart, which begs the question: will there be a Season 2? Here’s what we know so far.
When you woke up feeling a little tender on New Year’s Day, your first instinct might have been to order some food in and crack on a bit ofNetflix. Which is why it was a master stroke to choose this day to release Fool Me Once, a trashy yet binge-able whodunit series based onHarlan Coben’s book of the same name.
The synopsis is as follows: “Fool Me Once follows Maya Stern who is trying to come to terms with the brutal murder of her husband, Joe. But when Maya installs a nanny-cam to keep an eye on her young daughter, she is shocked to see a man she recognises in her house. Her husband, who she thought was dead…”
With asolid British castand plenty of twisty thrills, the show has proven to be a hit for Netflix. So, will there be a second outing?
Will there be a Fool Me Once Season 2?
Despite being a success, it’s highly unlikely that Fool Me Once will get a Season 2. It is a limited series, meaning the show has a predetermined number of episodes telling a complete story arc. What’s more, Coben’s Netflix contract means another of his novels will most likely be next in line.
No doubt we’ll be hearing more about Coben’s next Netflix adaptation in the coming months. Just don’t expect it to be Fool Me Once Season 2, which is almost definitely not on the cards.
Fool Me Once is available to stream on Netflix now, and you can read more about the series below:
