While the streamer didn’t explicitly label these episodes as “Season 2,” it was mentioned that further details about the number of seasons and episodes will be announced later. A statement from the series’ co-creators David Benioff, D.B. Weiss, and Alexander Woo, who are all returning for the new installment, suggests that the series is approaching its climax. “We’re thrilled that we get to tell this story through to its epic conclusion. Ever since we read the last page of Cixin Liu’s magnificent trilogy, we hoped we’d be able to bring the audience to the end of the universe with us,” they commented. “Here we go!”
Peter Friedlander, Netflix’s Vice President of scripted series for the U.S. and Canada, added, “The extraordinary ‘3 Body Problem,’ crafted by the skilled hands of Benioff, Weiss, and Woo, will ascend to unprecedented heights as they navigate the remaining thrilling journey through ‘Death’s End.’ Their exceptional storytelling abilities are complemented by their wonderful partnership. Like the fans, we are eager to see what they have planned.”
