Is 3 Body Problem S2 Expected?

3 Body Problem

There it is: the biggest sci-fi blockbuster of the 21st century is now on Netflix. It’s not true that 3 Body Problem feels very down-to-earth just because it takes place in the present day. At the end of these books, people are billions of years in the future and in a completely different world. What begins as a physical, earth-based story will grow into something much bigger in the end.

Still, it might be hard to see the bigger picture in the eight episodes of 3 Body Problem. If you have read the books, or even if you have, the last episode of season 1 might make you wonder more than it explains. What’s going to happen in season 2? How many years from now will the show take place? Also, will we ever see those annoying aliens? 

Is 3 Body Problems S2 In The Works?

As of this writing, Netflix has not officially approved a second season of 3 Body Problem. But showrunners David Benioff, D.B. Weiss, and Alexander Woo have said in comments, including one on Collider, that they plan to adapt all three books over the course of up to four seasons. Season 1 and maybe even Season 2 of 3 Body will follow the main stories of the first two books. However, the showrunners say it’s possible that the third book, Death’s End, could be split into two seasons. “The third book is very long. “I believe it’s twice as long as the other two,” Benioff said. “So that could be one season or two.” I believe we would need at least three and possibly four seasons to fully tell the story.

The people in charge of the show also say they’re working on season 2. Woo says, “We’re doing [the writing and planning] now.” There is a very serious plan for a second season, even though there isn’t a release date yet and shooting doesn’t seem to have begun either.
