Netflix Renews Crime Thriller Nemesis for Season 2

Strong early viewing and social buzz persuaded Netflix to greenlight a larger second season that creators say will remain rooted in Los Angeles.

Overview

  • Netflix officially announced the renewal on Tuesday after the series’ May debut drew sustained global attention.
  • Early metrics helped drive the decision, with reports of about 7.1 million global views in the first days and several weeks in Netflix’s global Top 10.
  • Creators Courtney A. Kemp and Tani Marole said Season 2 will answer unresolved questions from Season 1 and be “bigger and better,” and Kemp thanked fans for their social-media support.
  • The show is expected to keep production in Los Angeles, a move that creators and local reporting say would preserve hundreds of local crew jobs and sustain regional economic activity.
  • Season 1 closed on an unresolved cliffhanger that sets up new storylines, core cast members are expected to return, and one creator’s recent overall deal elsewhere is a development to watch for its potential production effects.
