Philip Barantini, the director of the series “Adolescence,” answered questions about a continuation after its tremendous success.
The Netflix series “Adolescence” is already one of the most-watched on the platform and one of the highest-rated by both the public and critics. Director Philip Barantini answered questions about a possible continuation.
“Adolescence” tells the story of Jaime (Owen Cooper), a 13-year-old boy who was arrested under suspicion of killing a classmate. The series has 4 episodes filmed in a single continuous shot and was very well received.
“Personally, I think it should be something unique because the conversation it generated just impressed me,” said Philip Barantini to the PA agency.
However, the director does not expect “Adolescence” to receive a second season.
“We really wanted the series to spark a conversation among parents. But the fact that it became something global, being just a small British TV show filmed in a small town, is incredible,” he continued.
“I don’t think there should be another season. For me, it’s a record of a specific moment in time, and that’s how I see this story,” he responded.
