The anticipation for the second season of "Narcos" is already high as Netflix has already wrapped up production. While the show is yet to be launched on Netflix, talks about the possibility of a third season are already making rounds.
Season 2 Begins Aug. 28
The production team of Netflix's original series "Narcos" wrapped up filming last week and according to the show's composer, Pedro Bromfman, the post-production might be finished by June 20 or 25, iDigitalTimes reported. With that, they are targeting for an August 2016 release date. It can be remembered that Netflix released Season 1 on Aug. 28 last year. Taking clue from that, it is possible that the "Narcos" Season 2 will hit the streaming service come Aug. 26, the last Friday of that month. Netflix is yet to make an announcement on the official schedule.
What's In Store For Season 3
Season 2 is going to feature the death of the cocaine kingpin Pablo Escobar, one of the main characters of this series, Parent Herald has learned. Given that, many would assume that it will also be the end of the series. But according to Bromfman, there is still much stories to tell and it doesn't end with the fall of Escobar and the Medellin cartel. Bromfman hints that the story could continue to the rise of the Cali cartel and then Mexico.
Bromfman told iDigitalTimes that new characters will be introduced in Season 2 and it will also provide more understanding on how the cartels work. "It just shifts places, but it keeps moving. As long as there's people buying drugs, there'll be bad guys trying to provide them and killing people and doing things. As long as they are illegal, and as long there are people interested in them, apparently there's no stopping it. Now it's in Mexico, but it did go around. It did go around for a long time," he said.
