«Splinter Cell: Death Sentence» has already been renewed for a second season, but the showrunner believes that it may not be limited to just that.
Shortly after the start of the animated series «Splinter Cell: Death Sentence» on Netflix, which received 88% from critics and 62% from viewers on Rotten Tomatoes, the company announced that the second season would be released soon. However, in addition to the extension of the main series, writer and producer Derek Kolstad is interested in creating spin-offs that will be dedicated to other characters in the universe.
«When we look at our favorite franchises, it’s always important to go back to the character. We love Indiana Jones, and we go back to him, and the first season was already quite large. I don’t want the story to get too big, as often happens in successful franchises. We must preserve the character of the character. Sam can develop for a long time, but we have also created new characters that are intriguing in themselves. If we move on to the second season and beyond, I would like to see how the universe will develop, exploring different facets of the spy thriller — for example, in the 70s or 60s. But in the end, Sam will always remain part of this story, even if he becomes a more positive shadow of Douglas».
Thus, after the completion of the first season, which smoothly closed the main storylines, the second season will continue the development of Sam and his team, and spin-offs may become an addition to expanding the universe.
Netflix has not yet revealed the details of the second season, and the wording “soon” in this context remains rather vague. For example, in the case of the series on Devil May Cry, which was also renewed for a second season with similar wording, about a year will pass between seasons.
