Hostage season 2: Is it renewed, canceled at Netflix?

Following the big premiere today on Netflix, is there any chance that you are going to be seeing a Hostage season 2 down the line?

Well, first and foremost, we should note that the British political thriller is not one that was necessarily established to go on a long time. The first season had a defined beginning, middle, and end and was promoted as a limited series from the start.

Now if you want a few more details now all about the show (if you have not heard about it already), just take a look at the official synopsis:

When the British Prime Minister’s husband is kidnapped and the visiting French President is blackmailed, the two political leaders both face unimaginable choices. Forced into a fierce rivalry where their political futures, and lives, might hang in the balance, can they work together to uncover the plot that threatens them both?

Ultimately at this point, we are aware of the fact that limited series can turn into something more. There is a chance that a second season could happen 1) if the viewership is really good and 2) if the creative team comes up with another idea. However, Netflix is the sort of service that has no real shortage of program.

If there one thing that we can say with a certain measure of confidence, it is this: If there does end up being a season 2 of Hostage, Netflix will not announce it anytime soon. Perhaps more so than any other company out there, they have the luxury of patience on their side and there is no real reason for them to rush anything along. Because of that, they rather simply spend months taking stock of what the viewership is for the whole first season.
