Hijack just wrapped its first season on Apple TV+, and some viewers wonder if there will be a second season of the thriller series.
The series follows business negotiator Sam Nelson (Idris Elba) as he tries to find a way to save the day during a seven-hour hijacking ordeal over the city of London. SPOILER ALERT. The season ended with a crash landing. The rest of the cast includes Neil Maskell, Eve Myles, Christine Adams, Max Beesley, Archie Panjabi, Ben Miles, and Kate Phillips.
Executive producer Hakan Kousetta said the following about the possibility of the Apple TV+ series returning for a second season in an interview with Variety:
“I hope so but we’ll have to see. I mean, we’ve thought about it, obviously. And that is really challenging. It is something that you’re like, ‘Wow, how would you do that and it not be completely ridiculous?’ We talk about it — but yeah, we’ll have to wait and see. I’m never gonna say no.”
In June, prior to Hijack’s premiere, Elba share his thoughts on the possibility of a Sam Nelson return:
“What would be the acceptable scenario that he comes back? Because we’ve thought about this and obviously Apple have gone, ‘Well, we really love the show.’ And I think, you know, Rotten Tomatoes is at 92% at the moment, which is a good sign, but it’s kind of like — he’s not a cop — what would be the acceptable Sam Nelson return? And if I’m honest, I’m not sure. I’d like that, but I just don’t want to put him on another hijack. I’m open to that character coming back. I think if people were compelled to like the character, then I’m in.”
