Will there be a second season of The Alienist? Recently, the cast spoke with The Hollywood Reporter about the future of the TNT TV show.
Based on the Caleb Carr novel, the historical drama centers on Laszlo Kreizler (Daniel Brühl), an alienist, i.e. a criminal psychologist, who helps investigate a serial killer preying on boy prostitutes. The cast also includes :uke Evans, Dakota Fanning, Brian Geraghty, Douglas Smith, and Matthew Shear.
Season one of The Alienist already wrapped, but will TNT renew the series for season two? Luke Evans says the cast would happily return:
We all got on very well, and I think it was a very rewarding experience for all of us as actors. We’re very proud of what we’ve created. It was a limited series, and we’ve done the whole book, but if asked to go back, I think we’d all quite happily say yes.”
What do you think? Have you seen The Alienist? Would you watch another season?
I love this show and the cast. The writing was really good. Why would you cancel it? Please bring this show back. Renew The Alienist!
Damn!! Another one of my favorite show’s going by the wayside!! What is the matter with you all? First, Counterpart; Second, Now this? Put it on PBS! BBC! Somewhere. Was a great series. Actors were superb!
I really liked the show & would like to see a season 2
I really enjoyed this show!
Please bring it back…it was the one of only few series I looked forward to watching every week….
I loved the show and wanted to know what happened next. They may have been leading to Jack the Ripper, who was thought to be an American visiting Britain, when he killed the women. He’s reputed to have also killed young boys and supposedly continued killing in the USA. Not sure if it was the same years in both countries.
I watched this series from start to finish! Rather gruesome but totally engrossing, excellent acting and interesting characters! I would definitely watch again!
The Alienist was a gripping series with an excellent cast and storyline. I enjoyed every episode and I hope TNT brings the entire cast and crew back for new seasons with new stories because they were so entertaining and enjoyable.
I would love this show to return. Not a lot of interesting shows out there go hold adult attention.
Totally agree!
I absolutely love this show, the sets, the plots, the actors, the enigmas, so believable and interesting. It keeps you guessing and you feel like you are a part of it because it is very entertaining. Please have another season!
I have watched Alienist with great interest. The plot and acting are excellent. I hope it will continue for several years!
Loved this show! Hope it continues!
I found this program to be fascinating. Great cast, writing, settings. I never missed an episode. I think Ken Mitchell says it all and says it well. Nothing I can add except I’d like to see it brought back. It’s as good or better than any cable program out there.
I watched the entire series of “The Alienist” and truly enjoyed the acting, the story being put together in great detail, and the background filming! The background filming looked so real, that you felt that you were almost transported back in time to the late 1890’s. Also, Caleb Carr, author of “The Alienist” , wrote “The Angel of Darkness” which is a sequel which took place one year after our three heroes, Dr. Kreisler, John Moore, and Sara Howard, had solved the identity of the serial killer, John Beecham. Therefore, “The Angel of Darkness” gives a whole new perspective for… Read more »
I watched the 1st episode and was hooked, thoroughly enjoyed everything about this show! The cast, the filming, the storyline, the suspense and love period pieces of this time-frame. I’ve told everyone about the show please bring it back! I don’t know why you would cancel.
TNT would be absolutely ridiculous to not do a sequel to The Alientist. This program showed a lot of history as to how the police work today; such as fingerprinting, along with just too many things to list, that was shown in the series. The series was definitely rough to watch at times due to the content but it was absolutely brilliant at the same time. The main characters were extremely intelligent and actually made you look at yourself, your own past. Maybe if someone was abused when they were a child, This program proved how all these characters were… Read more »
