High Hopes
The Sinner Season 2 hasn't been confirmed yet. Although the novel that the Netflix series is based on is a close-ended one, showrunner Derek Simonds and Biel are open to the possibility of a second season.
"There's certainly a lot of interest and excitement about a Season 2. I think USA's [network] has been very happy with the show," Simonds told Indiewire. He continued, "The Sinner is a standalone story, so for the series to return, the show would have to come up with a brand new story from scratch."
Biel, who is also behind the scenes of the series has addresses Season 2 rumors. She said that they are just waiting for the decision if they can return.
The Sinner was nominated for two awards at the Golden Globes, including Best Performance by an Actress in a Limited Series or a Motion Picture Made for Television and Best television Limited Series or Motion Picture Made for Television.
