The police is the one body we trust and bestow all our faith in. Known as Policia in Spanish and Polizei in German, it is not just a word but a responsibility to hold all other state machinery together. When Governments fail, the police comes in. When there is a crisis, a hostage situation, murder, or a simple brawl between two people, the first thing they think of is to call the police and see what they have to say.
But what if an officer’s body is found charred lying somewhere? Wouldn’t one lose their faith in the system and feel terrorized? Who can take such a heinous step, and why? While corruption and the apocalypse of hypocrisy taking shape in the world, vengeance stories about police murders just seem like a reality, but what unfolds is a band of chaos and sadness all around. Will all the lies open?
After shows like Money Heist, the Spanish industry is making some great shows and movies in collaboration with Netflix, which makes viewers ask for more. If you have figured out that we are talking about the recent release of Burning Body, you got it right. With more people hopping onto their devices to binge-watch this one-of-a-kind show, fans are wondering if Burning Body or El Cuerpo En Ilamas will be back a new season. Let’s find out. Here is all we know about Burning Body Season 2 and whether it is happening.
Will there be Burning Body Season 2?
The show is termed as a limited series, which is known for being done with one season, and hence, all loose ends are tied by the end of the season to give the show the required conclusion. But there are chances they can change the status and convert it into a full-fledged show, but this has never happened with Netflix so far. So, fingers crossed, but we might not have a Burning Body Season 2 at all.
As of now, the show has just been released on September 8, 2023, and it is a limited series. But there can be spin-offs like Money Heist, which is coming out with a show exclusively on their character Berlin. It can be a possibility here as well, based on the fame the show gains.
Any hopes of renewal of Burning Body Season 2:
Yes and No. Yes, because a new spin-off can be created, and no, because it is a limited series designed for those people who do not like indulging in waiting for multiple seasons.
