After AccidentThe creator of Netflix’s debut series addressed the possibility of moving on to Season 2.
Accident portrays a tight-knit community celebrating a small child’s birthday before the wind causes an accident that kills three small children. The adults then blame each other for what happened, which leads to a lot of tension building up when they face their guilt.
All 10 episodes of the new Spanish-language series dropped on Netflix on August 21.

The creator of the accident shares his hopes for the release of season 2
Accident creator Leonardo Padrón took to social media to respond to a fan comment expressing hope for a season 2.
In an Instagram post celebrating the show’s move to Netflix after its debut, one fan shared a comment asking for a second season to be greenlit:
“I need another season… I wanted more of it… 10 chapters didn’t seem like enough… for such a beautiful series”
In response, Padrón responded with a simple “hands up” emoji and shared his hopes for a renewal of his show.
Will The Accident Season 2 ever be released?
Accident is already doing admirably well with critics, with a Tomatometer rating of 93% as of writing on Rotten Tomatoes.
In Mexico, the country where the show was produced, it has ranked as the most-watched Netflix show since August 22. It has also boasted the same ranking in a long list of other countries, which can be seen below:
- Argentina
- Bolivia
- Chile
- Colombia
- Costa Rica
- Dominican Republic
- Ecuador
- Honduras
- Guatemala
- Nicaragua
- Panama
- Paraguay
- Peru
- Salvador
- Uruguay
- Venezuela
It has also steadily climbed the Netflix TV charts in the US, ranking fifth on August 23, fourth on August 24, and even second on August 25.
A series like this has the advantage of such a great international performance that it doesn’t necessarily need to be a hit in the US to be renewed. However, since the broadcast time is less than a week so far, it cannot be said whether this popularity will be enough for a season 2 renewal.
If a second season were to be greenlit, many fans would expect to see Charro back in the spotlight as she adjusts to prison while Emiliano comes out from behind bars to re-enter the world.
Another character who may get more screen time is Lupita, who is still reeling from David’s murder and may be seeking revenge for the death.
While nothing is guaranteed right now, the ingredients seem to be in place Accident continue for at least one season.
