Is there going to be a third season of Criminal Record?
The Season 2 finale of the hit Apple TV show, which stars Peter Capaldi and Cush Jumbo, just arrived on Wednesday (June 10).
Here’s the official synopsis for the series:
From BAFTA Award nominee Paul Rutman, Criminal Record is a powerful, character-driven drama set in the heart of contemporary London, exploring the impossibility of policing when the truth is up for grabs.
In season two, when a young man is stabbed to death at a political rally, rival police officers June Lenker and Daniel Hegarty are forced into an uneasy alliance. But what starts as a hunt for a murderer escalates into an undercover operation to foil a far-right bomb plot in the heart of London.
Season two reunites Capaldi as Detective Chief Inspector Daniel Hegarty and Jumbo as Detective Sergeant June Lenker. Dustin Demri-Burns, Luca Pasqualino, Luther Ford, Lyndsey Marshal and Peter Sullivan join the cast in addition to the returning ensemble that includes Shaun Dooley, Stephen Campbell Moore and Charlie Creed-Miles.
The show currently has a 90% Fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, and a 58% audience score. It’s currently the 8th most popular TV show on the Most Popular Now chart.
Will it be getting a third season?
Criminal Record has not been renewed for Season 3 yet
Executive producer Elaine Collins was asked directly by TV Insider about whether there’s a third season coming.
“Well, I guess that’s up to Apple. I mean, it is just up to Apple. It’s not up to me. But we definitely have stories in mind for it. We certainly have something in mind for a third season should they want to make another one,” she said.
“I’m not absolutely sure yet because we’re sort of pushing it around the board a little bit, but I think it has to move on. I think Hegarty is Hegarty and June is June. So they’re never going to be best friends, but by the same token, you just can’t have them sort of repeating the same, ‘Oh, I don’t trust him,’ all this sort of stuff. I think it will move on for sure,” she teased of what could happen in a potential third season with June and Hegarty’s dynamic.
“I think I’d like to explore a little bit more of Hegarty’s personal life in another season and see what June is like post-Leo. What does that look like?”
“They can’t be forever bumping into each other or accidentally ending up on the same thing. That would just be silly. I think they would move forward together more, but we’d be throwing some tacks onto the road at the same time,” she added.
“We would love it, but it’s not up to us!” Cush Jumbo recently explained to Radio Times when asked about a potential third season.
Stay tuned to see if it gets renewed.
