'Narcos' Season 2 Release Date, Plot, Spoilers & Update: Netflix To Turn Show Into An Anthology?

"Narcos" season 2 has been confirmed, but fans are still in the shadows as to what can be expected in the upcoming run.

Details remain to be limited online about the show's plot for season 2. While it has been claimed that there will be continuity in Pablo Escobar's life story, many still believe that the new season has a lot more to offer.

Hopefully, writers will be able to stick to the things that worked in season 1 and take them a notch higher in the upcoming run. "There are so many elements to love about Narcos, from its on-site filming in Colombia to the odd decision to tell the story through a gringo's point of view," Fansided reported.

"Perhaps the best thing about it is the true-to-form narrative. Even though we know what happens to Escobar, the story is still engrossing. That is the sign of a tightly constructed story."

It would be inevitable to see Escobar's death in season 2 as fans already saw a great extent of his rise to power in the first season. As many argued, there won't be a lot to show in the upcoming run than the kingpin's fall and demise.

However, many are speculating that that could be a great way for Netlfix to turn the show into an anthology featuring drug lords that assumed Escobar's position after his death.

"If Netflix is clever about it, season 2 could be the perfect gateway into a new story, wrapping up Escobar's tale and transforming Narcos into an anthology series with a new focus every season (or two), like American Crime Story," Movie Pilot reported.

"Not only would that keep Narcos fresh long after Escobar is dead and buried, it would also allow the series to tap into themes so far unexplored, like the impact of the thriving cocaine trade on low-income neighbourhoods of the US' biggest cities, or the struggles of the political elite to stay on top of the war on drugs."
