‘Hunting Wives‘ Creator Hints at Potentialโฃ Season Two, Expanding Roles for Key Characters
Alba, Texas – Despite no official renewal announcement, the creator of Netflix’s hit thriller The Hunting Wives is openly discussing potential storylines and character expansions shouldโ a โsecondโ season be โgreenlit. In a recentโ interview, showrunner and executive producer โRebecca Cutter โฃrevealed plans to delve deeper into the world established in the first eightโ episodes, with a particular focus on fan-favorite Deputy Wanda Salazar and the โฃorigins of central antagonists Margo and kyle.
The first season culminated in a dramatic finale where Sophie โthrew โขaway “everything,” a decision Cutter described as “astounding but also heartbreaking” โขin itsโค depiction ofโฃ trauma and recovery.While acknowledging the storyline’s potential for soapiness – specifically sophie’s relapseโค and subsequent drunk driving – Cutter defended the narrative choice, stating, “This โisโค the story. You enjoyed theโ whole thing, โฃjust go with โit!” Sheโค also playfully addressed viewer concerns about the Tesla’s camera, a detail some found implausible.
Cutter expressed enthusiasm โforโ further developing Deputy Wanda Salazar, played by Karen Rodriguez, calling her “a very captivating and โคvery fresh character.” She also indicated that future storylines would likely explore the undercurrents of Alba, Texas,โ the hometown of Margo and her โbrother Kyle, played by โขMichael Aaron Milligan. The political ambitionsโค of Jed, a candidate forโ governor, โalso present opportunitiesโ to โคintroduce new characters and conflicts.A potential realityโข show following the lives of Callieโ and John, portrayed by Jaime Ray โขNewman and Branton Box, respectively, was โalso โฃfloated as a โpossibility.
When pressed aboutโ the possibility of a second season, Cutter cautiously stated, “There is no season two, โคyet,” but readily engaged in hypothetical discussions. She emphasized โthe โขimportance of maintaining the establishedโข tone of the show, hoping to avoid any creative interference โฃfrom Netflix. “from your lips to God’s ears!” she responded when asked aboutโ receiving no notes from โฃthe streaming platform. The Hunting Wives is โcurrently streaming all eight episodes on Netflix.
