Guillermo Del Toro's Trollhunters Renewed For Second Season

02/09/2017 10:24 am EST

Acclaimed director Guillermo Del Toro made waves in the animation world this year, as his Netflix original series debuted to strong numbers, and even stronger reviews.

Trollhunters instantly became a hit, as it resonated with both children and adults. While the action, comedy, and visuals were more than enough to grab the attention of the kids, the deeper themes and witty dialogue kept even every adult engaged.

People love Trollhunters, and Netflix knows it.

Del Toro has just confirmed that the series has been given the green light for a second 13-episode season 2.

During an interview with EW, Del Toro revealed that he had some good news.

"Well, we got very good news about how many people were watching the series, but we got confirmation that the next [13] episodes are a go. We've been working on a second season for a while now because we knew that if everything went right, we could proceed. We're going to go ahead and now continue, rather than start, because we've been doing it for more than a year. The reality and the beauty of this is that we can continue not only the storyline and the characters, but we have a huge swath of work from Anton that allows us to continue Anton through more than half the season."

Season two of Trollhunters is currently in production, and there isn't an expected release date at this time.
