As for the future of Castlevania, things are looking real good for the original series. Not only did the show’s recent season wow audiences, but Netflix has already ordered a third season from showrunner Adi Shankar. Taking to Twitter, the producer thanked fans for supporting the series, and it was there Shankar teased his big goals for season three.
“You saw what we can do with Season 2, you’ve called us the greatest video game adaptation of all time. Mark my words โ- With Season 3 we’re going after that EMMY,” the producer promised.
“We have artists from all over the world who love working on this show. Who work around the clock to fuse their passion into each and every frame,” he continued before adding: “They do this because they u know that video games aren’t just for kids. Cartoons aren’t just for children. It’s an art form of immense sophistication. We are here to stake that claim.”
