Daisy Jones & The Six has been a massive success, both as a novel for Taylor Jenkins-Reid and as Prime Video’s live-action series adaptation as well. The series quickly became a fan-favorite when it debuted earlier this year and while the series covered the story told in the novel, fans have been hopeful for more in the tale of the fictional rock band. Now, series producers Scott Neustadter and Lauren Neustadter are addressing the future of the series — including hopes for a real-life concert and more episodes in the future.
Speaking with Variety, the Neustadters explained that any plans for a real-life Daisy Jones & The Six concert were scrapped due to the SAG-AFTRA strike, but they’re hopeful that it can still happen eventually — just as they haven’t closed the door for the possibility of there being more to the story despite the series being billed as a limited series.

“We’re not giving up,” Lauren said. “I believe they will perform. The question is when.”
They also discussed the potential for another season.
“If any time Amazon came to us and said, ‘what would it be?’ we would put our little thinking caps on about it,” Lauren said.
“It’s super fun to sit and talk to Taylor for hours about where we think we could take this next,” Scott said. “It was a calculated move to move [the flash forwards] to their 40s. There’s a lot of life left to live, so there could be a future.”
