The Night Manager has inched closer to an official Season 2 revival, with news that British scribe Matthew Orton is writing the second iteration of the BBC/AMC serial, per Deadline:
I hear that Orton, who has penned a number of feature films for MGM and Fox, is writing new episodes of the BBC and AMC co-production. It comes after The Ink Factory co-founder Simon Cornwell, son of Le Carré author David Cornwell, said earlier this year that the producers were keen to tackle a sequel. “There’s no book and there’s never been a Le Carré story that has been extended beyond the confines of the novel. It would be interesting to try that,” he told an audience at the Royal Television Society.
The news comes on the heels of the Night Manager follow-up series announcement.
