Netflix has just officially announced they have renewed the fantasy drama “Sweet Tooth” for a third and final season. However, in a surprise twist, production on the show’s third season has already been completed in New Zealand.
The news comes just under a week after the Robert Downey Jr.-produced show’s second season premiered last Friday on the service – pulling in more than 48 million hours of viewership during its first four days.
Christian Convery and Nonso Anozie star in the series, which will see Rosalind Chao and Amy Seimetz upgraded to series regulars, whilst “The Expanse” alum Cara Gee and newcomer Ayazhan Dalabayeva are joining as new castmembers for the final season.
Creator Jim Mickle serves as writer, director and showrunner. He said in a statement Wednesday:
“In a lot of ways, it’s exactly the story that I imagined we would tell and in a lot of ways, it takes on its own life… Season three is an Arctic story with exciting new adventures and what we hope will be a satisfying conclusion to this epic tale. Gus is going to see a side of the world and humanity that he didn’t see in season one or two.”
Mickle executive produces alongside Downey Jr., Susan Downey, Linda Moran, Beth Schwartz and Amanda Burrell. The series hails from Warner Bros. Television.
