Speaking to Variety, the creators of Adolescence (Graham and Hannah Walters) spoke about a second season.

Graham said, "Possibly, let's see how the figures are. But yeah, there's the possibility of developing another story."

Walters clarified that a prequel isn't in the works.

She added, "But there's so much mileage in the one-shot and so much mileage in investing into human nature again and looking at something else. But yeah, everything's looking good ... everyone's happy, shall we say?"
