There's already buzz for a second season.

Yaitanes couldn't contain his admiration for Gyllenhaal. “When you bring Jake into the collaboration tent, He is your greatest ally“He said, ‘He’s going to help you achieve what you’re trying to achieve as a director.

“He really doesn’t know any other way to work,” he added. “So it was a really collaborative, inspiring, inspiring process. I left work every day excited and went to work every day, like pinching myself.” Yaitanes explained:
He personally chose the cast with us or read the script and auditioned with whoever he was going to work with. He felt that if he had partners, they would chase magic with him too.
