Could Trouble get a sequel on Netflix?

Given the success of Nordic productions on Netflix, such as Snabba Cash and The Playlist, and the platform’s growing interest in Swedish content, there is a possibility that “Trouble” could return with a new installment in the future.

However, no continuation or sequel has been confirmed yet. Before deciding on a second part, the streaming giant will need to assess how the title performs in terms of global viewership and whether it is worth pursuing further.
