'13 Reasons Why' Confirms Season 2 With First Teaser
Amid critical praise and affecting subject material, fans of Netflix’s book-adapted 13 Reasons Why have been uncertain of a potential second season. The 2007 Jay Asher novel has no sequel, nor does the central conceit of a teenage girl’s suicide lend itself to expansion, but 13 Reasons Why Season 2 is now confirmed by a first teaser.

Spotlight director Tom McCarthy has something of a spotty record. While balancing a robust career as an actor, McCarthy got started directing such fine dramas as The Station Agent and The Visitor, and earned his first Oscar nomination for co-writing the script for Up. His 2011 feature Win Win was solid, and Spotlight currently has six Academy Award nominations pending (including a Best Director citation for McCarthy himself), and yet there remains a stain on his filmography. McCarthy also helmed 2015’s The Cobbler, a ridiculous, risible Adam Sandler vehicle that felt like a deranged parody of a formulaic studio comedy. If the director was capable of putting his name on that radioactive pile of waste, then nothing’s beyond his reach, awards-season prestige be damned.
