As Day Shift has only just been released, it's perhaps unsurprising that Netflix is yet to announce whether a sequel is in the works. Usually, the streaming giant assesses views and fan response a little while after a show or movie has been released to determine its future.

"We talked last night about it and we got some great ideas," he told Screen Rant. "It's not always normal for Netflix to do part twos, they don't always do it, but we feel like with this one, we got a great chance on how everybody's responding to it already. So I think we'll definitely try to make it happen and I think if they do, it'll be even better."
