Noughts + Crosses producer discusses season 3 hopes
Malorie Blackman's powerful story spans across six novels.
Noughts + Crosses' executive producer has hinted that the series could continue beyond its second season.
Season 2 is billed as the "epic conclusion" to the whirlwind romance between politician's daughter Sephy (Masali Baduza) and disadvantaged nought Callum (Jack Rowan).
But while the latest episodes complete BBC One's adaptation of Malorie Blackman's novel of the same name, there are several sequels which fans are hoping could also make the leap into live-action.
Nothing has been confirmed just yet, but at a press event marking the launch of the new season, executive producer James Gandhi told RadioTimes.com and others that there could very well be more stories to come in this world.

"It's not necessarily the end of the television show," said executive producer James Gandhi. "This is the climax of Callum and Sephy's love story... but there is more in the Noughts + Crosses world, this is just the end of Callum and Sephy’s love story."

The second season took some time to move forward due to the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic, which was particularly problematic for Noughts + Crosses as the show is filmed in South Africa.
The country was still on the UK's "red list" at the time filming was due to begin, but a potential third season could move forward quicker with travel restrictions currently dropped.
Gandhi added: "You just never know. It's an amazing world that we love spending lots of time in and you never know what's going to happen in the future on the show. You have to see where this series takes us first."
Noughts + Crosses season 2 airs Tuesdays at 10:40pm on BBC One and is streaming in full now on BBC iPlayer. Check out more of our Drama coverage or visit our TV Guide to see what’s on tonight.
