Although she wasn’t completely opposed to the idea of turning this series into an anthology, presently, she is excited to try new stories. The series portrays the brutal reality of a young woman who was seeking justice for been assaulted sexually.
Overview
This show portrays Marie’s story, which received a deserving and decent conclusion by the end of the 8th episode. The story was brilliantly written and expertly narrated. It deserves to be a stand-alone series.
Although Marie’s story has come to its end, there is certainly the possibility of Wever and Collette teaming up once again for other cases. Grant needs to decide to take up another story and launch it in a new season. Until then, the future of Unbelievable Season 2 still continues to be skeptical for the upcoming days.
