‘The Girlfriend’ Premieres on Prime Video With Season 2 Decision Pending

Producers say they are ready to return if Prime Video orders more, signaling room to continue beyond the novel.

Overview

  • All six episodes of the Robin Wright–led psychological thriller debuted globally on Prime Video on September 10.
  • Early audience momentum is strong, with outlets reporting rapid binge‑watching and a top‑tier placement on the service within days.
  • Prime Video has not announced a renewal, and any decision is expected to hinge on viewing metrics and engagement over the coming weeks.
  • Producer Jonathan Cavendish says the team would like to make a second season if commissioned, potentially exploring alternate perspectives or structure.
  • The adaptation departs from Michelle Frances’ novel, and Wright says the creative team considered multiple possible endings to heighten ambiguity.
