Will There Be a ‘Monsieur Spade’ Season 2? Tom Fontana Gives Update
Monsieur Spade is one of a collection of AMC shows now available to stream on Netflix as part of a one-year licensing deal between the network and the streamer — a deal that’s become somewhat of a tradition ever since Breaking Bad surged in popularity once it became available on Netflix.
The Clive Owen-led noir drama offers a new story in the infamous onscreen life of Sam Spade, the detective made famous in Dashiell Hammett’s books and in Humphrey Bogart‘s performance in The Maltese Falcon. It’s a gorgeously rendered gumshoe mystery that shows a new side of the character.
Set in the south of France in 1963, Spade is a man in relatively peaceful retirement who’s living quietly after the death of his wife, whom he met in France while tasked with seeing to the safe passage of a young girl named Teresa (the elder version played by Cara Bossom). Years later, his wife is dead but Spade sticks around and keeps an eye on Teresa, who’s living at a local convent. The rumored return of an old adversary, and the gruesome murder of the nuns, causes a disturbance in the town and makes the 60-year-old detective come out of retirement — fedora and trench coat and all.
Monsieur Spade aired its six episodes from January to February, 2024 on AMC, AMC+, and Acorn TV. It was billed as a limited series, but Owen has been vocal about his and the creative team’s interest in making more seasons (that team includes The Queen’s Gambit creator Scott Frank, Homicide: Life on the Street executive producer Tom Fontana, and Oscar-winning director Barry Levinson).
“We’ve talked about the possibility of doing more,” Owen told TV Insider ahead of the series premiere. “We’ve come up with some very cool ideas about where to take it, but we’ll see how this goes and then Scott and I will talk. But yeah, there are some exciting things being talked about.”
It’s been crickets on the show’s future ever since the finale, however. Will there be a Monsieur Spade Season 2? Fontana gave an update in a new interview with TV Insider about Homicide: Life on the Street, which made its long-awaited streaming debut on August 19 on Peacock.
“That’s a good question. You’d have to ask AMC’s Dan McDermott,” he said when asked if it could return. “We are having conversations but they’re moving at a glacial pace.”
The desire is there from the star and creators. Perhaps Netflix will give the series the boost it needs to get more episodes. Do you want a Monsieur Spade Season 2? Let us know in the comments below.

Definitely a second season. The first season was amazing.

G
As a lifelong Dashiell Hammett fan I was skeptical, but quickly found myself feeling like Hammett himself had a hand in its creation. It left me wanting more. I would love to see a second season.
34

G
I wholeheartedly agree a 2nd season, even more, would be great !
32

Yes, please, loved. The series and Clive Owens.

It was a good first season that kind of lost its way as it went along, but I'd watch a second just for Clive Owen's portrayal.

I would love to see a season 2 of Monsieur Spade. Clive Owen, the cast and story is compelling and it's location in France keeps me wanting more. My whole family enjoys watching it together. PLEASE give us another season !

O
YES ❗ Absolutely a second season for this truly original, very well written, beautifully acted, superbly shot slightly off key series. Monsieur Owen makes a TERRIFIC Monsieur Spade

P
Yes! Please, more seasons. It’s a terrific show and Owens is perfect as Spade.

P
Yes…a second season would be a wonderful idea…clever dialog, scenic back drops, and just the right mix of humor and suspence! The characters had “character” and the storyline stayed on track. More please

now thats geat storytelling,,,yes, another season,,,,full stop

It cannot be possible that such a well written, acted, filmed, directed production is allowed to die after one season. I agree the final scene with all of the characters in one room was weaker than the 99% preceeding it, too much of the Poirot about it and not enough clarity about the boys importance. Don't let a potentially great series fall so easily, fight to make another season with any rough edges polished and you'll have the makings of a great hit and future series. Reminds me of Rowan Atkinson in Maigret, which had the makings of greatness, but was allowed to die, loosing all of the actors, crew etc, who had gelled to make a great production, to new contracts, making further episodes impossible.

O
Yes, yes, yes... 'Monsieur Spade' it the most sophisticated story-telling, acting and cinemaphotography to reach us~ adults with attention spans longer than a nano second!

We just watched it on Netflix and I loved it. My wife was more on the fence, but still enjoyed it. I would be very happy with another season or two.

G
I will anxiously await a second season, please. It was a good story line that kept us engaged. I am sure a second and third season will be even more enticing. The human interest of the characters and their relationships provided a charming addition. Please keep the same characters in France. Charming, intriguing, and very enjoyable.

Clive Owen along with production staff have found incredible synergy in the delivery of each episode of this Sam Spade spinoff.
I could watch Clive Owen paint a barn wall and be entertained. Extremely gifted cast, beautifully filmed and edited.
I don't understand the delay to another season.

O
Yes please. This series was so well done. The acting was terrific and the storyline was riveting. There just seems so much more to tell!

O
As a die hard Bogart fan, I was skeptical. I was pleasantly surprised at Clive Owen’s superb portrayal of Sam Spade. Yes please to a second season of Monsieur Spade.

O
Why isn't there a Season 2 already? Don't lose this great cast. The suits that have the power to make these decisions are maddening.

Oui Oui Oui!
-
G
I really enjoyed this show. I’m hoping there will be a season 2+ I hate when shows leave cliffhangers and then show’s cancelled Netflix is notorious for this. I’m starting to think that the writers do this as leverage for streaming platforms to renew. In any event, it’s frustrating to get involved in a series and bam the rugs pulled out from under I’m sure it’s more disappointing to all the actors etc involved in making show
-
B
More please!!!
-
O
more something actualy woth watching

Clive Owen had me when he was getting out of the pool. My, my.
Yes and Yes. A second, third, fourth ….shall I go on season?
-
C
Sure, let's have more of this above-average series with superb French exteriors. Clive needs to work on his delivery, though; seems way too studied. All the others are excellent, especially Bossom and Bourgoin.

-
B
A lot was left up in the air. What happens with Teresa? Who is the woman, who plays Alfre Woodard? It was very unclear how she had the authority to take the boy, and where was she taking him? It was not a satisfying story for me.
-
P
We really really liked this series. Again, please

Excellent. Definitely more seasons.

Loved it, the setting, brilliant characters, have long been a fan of Clive Owen and thought his portrayal perfectly understated, so good. Please give us season 2
-

5 Star show. Not many of those left. It has to have at least a few more seasons and double the episodes per season to 12.
-
O
I rarely watch television but my husband persuaded me to sit down for the first episode. I was hooked! Give me more!!!
-
P
This is film-noir at its best! Clive Owen as Sam Spade…amazing! Maybe a Season 2 involving Nazi’s…? Should we get a drink?

Yes yes season 2... Loved it
-
O
Definitely!
-
O
Yes, I want more Spade
-
C
More episodes!!!!
-
B
With the talent and creative writing and brilliant directing in Monsieur Spade, it would be a travesty not to produce more seasons. Not just a second season, but multiple seasons. Please, please please pull out all the stops and make it happen!
-
O
Definitely worth multiple seasons.
-
G
Yep, I'd watch another season. Especially if he reluctantly forced to work another case with his daughter. Their love/hate never acknowledged biological worked well on screen for me. Especially the last words of endearment, "Call me Sam".
-
M
Yes! Season 2! Love Clive Owen & intriguing story!
-
C
A show such as this, you bet. Scenery, Clive, noir!!! Come on AMC, green light this project.

I generally like this series (I am at ep. 5), and always like the dashing Clive Owen, but I confess there was barely a minute when I knew what the hell was going on. So many characters. So many plotlines. I appreciate complexity but I was usually in the dark.
