‘Nemesis’ Renewed for Season 2 at Netflix

Courtney A. Kemp, the guru behind the Power universe, has brought her vision to Netflix with the crime drama, Nemesis. Part high-stakes drama, part thriller, the story of Nemesis was cocreated with Tani Marole and is the first series in a new creative partnership between Kemp and Netflix. The hit series about an obsessed cop on the hunt for an elusive bank robber nabbed the attention of audiences, and now it will have the chance to finish its story, as a second season was just given the go-ahead.

Nemesis follows the story of Lieutenant Isaiah Stiles (Matthew Law), a single-minded LAPD detective whose laser-focused obsession is centered on bringing down the crew of thieves responsible for killing his partner, and heist mastermind Coltrane Wilder (Y’lan Noel), a calculating criminal genius who has fooled the entire city into believing he has gone legit. The series becomes a tense cat-and-mouse game between two men, each willing to sacrifice everything to win.

Here is everything we know so far about Season 2.

What is Nemesis Season 1 about?

The official description from Netflix reads: “Nemesis is the story of two men on different sides of the law, the tale of what happens when an unstoppable force (an expert criminal) meets an immovable object (a brilliant police detective). What starts as a subversion of the heist genre, amped by thrilling life-or-death stakes, family dynamics, and explosive action, becomes an exploration of what drives us, sustains us, and ultimately destroys us.”
