According to Netflix’s spokesperson, the show has been cancelled due to difficulties encountered shooting the second season in a pandemic.

 

We’ve made the difficult decision not to move forward with season 2 of ’Queen Sono’. The company thanked the Diprente team for their work on the show and fans of the show.

“We are incredibly proud of the Diprente team for sharing their audacious vision and bringing it to life with Netflix.

“A huge thank you to our fans across the world for the love shared for our first African Original series.

“Netflix is also grateful to the amazing efforts shown by the cast and crew for their stellar efforts in creating this show for our members around the world.” the statement read.

Reacting to the development, ‘Queen Sono’ director and screenwriter Kagiso Lediga said: “We wrote a beautiful story that spanned the continent but unfortunately could not be executed in these current trying times.

 

Queen Sono debuted on Netflix on February 28th, 2020, to much critical acclaim.

 

The first season was filmed in several locations including  South Africa, Lagos, Nigeria, Kenya, and Tanzania. The season two would have brought back the titular character played by Pearl Thusi as she goes on more high-risk adventures as a detective.
