Netflix series First Kill, which aired in the second week of June, does not seem to have reached the necessary numbers to earn the right to a second season. Because the streaming giant canceled First Kill without filming a second season.
A source close to Netflix told Deadline that “most Netflix hits are meant to have lasting power. But we found that First Kill doesn’t have that power.”
This cancellation decision is actually surprising. Because it is known that the first few weeks of the series reached quite good viewing figures. First Kill had 30.3 million hours watched in its first three days and 48.8 million hours in its first full week. However, this quick start did not lead to continued viewership, and the popularity of the series was not enough for Netflix to continue the series.
What is the plot of Firt Kill?
Adapted from the author VE Schwab’s short story of the same name, First Kill can be considered a reinterpretation of William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The series follows Juliette Fairmont, a vampire from a long standing vampire dynasty in Georgia.
Juliette, who has spent her life on blood pills until now, discovers that the pills have lost their effect as her 16th birthday approaches and must face the fact that it is time to commit her first murder. Things get even more complicated when a new girl arrives in town, Calliope Burns, whom Juliette quickly falls in love with. The problem is, Calliope’s family background is just as complex as Juliette’s. She is a monster hunter who was raised by a monster hunter family.
