The story is about Hannah Baker (Katherine Langford), who has left behind cassette tapes explaining 13 reasons why she took her life. Season 1 had 13 episodes and was executive produced by Selena Gomez, who said last week that “maybe” there would be another season of the series.
She also told the Associated Press that she was proud of the project.
“We stayed very true to the book,” Gomez said. “What Jay Asher created was a beautifully tragic, complicated yet suspenseful story and I think that’s what we wanted to do. We wanted to do it justice and, yeah, (the backlash is) going to come no matter what. It’s not an easy subject to talk about, but I’m very fortunate with how it’s doing.”
