The anticipation builds with each mention of the sequel, intertwining possibilities for engagement with both new viewers and die-hard fans from the original literature. Plus, with the streaming giant's knack for releasing binge-worthy content, this sequel could quickly become the talk of the town in New Zealand and beyond.
