Local actress Pearl Thusi thanked her fans for the ongoing support for "Queen Sono", the first African produced Netflix original series.
While reviews for "Queen Sono" have been a mixed bag, it seems that there is still a possibility for a second season.
Taking to her Twitter page recently, Thusi thanked her fans for streaming the show and said that "Queen Sono" is "still doing very well" and that she'll let them know if it gets renewed for a second season.
undefinedThe action-packed series follows Queen Sono (Pearl Thusi), the highly trained top spy in a South African agency whose purpose is to better the lives of African citizens. While taking on her most dangerous mission yet, she must also face changing relationships in her personal life.

We have been doing that around the world and we want to do that in Africa as well. We tell great stories in entertainment capitals around the world.”
