Netflix 犯罪劇《Q 部門》將回歸第二季

Netflix has officially confirmed that its hit crime drama Department Q will be returning for a second season, much to the delight of fans. The show, which is set and filmed in the scenic city of Edinburgh, stars Matthew Goode as Detective Chief Inspector Carl Morck. Morck is a troubled and somewhat disorganized detective who leads a team of misfits working in the basement of a police station. Their main job is to tackle cold cases that were previously considered impossible to solve. The upcoming season will see Morck reunited with his team, including Alexej Manvelov as Akram, Leah Byrne as Rose, and Jamie Sives as Hardy. Department Q is based on a series of novels by Danish author Jussi Adler-Olsen. Originally, the story was known as Scandi noir, but after the director visited Edinburgh, the show took on a Scottish twist and became known as Tartan noir.

Before Netflix produced its English-language version, a Danish version of Department Q aired on the BBC. The Netflix adaptation, which premiered in May, was a major success and spent six weeks in the platform's top ten most-watched shows. Scott Frank, who wrote and directed the series and is also known for The Queen's Gambit, explained that the Scottish setting allowed him to highlight the humor found in the original books. He expressed his gratitude to Netflix and the cast and crew for supporting his creative vision. Executive producer Rob Bullock shared that the response to the announcement of a second season has been overwhelmingly positive. He revealed that the new season will be loosely based on the second book in Adler-Olsen's series, but the writers will also introduce new stories alongside the original material. Chloe Pirrie will join the cast as Merritt Lingard, a local solicitor.

Bullock emphasized that Edinburgh remains a crucial part of the show's identity. He described the city as cinematic and visually stunning, noting that many shows are set in Edinburgh but not actually filmed there. For Department Q, filming in the real city was an exciting opportunity to capture its beauty from every angle. The production team aims to create a visually striking thriller that showcases Edinburgh's unique atmosphere. Filming for the new season is scheduled to begin early next year. Netflix executives Mona Qureshi and Manda Levin expressed their enthusiasm for returning to the world of Department Q and praised Scott Frank for his exceptional storytelling. They are eager to see what mysteries Morck and his team will uncover in the second season and are thrilled to be back in Edinburgh.

Department Q stands out as a crime drama that combines suspense, mystery, and a strong sense of place. The show's focus on unsolved cases and its cast of complex characters have made it a favorite among viewers. Edinburgh's role as the backdrop adds depth and character to the series, making it more than just a setting. With the return of familiar faces and the promise of new stories, the second season is expected to build on the success of the first. Fans are looking forward to more thrilling investigations and the chance to explore Edinburgh through the eyes of Department Q. Netflix's commitment to the show and the excitement of the cast and crew suggest that the new season will be a must-watch for crime drama enthusiasts.
