Contains spoilers for Obsession

Netflix's newest drama series Obsession tells the rather steamy story of a surgeon named William (Richard Armitage), who begins an intense affair with his son's fiancée Anna (Charlie Murphy). What follows is four episodes worth of sexual tension, shocking revelations and plenty of secrecy.

The series ends on a rather ambiguous note, and it's got us wondering, will we see Anna and William again? There's a lot of questions that need answering and so this is everything we know about a potential second season of Netflix's Obsession.

How did Obsession season 1 end?

The final episode of Obsession ends with Jay discovering his father and Anna's affair, after he burst into the apartment and saw them having sex. As Jay runs away from the pair he dies going over the balcony.

The rest of the episode deals with the fall out of Jay's death, with William's wife Ingrid telling him she never wants to see him again.

Before Anna flees to France we see her at home with her mum. Her mum lets on that she knew about Anna's brother's obsession with her, leaving Anna furious and heartbroken that her mum did nothing to stop her brother.

William tracks Anna down in France, where she reveals she doesn't want to continue their relationship. William appears devastated and still obsessed with Anna.

When the pair end up back in London we see them separately in the flat they used to meet up. Anna is with Peggy, telling her she needs to move on.

Whereas William is in the flat with an estate agent, presumably he's interested in buying the property, therefore suggesting he's still obsessed with Anna.

The series ends ambiguously with Anna talking to a therapist, who asks her if she feels she needs rules. Anna replies "how strange" with a slightly suggestive look at her therapist. The episode ends there, leaving viewers with many questions.

What's happening with Anna and her therapist? Is William still obsessed with Anna? And where does Anna and her mum's relationship stand?

Will Obsession on Netflix get a second season?

As the series ends on such an ambiguous note, there's definitely plenty a second series of Obsession could delve into.

However, so far there's been no word from Netflix on if the series will be renewed. On Netflix it does say Obsession is a "limited" series so that does suggest it won't return.

Who would be in the cast of season 2 of Obsession?

If Obsession were to return for a second season we'd undoubtedly want to see the return of Richard Armitage as William and Charlie Murphy as Anna.

Though Ingrid, played by Indira Varma, said she never wanted to see William again, we would definitely be keen to see her return, maybe in a scene with Anna?

One person who probably wouldn't be returning is Rish Shah as Jay after he fell to his death in the final episode. But maybe there's scope for some flashback scenes?

We'll keep our fingers crossed.

Obsession is available on Netflix now
