The second season of the hit Netflix series only had seven episodes and ended on quite the cliffhanger, leading fans to wonder what will happen next.

The upcoming episodes have already been filmed and creator Hwang Dong-hyuk has promised that the next season will debut in 2025.

“When I first wrote the story of Seasons 2 and 3 it was one long story arc. And I was originally planning to write this story across a span of about eight to nine episodes, but once I finished the story, it came to over 10 episodes, which I thought was too long to contain in a single season. And so I wanted to have an adequate point where I could give closure as a second season and then move on with the third,” he told Variety.

The third season will reportedly be the final season.
