In addition to data about viewership and popularity, we also analyse the plot and use cast interviews as well as insider knowledge, to calculate changes for new season approval.

The Maurice Leblanc popular character, Arsene Lupin, was featured in 17 novels and several other short stories, for a total of 24 books. The first season refers to several novels (including Lupin’s “Aiguille Creuse”) so the series certainly doesn’t follow a linear order. More over, the Assane character is NOT Arsene Lupin itself, but takes inspiration from Lupin. However, the richness of stories from Maurice Leblanc Novels means there is a lot of potential for new plot and twists in the Netflix series.
