Mike Flanagan's Carrie TV show has hit Prime Video in full, but its cliffhanger ending has fans thinking that a season 2 may be on the horizon. However, although Flangan admits to leaving the story open-ended, he did it mainly to honor Carrie White.

Warning, the following contains spoilers for the new Carrie series, so make sure you are all caught up before reading on. But first, check out our Carrie review first.

"As far as whether it could lead to something else down the line, my priority was always to get to the last frame of this season and honor the character and honor the arc and show the tip of the iceberg of that bigger world," said Flanagan to ScreenRant.

Based on Stephen King's hit horror novel, the show follows social outcast Carrie White with telekinetic powers. The show makes a lot of changes to King's original story, such as its modern setting, the focus on social media, and the fact that Carrie is alive at the end of the series, even though she dies in the book. You can read more about that in our Carrie ending explained. But Flanagan also adds a stack of mystery characters led by Kate Siegel, who we are never really properly introduced to.

Well, those women could be the focus of a possible Carrie season 2 . "I do think there's a ton of potential for more, especially with those characters," adds Flanagan. "I think there are so many of those women who we meet, especially in 7 and 8, who I would love to know a lot more about.
