Netflix renews its animated series adaptation of the video game “Devil May Cry” for a third season, which will be the show’s final. Multiple outlets report that Season 3 is already in development following the release of Season 2. The renewal is framed by showrunner Adi Shankar as part of a planned narrative structure for the series. Shankar compares the season arc to Dante’s “Divine Comedy,” saying Season 1 corresponds to “Inferno,” Season 2 to “Purgatorio,” and Season 3 to “Paradiso.” He also describes the series’ overall design as something mapped in advance, referencing episode naming and a broader blueprint for how the story is meant to conclude. Gizmodo additionally characterizes the planned run as a “movie trilogy disguised as television series,” reflecting the intended shape of the ending. Variety, The Hollywood Reporter, Deadline, Polygon, and NME all agree that Netflix has formally ordered the third and final season and that it will complete the adaptation’s run.
