Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich on Netflix isn’t about your average joe, who suddenly went on a killing spree. So, we look at the intrigue behind this American financier.

True-crime might be a gripping genre, but it also suffers from a problem. Sometimes true-crime genre lacks the victim’s perspective, but this documentary is different. Along with actual footage of Jeffrey’s interviews, victims courageously narrate their chilling ordeals to the camera crew. We have established that Jeffrey Epstein wasn’t a nobody, rather he had some powerful connections.

Thus, the series draws attention towards a lot of high-profile politicians and celebrities. “The monsters are still out there,” One of the many victims warns the viewers. Academy Award Nominee Joe Berlinger has worked as a producer for the series. Lisa Bryant acts as the director of the docuseries, which received an IMDb score of 7.1.

Will there be a season 2 of Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich?

James Patterson and John Connolly published a book titled “Filthy Rich,” which became a New York Times bestselling book. Thus, the same book has served as the source material for the docuseries. The director’s decision to stick to the source material was a part of the charm of the docuseries.

But, since there isn’t a sequel to the book, the chances of season 2 of Jeffrey Epstein: Filthy Rich on Netflix is bleak. However, if Jeffrey’s case sees some major developments in the coming years, then fans could get a season 2.
