Inside Man is a drama-thriller television series developed by Steven Moffat. The four-episode series premiered on September 26, 2022, and was broadcast on BBC One. It was released on Netflix in the US on October 31, 2022. Inside Man, starring Tucci and David Tennant, tells the tale of a killer on death row who solves cases and is mysterious enough that people from the outside world bring him. Tennant plays a vicar whose life is changed by a misunderstanding that occurs over the course of the following two days.
The post-credit scene, in which Janice visits Grieff to ask for help with her husband’s death, seems to suggest that Inside Man will return for a second season, but there has been no word on that as of yet. There is definitely a chance to continue the series, given that Grieff is intended to be put to death, and that the time period of the show takes place throughout around two to three days in the life of the protagonists, with the final scene switching to a week later.
As evidenced by his rejection of the case of the mysterious $253.55 payments, Grieff only takes cases that are morally worthless. When asked why her husband isn’t dead, Janice responds, “No, but he deserves to be.” Janice’s past is undoubtedly bleak, whether it involves domestic abuse or something else else. She either has a very cunning mind or has dealt with potentially dangerous situations before based on the way she calmly handles herself while Harry is imprisoning her and how she pits Harry and his wife Mary against one another.
The mirroring that might occur as a result of Janice’s journey to Grieff is the most intriguing option. The dynamic between Jefferson Grieff and Janice Fife in Inside Man season 2 would be fascinating because Jefferson Grieff killed his wife and Janice Fife wants to kill her spouse. Grieff has a small window of opportunity to assist Janice with her request because it is also revealed in the post-credits sequence that he has just one week left before being executed for the death of his wife. It is obvious that Steven Moffat would have a riveting story to tell if he compared Janice and Jefferson’s violent intents toward their spouses. The similarities between the two characters would also give a justification for revisiting figures like Beth, a journalist friend of Janice’s, Ben, Harry’s son, and David Tennant, who played Harry in the Netflix series.
Even Moffat admitted to Radio Times that he could be open to a sequel, adding, “It’s not really up to me, and it’s not up to the broadcasters – it’s up the audience really, isn’t it? And if anyone wanted it, you have to sit down and think, ‘Is there anything to do?’” He insisted that the story ends after the first four episodes and that he is unsure of what will happen to the series moving forward.
