Addressing the possibility of ‘Code 8: Part 3’, Stephen Amell shared his enthusiasm during MegaCon Orlando. He expressed a desire for an exploration of Lincoln City’s depths, stating, “I want to know more about Lincoln City. I want to know more about the powers that we have in the city.”

Reflecting on the sequel, Amell emphasized that while ‘Code 8: Part 2’ delves into characters and the power dynamics, there’s a rich narrative potential still untapped.

 “We are still very much at the street level of Lincoln City and obviously there has to be a hierarchy up there. So, I think that we tell a compelling story. You do learn more about Robbie’s character and my character and the power population, but it just still very much feels like it’s scratching the surface.”

For those eager to catch up on the ‘Code 8’ series, both ‘Code 8’ and ‘Code 8: Part 2’ are currently available for streaming on Netflix.
