Is a new season already in the works for the Paramount+ drama?
With Criminal Minds: Evolution premiering season 2 on June 6 on Paramount+, it’s no surprise to hear fans are ready to get reacquainted with the members of the BAU. But after the next installment, what’s going to happen to the show? Well, if Joe Mantegna’s latest video is a clue, we’ll be hanging out with the FBI for a little while longer.
As the hit procedural drama wrapped filming season 2 (season 17 in the overall Criminal Minds franchise) on May 10, the actor went on Instagram to share a behind-the-scenes look at the last moments on set. In a short clip posted on the platform, folks watched him address the cast and crew to thank them for all the effort they put into creating the upcoming episodes. But amid his impassioned speech, he seemingly implied there may be more stories in the works for Criminal Minds: Evolution.
“As the oldest person in the building,” he jokingly began, “I just wanted you to know this is the finest group of people that anybody can ever want to work with. I look forward to the next season. God bless you all.”
