The Finale in a Nutshell (Spoilers!)
The season comes to its brutal conclusion with one of the most cold-blooded betrayals in recent streaming memory. After a club shooting leaves drug lord SherKhan dead and the entire Lafleur operation under threat — from Venezuelan partners, local police, and rival crews simultaneously — Kylian (Milord) is left with seemingly no way out.
He sends Kingsley off on a boat with cash and a promise of a new life abroad. But as Kingsley rides his scooter toward that boat and that freedom, a hitman on another scooter runs him down and shoots him — twice. The family van drives right past the scene, blissfully unaware.
The final image says it all: the camera zooms in on Kingsley’s lifeless body in a ditch, and there is no Lafleur family ring on his finger. Kylian had taken it back earlier — confirming, without a single word of dialogue, that he ordered the hit on his own brother.
It’s devastating, masterfully constructed, and leaves the Lafleur family saga wide open for continuation.
What Loose Ends Remain?
Several major threads are left unresolved heading into a potential Season 2: Kylian’s volatile relationship with his Venezuelan connect, Fatso’s crew having already plotted a takeover, corrupt official Croquet still wanting his money back, and the looming murder investigation that could eventually circle back to Milord himself.
Will Bandi Get a Season 2?
Netflix hasn’t officially greenlit a second season yet, but the creators are clearly planning ahead. Co-creators Capucine and Éric Rochant have stated the show was conceived to run multiple seasons, noting that the actors playing the Lafleur siblings deeply inspired their writing and that future seasons would allow those characters to grow further. Éric Rochant added that while two seasons ordered upfront is rare, groundwork for Season 2 scripts has likely already begun — as was the case with Blood Coast, whose third season is now in production.

Q: Has Netflix renewed Bandi for Season 2?
