Stephen Graham has addressed the possibility of doing "another" Adolescence story following the show's huge success.
The Netflix four-parter has become a big critical and viewing hit since its release earlier this month, already breaking the record for the most-watched UK title on Netflix ever.
The series follows the story of a 13-year-old boy who is accused of the murder of a female classmate, and was conceived as a limited series.
However, Variety notes that it is likely that the streamer has been in touch about a potential sequel, something Graham was asked about in an interview with the publication.
"Possibly, let’s see how the figures are," he said. "But yeah, there’s the possibility of developing another story."

Executive producer Hannah Walters, who is also Graham's wife, further suggested it would be "hard" to follow up something like Adolescence, also ruling out a prequel.
"A prequel to Adolescence, that’s certainly not going to happen," she said. "But there’s so much mileage in the one-shot and so much mileage in investing into human nature again and looking at something else. But yeah, everything’s looking good… everyone’s happy, shall we say?"
As well as the biggest British show, Adolescence recently made history as the first streaming series to top the UK's weekly TV ratings, ahead of traditional broadcast shows.

In Digital Spy's five-star review of the series, we said: "The very best drama has the power to irrevocably move you and spark conversation, and Adolescence does both."
Meanwhile Adolescence director Philip Barantini has detailed Hollywood star Brad Pitt's "hands on" role in the series after being credited as an executive producer.
Adolescence is available on Netflix now.
