It appears that whatever mysteries remained by the time the credits rolled on Baran bo Odar & Jantje Friese's (Dark) 1899 will remain just that. Earlier today, the showrunners confirmed that the series will not be returning for future seasons. "With a heavy heart, we have to tell you that '1899' will not be renewed. We would have loved to finish this incredible journey with a 2nd and 3rd season as we did with 'Dark.' But sometimes, things don't turn out the way you planned. That's life. We know this will disappoint millions of fans out there. But we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts that you were a part of this wonderful adventure. We love you. Never forget," read the statement from Odar and Friese that was posted on Odar's Instagram account.

Here's a look at Odar's post from earlier today confirming the news:

What they find on board will turn their passage to the promised land into a nightmare-like riddle, connecting each of the passenger's pasts through a web of secrets.
