Antonio Campos ­– who helmed (and co-wrote) the film – recently hinted he wanted to create more titles set in Knockemstiff, The Devil All the Time’s setting.

"I would love to create a Knockemstiff universe," Campos told Digital Spy. "And keep visiting that world and characters if someone gave me the chance.

As is the way with many films with sequel hopes, much of the deciding factor is down to whether the first film performs well.”

As Netflix does not release viewing figures in detail, it’s currently unclear if a sequel will be greenlit. However, if commissioned, future films could be based on Knockemstiff, the collection of short stories penned by The Devil All the Time author Donald Ray Pollock.
