Netflix has dropped first look pictures of Lupin Part 2, teasing that the second instalment is "coming soon".

The images, from the upcoming show, were shared on Twitter on Wednesday. A quick teaser was also released, which reads: "Lupin Part 2 is coming ... soon.

"In the meantime, here's your first look at Part 2."

Check out the teaser snaps below:


Teasing the upcoming season, Netflix added in a statement: "This isn't a game anymore.

"Assane's quest for revenge against Hubert Pelligrini has torn his family to pieces. With his back to the wall, he now has to think of a new plan, even if it means putting himself in danger."

Oooooh. We're *so* excited for Assane to return to our screens.

The French-language crime thriller debuted earlier this year and received rave reviews for its contemporary reimagining of the Arsène Lupin series of novels by Maurice Leblanc.

It follows Assane Diop (played by Omar Sy) whose life is turned upside down when his father died after being accused of a crime he didn't commit.

Now 25 years on, Assane turns criminal mastermind and gets inspiration from a book about gentleman thief Arsène Lupin to seek revenge.

The second half of season one also features five episodes directed by Ludovic Bernard (The Climb) and Hugo Gélin (Love at Second Sight).

Fans will remember that in Part 1, Assane's teenage son was kidnapped on his birthday by one of Pellegrini's henchman, Leonard.

Speaking to Variety, Sy said that Part 2 is about showing his character as the father figure that he is, and watch as he stops as nothing to find his son.

"His main tool is his head," Sy said. "He has difficulties working with his feelings - his heart and belly. So now his son is in danger [and] he will have to work with his instinct, and he never did.

"It's the same tool that you become a dad: You cannot be a dad just with your head. So, for me, it was a way for him to become a dad. He's not really in the first episodes, but he will become it, and this is the way of it."

The first series was streamed by 70 million households since its launch, becoming the first French-language series to make it into Netflix's top 10 list in the US and UK.

It also reached the top spot in France, Brazil, Vietnam, Argentina, Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland, the Netherlands, the Philippines, Sweden and more.

We think it's safe to say a lot of people are going to be happy to see this show hitting our screens again!

We'll update you as soon as we have more details on a release date.
