It may have finished its run on BBC ONE - but Hunted creator Frank Spotnitz has confirmed that the series will continue without the BBC.
Last week the BBC was reported to have axed the Melissa George-starring spy drama, which completed its first season last (Thursday) night, but US co-producer Cinemax subsequently revealed that it would deliver a second season.
"This is the hazard of doing co-productions - it makes it complicated sometimes if you lose one of your partners," Spotnitz told Digital Spy.
"But we're going forward - it's sort of a spin-off of itself and it'll focus more squarely on the character of Sam Hunter. Hopefully it'll be on around this time next year."
The writer added that he "would very much expect" future Hunted episodes to air in the UK, adding that he has considered Sky - which already co-produces the series Strike Back with Cinemax - as a potential partner.
"It's occurred to me," he admitted. "I'm pretty confident that British viewers will get to see Sam Hunter as she continues."
Spotnitz also admitted that his initial plans for the second season of Hunted - which would have followed protagonist Sam to Berlin - were abandoned as a result of the BBC decision to drop the show.
"It's going to change - that [Berlin plot] was when we still had the BBC as a partner," he explained. "Now it's one of those funny things where it's the same character, but it's a different series.
"As it happens, from the way episode eight [of series one] ends, it actually makes it quite organic to launch off into a different series, but it's not the direction we would've gone in had we stayed with the BBC."
