"Wayward Pines" has just aired its finale and it proves that not all television series need to continue with no end in sight. But while their plan was to work on just one season, executive producer M. Night Shyamalan revealed that there are talks of what they could do in case Fox TV brings them on board for season 2. 

"The one thing I'm fearful of television is its open-ended nature," the filmmaker told Deadline. "I'm such an end backwards kind of filmmaker, storyteller, and that's what I loved about doing these 10 episodes. I knew where I wanted to go."

He then added, "But honestly, Blake and I do have an idea."  

Blake Crouch is the novelist who wrote the "Wayward Pines" trilogy of books on which the TV series is based. The entire season 1 encompassed the story in the three novels, so if they were to move forward with season 2, they'd have to come up with something new because there is no book to base their script on. 

Actors Matt Dillon, Melissa Leo, and Carla Gugino might not return as they only signed on for one season. However, the series ended quite differently from the books and was a little open-ended, hinting that they can still be brought back even if it appeared that Dillon's character died, having been killed off-screen. 

When asked if any of these characters would return for season 2 if the studios give the green light to do so, Shyamalan simply replied, "We have an idea we've discussed. That's all I'll say." 

In a report from Entertainment Weekly, showrunner Chad Hodge echoed Shyamalan's comments, stating that the ending wasn't meant to indicate a second season since they set out to make only these 10 episodes. 

"Really what it does is it comes full circle," Hodge told EW.
