Season 1 was based on the first book in the Murderbot Diaries series, All Systems Red, ending exactly as the first book did. The second book in the series then sees Murderbot head off to RaviHyral mining facility, the place where it first hacked its governing module, where it also has memories of a massacre.

The renewal for Murderbot comes a day ahead of the show’s first season finale, set for July 11. The CBS Studios show is based on the first book in Martha Wells’ Hugo and Nebula Award-winning Murderbot Diaries novel series. Chris and Paul Weitz adapted the book and serve as showrunners.

Murderbot' wraps up its first season tomorrow, and Alexander Skarsgård's soap opera-obsessed AI robot will return.
