It now appears that a third series could be in the making. "The team is actively developing a season 3 of The Mallorca Files that will continue the story of Miranda and Max, including those events the crew weren't able to shoot this time around,” according to a statement from the show.
Series two was cut short by the pandemic and only six of the ten episodes were completed. So there are the four missing episodes still to film, and the producers are hoping for the green light to return to Mallorca to film a new third series.
The sixth and final episode of The Mallorca Files – set on a Mallorcan horse ranch in the mountains – ended like any other episode, with the case solved and our detective duo sharing a moment to celebrate. So, surely Max Winter (Julian Looman) and Miranda Blake (Elen Rhys) will be back for more?
We would expect to see the return of Elen Rhys as British detective Miranda Blake alongside Julian Looman as German detective Max Winter. Their relationship is at the heart of the show, and they lead The Mallorca Files cast.
Returning characters would likely also include Palma police chief Inés Villegas (María Fernández Ache) and Max's girlfriend Carmen (Tábata Cerezo).
Then there are season two's newcomers to the forensics lab, Roberto and Luisa, played by Alex Hafner and Nansi Nsue respectively.
A third season would also include plenty more guest stars, from Spain and beyond.
The series has a great deal of support from the local authorities in Mallorca and the Council of Mallorca even produced a Mallorca Files map of the island featuring where the crimes were carried out and with explanations as to how to get to the wonderful locations that showed off the very best of the island.

The Mallorca Files is the best "cop" show on American TV. We watch it on PBS in San Diego. American TV and streaming channels offer views of lots of police adventures, but they are all very much the same. Mallorca Files not only has two terrific actors but good plots and writing, too. The emphasis is not on the crime but on the crime chasers, which makes the show great viewing. I hope there are more episodes. In the US, we usually know the status of programming but the shows from Europe are not so easy to pin down date and time-wise. We have family in Madrid and Leon. The next time we visit, perhaps a trip to Mallorca can be on the itinerary.
Great news, just watched the 2nd series again a couple of weeks ago when the weather was wet. This programme as daft as it is, is vastly entertaining and shows the island at its best. The night manager was a great showcase for Majorca, a serious drama with le carrier’s Hitchcock type cameo role, good guys bad guys. Even included pretentious English man baddies just for Morgan.Great scenery. Did the island proud.
