Leading up to the anticipated Outer Banks Season 5, actor J. Anthony Crane, who plays Chandler Groff on the show, has expressed his thoughts about the prospect of a potential spin-off prequel project. With four seasons already under its belt, the action-adventure drama series is set to conclude its successful run with season 5. However, there’s speculation that the story of Outer Banks might continue through spin-offs, as Crane believes a prequel series could be a possibility.
J. Anthony Crane talks Outer Banks prequel spin-off idea after Season 5
Recently, I was chatting it up with a well-known actor who’s killed it on both the big and small screens. He dropped an intriguing idea: spinning off the series by focusing on teenage counterparts of our adult characters could be just what we need to keep the Outer Banks franchise going strong after Season 5.
As a passionate gamer, I can’t help but feel like a treasure-hunting adventurer when talking to The Direct about J. Anthony Crane’s comments. In essence, he seems to suggest that not incorporating an exciting chase or mystery element in their production would be quite foolish. It’s not exactly like traditional treasure hunting, but it has that same thrilling allure, much like the Maltese Falcon in films – it’s the heart and soul of the story. The ‘thing’ we’re searching for could be likened to the Indiana Jones-esque quest or the spirit of ‘The Goonies’. Without that central focus, who knows what magic would be lost?
Crane further mentioned that “authors would undoubtedly find it enticing” to elaborate on this idea, expressing, “I am aware that readers are deeply connected with these characters, and they could certainly visualize the unfolding of these backstories. It would be unwise not to.
The groundwork for Outer Banks Season 5 hints at the possibility of a spin-off series centered around the parents of the OBX characters. Throughout the seasons, significant details about their past lives have been subtly revealed. Alongside Chandler Groff from the Cranes, the show has also given hints about JJ’s parents, Kiara’s family, Ward Cameron, Pope’s father, and even John B.’s dad.
Crane enthusiastically declared about the possibility of an Outer Banks prequel series, “They’ve certainly put together the foundation for it!” He expressed his eagerness for its development, adding, “I believe the writers would be thrilled to work on it. Fingers crossed!” However, Netflix has not yet made any formal announcement concerning this potential spin-off, and no release date for Outer Banks Season 5 has been confirmed either.
