Irish crime drama Kin was renewed for a third series on RTÉ in October 2024, after one of its stars mentioned that there was a “bidding war” for the popular show.
"There is a little bit of a – I don't know if I'm stepping out of line when I say this – maybe even a bidding war,” said Emmett J Scanlan, who plays Jimmy Kinsella, adding: "But there is a lot of interest in it. I hope it comes back again. I would love to take on the role of Jimmy again. I'd love to."
