Joel Kinnaman, who stars as Takeshi Kovacs in Netflix's Altered Carbon, very recently said he doesn't think he'll be involved in the second season...

But now he's said he's actually not going to rule it out.

Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Kinnaman spoke about leaving the show, and revealed: "I can't confirm that. We don't know anything about the second season.

"I don't know what's going to happen. No-one does, really. Season two hasn't been picked up yet, so who knows?"

When asked if he'd be up for playing Takeshi Kovacs again, Kinnaman said: "If it was a cool story, for sure.

"I loved making this show. I had a great experience. The feedback has been fantastic. But I have no idea what's going on with the second season."

Altered Carbon has received a positive critical reception, though it has encountered plenty of controversy for alleged whitewashing and violence.

Set in a dystopian future where bodies are nothing more than a "sleeve" to carry your consciousness, the series sees people live forever by hopping through corpses.

It's therefore understandable that Kinnaman is as confused about the next season as the rest of us, since *SPOILER ALERT* the series closed with his consciousness finding a new body.

Altered Carbon is available to stream on Netflix now.
