Tiger King: New episode is coming to Netflix ‘next week’, says Jeff Lowe
There is good news for Tiger King fans who are feeling bereft after bingeing the whole series while on lockdown – series star Jeff Lowe has revealed that Netflix is releasing a bonus episode “next week”.
The zoo owner announced the new instalment in a video on Twitter: “Netflix is adding one more episode. It will be on next week. They’re filming here tomorrow.”
It is not clear how filming is taking place while the US is under lockdown, or whether the new episode will be a continuation of the series or more of a reunion special.
The Independent has contacted Netflix for comment.
Tiger King tells the story of Joe Exotic, a tiger trader embroiled in a rivalry with animal rights activist Carole Baskin. Their feud escalated so much it ended up with Exotic being sentenced to 22 years in prison for crimes including trying to hire someone to murder Baskin.
When the show came out, viewers branded it as “absolutely bonkers” and the “craziest show ever”.
