The streaming giant has renewed the crime drama for a third season. 

Ozark is heading back to Netflix with another season.

The series follows the Byrde family, with patriarch Marty (Bateman) working as a financial adviser as well as a money launderer for a Mexican drug cartel. The second season of Ozark saw the Byrde family and most notably Wendy (Linney), dive further into the world of crime.

Bill Dubuque and Mark Williams created the series which was penned by Chris Mundy. Mundy also serves as executive producer and showrunner. Dubuque, Williams, and Bateman also serve as exec producers. 

Ozark earned five nominations at last month’s Emmys, including Best Actor and Best Director for Bateman.
