Netflix has announced there will be new episodes of its hit show Making a Murderer.

The 10-part true crime series told the story of Steven Avery, from Manitowoc County in Wisconsin, who's currently serving a life sentence for murder.

He's always denied killing 25-year-old Teresa Halbach, whose remains were found close to Avery's home in 2005.

There's no word on when season two will debut or how many episodes there will be.

The show shone a light on Avery and his family, who had previously been wrongly jailed for sexual assault.

The new episodes will feature Avery's new lawyer Kathleen Zellner as she takes on the case.

The news of season two was confirmed in a joint statement by two of the people behind the series, Laura Ricciardi and Moira Demos.

"We are extremely grateful for the tremendous response to, and support of, the series.

"The viewers' interest and attention has ensured that the story is not over, and we are fully committed to continuing to document events as they unfold."

Both Ricciardi and Demos are overseeing the new episodes.

The first series of the show got six Emmy nominations, including outstanding documentary or non-fiction series.

Here's the back story

Avery was wrongfully imprisoned for 18 years for sexual assault.

In 1985 he was charged and convicted for sexual assault, false imprisonment and attempted murder.

But in 2003 he was released when advances in DNA technology proved it was another man's crime.

After being set free and living a normal life for a short while, he was then accused and found guilty of the Halbach murder.

Many think he was set up by law officials in Manitowoc County, Wisconsin, who feared they faced a huge financial penalty over the first case.

But those officials have always dismissed the claims as conspiracy theory.
