The inevitable death of Colombian drug kingpin Pablo Escobar (Wagner Moura) in "Narcos" season 2 won't mean the end of the Netflix show. In fact, it will pave way to more drug-trading stories.

Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, executive producer Jose Padilha pointed out that while Escobar was the focus of the first season and will also be at the spotlight for the second, "the show is not about Pablo."

"Pablo Escobar happens to be the man who created the mass business of cocaine trade. He's, for lack of a better word, the founding father of this business but the show is about cocaine. It's about drug dealers that deal cocaine," Padilha said.

Executive producer Eric Newman added that as opposed to the fear of many, there are a lot of directions the show can take after "Narcos" season 2 and that it is far from its conclusion.

"There are other drug dealers and there are alliances formed against Pablo so there are a multitude of stories we could tackle," Newman pitched.

He also already has a clear vision of "Narcos" and how long it could last. "We plan on stopping when cocaine stops," the EP promised.

The initial season of "Narcos" followed the exploits of Escobar and his rise as the most notorious drug kingpin. When fans last saw him, he managed to break out of the prison.

As history dictates, Escobar only lived 18 months following that escape. The last year and a half of his life will be the subject of "Narcos" season 2 and most of see him evade the grapple of the authorities.

More than a decade of Escobar's life was covered in the first season and since there are only 18 months to cover, "Narcos" season 2 might not be all about Escobar, at least based on that pace.

That being said, "Narcos" season 2 will likely also introduce new drug players to the fold when it releases on Netflix Friday, Sept. 2.
