La fifth season of “Rocco Schiavone” ended on April 19, 2023 on Rai 2, leaving fans anxious to know if there will be one sixth season of the series with Marco Giallini. Let's analyze the information that emerged regarding the future of the series. There could be problems due to the resignation of the CEO of Rai Carlo Fuortes.

The sixth season of Rocco Schiavone

The television series "Rocco Schiavone" was broadcast by Rai 2 in April 2023. In four episodes, the deputy commissioner Schiavone faced new adventures and solved plots related to the boss Enzo Baiocchi.

The Rai 2 series is based on the novels and short stories by Antonio Manzini, who dedicated a large part of his literary career to the character of Schiavone. The material original for new bets it is practically sold out, but viewers can breathe a sigh of relief: “Rocco Schiavone 6” will happen.

The producer and founder of the Cross Production company, Rosario Rinaldo, announced:

“The sixth season of Rocco Schiavone is already in the works. Four episodes of 100 minutes”.

Antonio Manzini could write new stories dedicated to the assistant commissioner Schiavone, but, being an active part of the television project, could also create new storylines specifically for the television series.

Possible release date for Rocco Schiavone 6

Taking into account the time needed for the preparation of the audiovisual material and the cadence between one season and another, it is probable that the sixth season of “Rocco Schiavone” be transmitted during the 2025. For further information, we will have to wait for new official press releases from the production and Rai.

Problems for Rocco Schiavone 6

Un turbulent change is about to collapse exacerbated by the recent resignation of the CEO Carlo Fuortes. These turmoils don't even spare the world of fiction, and in particular a certain show that has never hidden the political convictions of its main character: we're talking about Rocco schiavone, interpreted by Marco Giallini.

Despite the fifth season success, and with the sixth in preparation, uncertainty pervades the television environment. According to rumors collected by Marco Ajello on the Messenger, the future of the policeman who is not exactly in line with the dictates of the right-thinking right could hang in the balance. Here is the excerpt of Dagospia which raised doubts:

“And we will see Rocco Schiavone, that is Giallini, in the sixth season version which is already being worked on (five 100-minute episodes) but who knows?”

Despite the production of Rocco Schiavone 6 has already begun, and despite the growing success of the series on Rai 2, it seems that there could be a sudden stop to the works. Such a decision, especially if due to a political veto, would be somewhat unjustified. However, given the current situation of uncertainty in public TV, portrayed in the media these days, that might not be entirely surprising.
