Autobiographical black comedy-thriller Baby Reindeer, based on Gadd's own experiences, was released on Netflix in April.
The miniseries followed an aspiring comedian and sexual assault victim who gets stalked by a woman he meets bartending at a pub.
The news is a welcome distraction from reports that Baby Reindeer real-life stalker Fiona Harvey is demanding £135 million from Netflix after claiming the streaming giant's series was not based on a true story.
Netflix has pledged to 'vigorously defend' a lawsuit worth millions of dollars.
