Starz has also canceled Blindspotting and Heels.
“These are bold, well-crafted and nuanced character-driven stories that we believe in creatively, but they unfortunately did not find a large enough audience for us to continue,” a source told Urban Hollywood 411.
Professional wrestling drama Heels starred Stephen Amell as Jack Spade and Alexander Ludwig as Ace Spade. The series was created by Michael Waldron. It premiered in 2021, and ran for two seasons.
Comedy-drama Blindspotting was a spin-off of the 2018 film by the same name. The series was created and executive produced by Rafael Casal and Daveed Diggs. The main cast included Jasmine Cephas Jones as Ashley Rose, Jaylen Barron as Trish, Candace Nicholas-Lippman as Janelle, Benjamin Earl Turner as Earl, and Atticus Woodward as Sean.
Blindspotting premiered in October 2021, and ran for two seasons.
TheWrap reported Starz additionally canceled The Venery of Samantha Bird, featuring Katherine Langford as titular character Samantha Bird. The show shut down production when the Writers Guild of America strike began in May. The series never made it to air and will not be resuming production.
