BBC's 'Film Club' Will Not Return For Season 2

The move reflects reports that Aimee Lou Wood plans to focus on other writing.

Overview

  • Deadline reported Monday that the BBC comedy will end after one season, with The Independent echoing the report.
  • The non-renewal is described as a mutual decision, with Wood prioritising other writing and the BBC said to be relaxed about moving on.
  • The BBC declined to comment on the decision, according to Deadline.
  • The six-part romantic comedy followed Evie, who runs a film club in her mum's garage with her best friend Noa, and featured Nabhaan Rizwan, Suranne Jones, Liv Hill and others.
  • Despite strong reviews and a BAFTA Best Actress nomination for Wood, the series will close out its run, which marked the screenwriting debut of Wood and co-writer Ralph Davis and was produced by Gaumont UK with support from ZDFneo, with Fremantle handling international sales.
