Overview
- HBO Max canceled Raised by Wolves after two seasons despite stronger reviews in season two and solid streaming numbers for the show.
- David W. Zucker said Monday that the studio had been ready to make a third season but the WarnerMedia–Discovery merger and the arrival of new leadership led the streamer to set that season aside.
- Zucker and executive producer Ridley Scott expressed disappointment and said they hope the series can be revived, but no network or platform has officially picked up the show.
- The cancellation halted a story that ended on clear narrative momentum and left cast and crew without the planned work and closure that a new season would have provided.
- Coverage places the decision in the wider pattern of post-merger content cuts at Warner Bros. Discovery, a trend that could prompt creators to seek other outlets or for the company to reconsider select shows in future negotiations.
