‘The Franchise’ Canceled After One Season at HBO
HBO has canceled its superhero movie satire series 'The Franchise' after one season.
Aya Cash, Jessica Hynes, Billy Magnussen, Lolly Adefope, Darren Goldstein and Isaac Powell rounded out the ensemble, and Richard E. Grant and Daniel Brühl were recurring cast members. “We’re so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with the tremendously talented team behind ‘The Franchise,’ especially Sam Mendes, Jon Brown, Armando Iannucci, and this hilarious ensemble of actors,” an HBO spokesperson said in a statement to Variety. Variety chief TV critic Alison Herman gave “The Franchise” a mixed review, writing that what the show brings to the table “is not fresh insight into the problems that ail popular culture, but the well-honed cynicism of a comedy coaching tree.”
