Armando Iannucci’s space comedy Avenue 5 has been officially canceled by HBO. The Warner Bros. Discovery premium cable network has finally confirmed that the series will not return for a third season.
It comes eight months after Deadline revealed that the series was likely coming to an end and a few days after star Hugh Laurie emerged as the star of season three of Apple TV+’s Tehran. “Going to space with Armando Iannucci has been an incredible journey.
