DC shows Titans and Doom Patrol have been cancelled. Both DC shows are currently airing their fourth seasons respectively, and will end once all of the episodes that have already been filmed have been broadcast on HBO Max.
In light of the news, a disgruntled viewer tweeted new DC head James Gunn, and suggested that he and his new partner Peter Safran have "a mighty big hill to climb to win the majority of fans over". Gunn responded by revealing that he and Safran didn't make the call to axe the superhero series.
"The decision to end the series precedes us," he stated candidly. "But I certainly wish the best for the talented group of creators, actors, and the rest of the crew that produced both shows."
"I'm immensely proud of our gifted cast, crew, and writing staff and their efforts in bringing to life all forty-nine episodes over the last five plus years," showrunner Greg Walker said of the unexpected wraps elsewhere. "I'm incredibly grateful for their unyielding trust throughout this process. Lastly, I have to thank our incredible fans for their continued support, engagement, and the passionate community they've built around our show. We have six episodes left to unleash upon the world that we hope will give our beloved characters the creative closure we all know they deserve."
Starring Diane Guerrero, April Bowlby, Jovian Wade, Michelle Gomez, Matt Bomer, and Brendan Fraser, Doom Patrol's fourth season, which aired its first half between December 8 and January 5, has so far seen the eponymous group vow to do more heroic deeds as the threat of Immortus looms.
