The particular Sci-fi series was already considered a cult by many, but it seems that the good reviews were not accompanied by the expected audience for such an ambitious proposal.
‘Raised by Wolves’ started as a very ambitious science fiction project with Ridley Scott as executive producer and Aaron Guzikowski (screenwriter of ‘Prisoners’) as showrunner. After two seasons on HBO acclaimed by critics and undoubtedly converted into one of the most particular proposals on television, there will be no season 3.
‘Raised by Wolves’ will not have a third season, confirmed as a project that did not become the phenomenon that it could target in its business. If HBO was looking for a ‘Game of Thrones’ effect, the truth is that ‘Raised by Wolves’ never even reached ‘Westworld’.
The problem is that the second season, which premiered last February, had left fans of the series hooked and with the ball of unknowns in full growth. It’s one of those cancellations that hurts because it will leave so many questions unanswered.
This is how HBO Max announced the decision in a statement through The Hollywood Reporter:
While we will not be proceeding with a third season of ‘Raised by Wolves,’ we are beyond grateful to the stellar cast and crew, creators Aaron Guzikowski, Ridley Scott, David W Zucker, and the entire team at Scott Free Productions. , for his beautiful art and his unique ability to immerse fans in the world of Kepler-22b.
Abubakar Salim, who plays the android father along with the necromancer mother played by Amanda Collin, anticipated the official announcement about the future of the series in a long Twitter thread. In it he also points to reasons for business mergers related to HBO and WarnerMedia, which, according to the actor, are shelving several projects.
Call to action #RenewRaisedByWolves. It’s not surprising, especially after the news of the mergers and what’s happening at Warner, that many series don’t finish their stories. And unfortunately, one of those series is ‘Raised by Wolves’. Nothing has been shared publicly yet. And there is a reason for that. An important. One that I am here to share with you now. There is hope. You see, we’re in a unique position: we have a fully fleshed out and planned story, a Goliath of a production team behind us, an incredible reception from critics and reviewers alike, and most importantly, a fan base that’s so strong international level, it cannot be ignored.
Come on, Abubakar still has faith that the series can follow its destiny to, at least, give an end to its history, even if it is through another chain. Will ‘Raised by Wolves’ achieve a ‘Lucifer’?
For now, the only two seasons of ‘Raised by Wolves’ can be seen on HBO Max Spain.
