We don’t always get to see an amazing science fiction comedy as excellent as Avenue 5. And the plus point of it being a series is incredible. Now the series Avenue 5 premiered 2 seasons and spectators have been wondering about the continuation of another.

‘Avenue 5’ Season 3 Is Not On The Cards

It looks like Avenue 5 will not be returning to Earth. We have learned that Avenue 5 has been officially canceled and will not return for a third season. As a result, we will not see the show’s proper conclusion.

HBO said in a statement that it has been an amazing journey with the team. But they are officially not moving forward with another season.

“Going to space with Armando Iannucci has been an incredible journey.” Adding, “While we will not be moving forward with a third season of Avenue 5, we look forward to many more adventures together.”

The official synopsis of the series by HBO Max reads, “All aboard for a hilarious journey across the universe in this HBO comedy series from Armando Iannucci [HBO’s Veep]. Set 40 years in the future when traveling the solar system is a booming business, the series follows life on board Avenue 5, a mash-up of a cruise liner and an interplanetary rocket ship packed with luxury amenities. Hugh Laurie stars.”

The Team Of ‘Avenue 5’ Were Optimistic About Another Season

The news is even more disappointing for Avenue 5 enthusiasts because the team stated in an interview in October 2022 that they are optimistic about the show’s future.

They were ‘very keen’ for a third season to take place and show Avenue 5’s return to Earth. When asked if the show would be canceled after season two, the executive producer cleared.

Armando Iannucci said, “No. No, no, no, it’s not. No.”

Lannucci further added, “HBO doesn’t really renew a season until the previous season is going out,” he said. “Because we got delayed by the pandemic by about 18 months, we knew that meant everyone’s contracts would run out because they’re contracted for a certain period.

We just thought, everyone, ‘s got 101 other things to be doing, so it would be unfair to kind of keep them on hold in limbo. But everyone wants to do more.

HBO is very keen. We’ll make more when we can corral everyone together again. Everyone’s up for it and we’ve already got ideas and thoughts about what happens next.”

And lastly said, “Really, all hell ensues. They fly toward the sun in one episode, there’s an outbreak of fascism, there’s a lockdown while someone dangerous is onboard the ship, and then there’s a death lotto. It’s basically everyday life but in space!”

‘The Halls Of The Canceled’

The series ended with the ship split up. And in order to stay alive, both parties must struggle. Not only that, but they must doom the other half of Avenue 5 to death while surviving. An ending like that makes us want to see more. But unfortunately, the crew didn’t make it back.

In an interview, Woods said, “We might not get away with it. The public may turn on us and we all may be relegated to the Halls of the Canceled.”

Crischlow said, “I hope not. I think we do get away with it.”

Woods added, “We don’t know. We may be canceled imminently.”
