With the future of so many shows currently up in the air right now, Netflix has moved to cancel Altered Carbon.

Whereas earlier this week saw Netflix cancel I Am Not Okay With This after one season due to problems tied to the ongoing global pandemic, that reportedly is not the reason for Altered Carbon’s cancellation.

Via Deadline, the decision was actually made back in April to axe Altered Carbon, with the high cost of producing the show’s first two seasons cited as the driving factor behind this call.

Overseen by Laeta Kalogridis, Altered Carbon was an adaptation of Richard K. Morgan’s book series of the same name. Set in the future, those with the right money behind them are able to download their minds into new bodies any time the Grim Reaper comes a-calling. Joel Kinnaman headlined the first season as Takeshi Kovacs, but Kinnaman was replaced by Anthony Mackie for the show’s second year – while Will Yun Lee played the original Kovacs in both seasons.
