American Rust has been cancelled for a second time so there will not be a third season. The drama debuted in September 2021 on Showtime and was cancelled after one season. The show was revived for a second season by Amazon Freevee, but the show ended up moving to Prime Video, and season two was released on March 28th.

Starring Jeff Daniels, Maura Tierney, Bill Camp, David Alvarez, Alex Neustaedter, Julia Mayorga, Mark Pellegrino, and Rob Yang, the series follows what happens when a man (Daniels) has his morals tested when the son of the woman he loves is accused of murder. The story is inspired by a novel by Phillipp Meyers.

Trib Live, which is based in the city of Pittsburgh where the series was filmed, revealed the following about the series’ cancellation:

The cancellation of “American Rust” is a shame, not just because of the jobs it provided local film crews, but because the series had so much promise. Season two moved at a faster pace with several surprising plot turns, including a cliffhanger ending that left the future for several series regulars uncertain.
