Could there be a Banshee spin-off? Recently, showrunner Jonathan Tropper discussed his plans for the recently ended Cinemax series.
The action drama starred Antony Starr as an ex-con who assumes the identity of a small-town sheriff. The cast also included Ben Cross, Ivana Milicevic, Rus Blackwell, Ryann Shane, and Ulrich Thomsen. Banshee aired its final episode on May 20th.
When asked if he had any plans for a spin-off series, Tropper said there have been informal talks:
There are no investors, other than Cinemax. We have had some offhanded talks about it, but nothing in television really comes from talks like that. I think the only way any kind of spin-off or sequel would happen would be if I had a very clear vision of a great new show featuring some of these characters, and I would have to pitch it to Cinemax like any other show.”
He added that he would be open to a spin-off with Starr:
I don’t think we will be doing any spin-offs, but I’m always open to it. And if we did, I couldn’t imagine doing it without Antony.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of Banshee? Would you watch a spin-off series?
i would love love love it if banshee came back.
Definitely bring it back!
BANSHEE was my favorite show bar none…I hope there is a comeback with new twists and turns.
Miss the series. Excellent unpredictable scripts with strong convincing performances by a talented cast.
Bring Banshee back.
Yes!!!!! Bring it back
Yes definitely bring it back !!
YES!!!
Absolutely would watch a spin off. The show is an amazing adrenalin rush unlike anything else on television. The more “surviving” characters from the original cast the better. 🙂
I have watched reruns of Banchee and it is addictive.wish the show would return.That was a great show.Please bring back!!
Yes
Yes i would watch it again
Best show EVER – and I’m 76 years old and have seen LOTS of shows! There must be SOME way in which Banshee could come back for seasons 5, 6, 7, etc.
Banshee is my second favorite show of all time just barely behind Breaking Bad.I feel it ended way to soon.Awesome show. I hope a spinoff comes around.Im still hooked
Loved this show. Ended up buying it on Blue-ray. Would love to either see more seasons or a spin off. I feel like I’ve been left hanging!
I fell in love with this show. I can’t believe it’s bein canceled. It left me in tears! The characters are truly awesome. Anthony made the show but wouldn’t have been the same without the others. Please come back Anthony! !
