Beowulf shall return to the Shieldlands, no more. C21 Media reports ITV has cancelled its Beowulf TV series after the first season. The news that Beowulf would get the axe, first broke in February.
In the US, Beowulf airs on Esquire. A fantasy drama, based on the Old English epic poem, the series stars Kieran Bew in the title role. William Hurt, Joanne Whalley, and Ed Speleers also star.
Here is more from C21 Media:
ITV had high hopes for the £17m (US$23m) adaptation of the epic poem but the programme ultimately failed to achieve high viewing figures.
An ITV spokeswoman told C21 this morning: “ITV regularly refreshes its drama portfolio and consequently Beowulf: Return to the Shieldlands isn’t returning to the channel.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of the Beowulf TV show? Do you think Beowulf should have been cancelled, or renewed for a second season?
The series is amazing. We want a second season released immediately.!!!!?
I only just now found Beowulf and I marathoned through the 1st season, sure there had to be a 2nd. I LOVED it, you jerks! Bring it back. (Wasn’t a fan of the GofT copy cat intro but otherwise such good show!)
I was a fan of the beowulf series and I’m looking for the second season, I tried streaming on google and just found out that it was cancelled……
Yes bring it back. Want to see what will happen with the shifters and the new rulers
Yes season 2 would have been great, enjoyed the 1st one 🙂
Thats just wrong! It’s a good series, if you were going to cancel it why not at least give the fans some closer. To bad it was a good series
amazon prime should bring us a season two, PLEASE!
We are highly upset there is not more me and my wife loved we couldnt stop watching it and would love to see more
At least finish the series don’t leave it off at a cliffhanger….
I was sad when they cancelled the series .. just left the fans hanging ..
Yes have another season. It is really awesome and the second season will be much appreciated.
Yes I loved the show and would like to to see a season 2
