Britannia will not be returning for a fourth season. The historical fiction drama, which aired on Sky in the UK and EPIX (now MGM+) in the United States, has been cancelled, leaving a significant cliffhanger unresolved, per Deadline.
Starring Kelly Reilly, David Morrissey, Nikolaj Lie Kaas, Liana Cornell, Gershwyn Eustache Jnr, Mackenzie Crook, Barry Ward, Stanley Weber, Joe Armstrong, Fortunato Cerlino, Callie Cooke, Aaron Pierre, Eleanor Worthington-Cox, Zoë Wanamaker, Ian McDiarmid, Julian Rhind-Tutt, Hugo Speer, Daniel Caltagirone, Zaqi Ismail, and Annabel Schol, the Britannia series is set in the year 43 AD as the Romans invade Britain.
Season three sees a radical transformation in Cait’s (Worthington-Cox) journey as the Chosen One with a decision that ties her to the future of her war-torn people and their ravaged land. Aulus (Morrissey) comes under pressure from a new and dark force – otherwise known as his wife (Okonedo), while Amena (Scholey) finds herself in a lethal ménage à trois with both of them. Divis (Kaas) gets a new job which he despises, and Veran goes to the underworld and sees the future.
The series has ended with its 27th episode. The story ends with a cliffhanger in which Cait (Cox) is betrayed by her mentor, who has wed General Aulus.
The series was created by Jez Butterworth, his brother Tom Butterworth, and James Richardson.
What do you think? Are you disappointed by the cancellation? Did you want a fourth season of this drama series?
This was my favorite TV series and I watch a lot of TV. I’m devastated! The story needs an ending! So not fair to the loyal fans!
Loved this show. Only recourse is to Cancel my MGM+ subscription then
This is disappointing. Perhaps leaving a cliffhanger should be for programs that have already been renewed.
Your cancellation of Britannia perfectly sums up why more and more viewers such as myself are unwilling to commit to a series: showrunners and/or studio executives are not committed to their audience. Why should I invest in a program only to be left to dangle on a cliff’s edge? Your behavior is more common than not unfortunately. Good luck to you.
Very sorry to hear there won’t be a 4th season. It was a great show.
I feel sick. Have been patiently waiting. This is just wrong!
I agree with every single response . This was a great show, so unique with great actors …and then you stop after a huge cliffhanger ? Why? People who make that decision to cancel , do they actually ever watch one of the shows they cancel ?
I started to watch only complete shows , as I don’t want to be disappointed anymore.
I really hope another network will take this show up, they will have a following for sure !
Sick of shows being cancelled left and right on cliffhangers. You don’t do this on decent runs!
why cancel a well running series i am so disappointed please reconsider the decision and finish it with S04
So sad to hear this.
Brittania was a great story with so much potential.
It was developing beautifully and now nothing.
Hopefully someone will realize this and pick it up for continuance.
Please reconsider this decision SKY !
Bring Brittania Back !!
Seriously…totally disappointed
The creators and the networks leave so many shows unfinished. Finish the F-ing story.
They build up to a huge cliffhanger and then cancel it. That shows they don’t care one bit about the viewers. Whoever made this decision sucks.
I had SPECIFICALLY subscribed to an “add on” service for this program, which I absolutely loved. I’m sooooooo disappointed.
I thought that they were working on Season 4, so this comes as a surprise!
I’m so disappointed ! I’ve been following news about this show since the end of last season.
