Streaming on the Netflix subscription service, Messiah stars Mehdi Dehbi, Tomer Sisley, Michelle Monaghan, John Ortiz, Melinda Page Hamilton, Stefania LaVie Owen, Jane Adams, Sayyid El Alami, Fares Landoulsi, and Wil Traval. The show chronicles the modern world’s reaction to a man who first appears in the Middle East. Al-Massih (Dehbi) creates a groundswell of international followers around him when he claims to be the eschatological return of ‘Isa (Jesus). Has he been sent by God or, is he a dangerous fraud who’s bent on dismantling the world’s geopolitical order?.
The first season of 10 episodes was released on January 1st. While the show’s season finale left the door open for a second season, Netflix has apparently decided not to continue the story. Actor Wil Traval, who plays Will Mathers in the series, shared the cancellation news via Instagram.
What do you think? Do you like the Messiah TV show? Would you have watched season two of this Netflix series?
I am disappointed that it was canceled. If was fantastic. Executives at Netflix please order a Season 2.

I just found this series and watched it with almost one view, awesome and should have had a season 2.
I am disappointed!
This was not only an excellent show but such a great thought experiment. I believe it is so true, if god, in any form representing any of the known religions actually showed up, he would be persecuted and probably killed most likely by the mist “religious” radical, evangelical nut bags among us.
Sad to see there will not be a part two. But maybe the point was made.
This world is so twisted. And the question comes, why for the perverted and evil the make season after season non stop? And for religious what?
I loved the serial, the story, very well made, I liked the actors too , I believe also with a great effort for producing . I would say “let’s pray to God” maybe Netflix will continue
It was one of the best Netflix original series. Why did they cancelled it?
Netflix is only bringing the shows that are satanic or of evil content! Why cancel a show about The Messiah I’m cancelling my subscription . They are too Satanic for me
What Netflix did is inappropriate they should keep the show running
