The Nurse Jackie sequel series is still in the works, but Showtime is no longer behind it. Deadline reports that Amazon MGM Studios is now working on the potential series. The sequel project was announced in 2023 and if the series moves forward, Edie Falco (above, right) is set to return in the title role.
The original Showtime series aired for seven seasons between 2009 and 2015. Nurse Jackie follows ER Nurse Jackie Peyton as she works at a New York City hospital while struggling with addiction.
Deadline revealed more about the sequel series project:
10 years after we left Jackie Peyton (Falco) clinging to life in the series finale, we find her back on her feet in spite of having lost her nursing license. The continuation of her story will find her facing new dilemmas in trying to be good in a world where being bad is often not only easier, but a lot more fun.
Additional details will be announced later.
