It looks like Chloe King may indeed have nine lives, or at least her show may have a second one. At today’s ABC Family session of the Television Critics Association Press Tour, president Michael Riley said that a TV movie of cancelled The Nine Lives of Chloe King may be coming.
The Nine Lives of Chloe King was cancelled in September following a less-than-successful season of 10 episodes. Like many ongoing serials that end prematurely, Chloe King left viewers with lots of unanswered questions. In the final episode, Chloe (Skyler Samuels) lost another of her lives and was kissed by Brian (Grey Damon) — who then died (?) from the contact. Alek (Benjamin Stone) walked in on his brother Zane (Daniel Sharman) as he stood over Jasmine (Alyssa Diaz) and Valentina (Alicia Coppola) as they are dying from poison.
Interestingly, Riley prefers not to talk about the cable channel’s decisions to cancel certain shows and that includes Chloe King. He said, “We never talk about cancelling shows at ABC Family. We always make sure we air all of our productions because for us, it’s very much a long-term view. Honestly, we love all of our shows, and Chloe King is such a great example of just an amazing show. We loved the cast, we loved the writing in that show. For us, it was about making some decisions. We had to choose between what we thought was resonating stronger with the audience.”
Riley continued, “We are actually on the verge of putting a movie into development. For us, we are always looking at the intellectual property that we’re capitalizing on and making sure there is opportunity.” He emphasized that the projects not a done deal yet however, saying, “We are just looking at it in development right now. The idea is very much to capitalize on the storytelling that’s already been in place.”
What do you think? Would you like to see a Chloe King movie? What other “cancelled” ABC Family shows should be given a second look?

A Chloe King movie would be awesome! So many of the questions were left unanswered. The movie would have to be long though because of all the questions. I wis that the TV show was still going because the TV show was very intresting.
A movie would be ok, if they used ALL of the same cast. But ABC Family is really missing the boat if they don’t go for another season. They just need a different time slot and more publicity. This “intellectual property” is a gold mine. You could sell a whole clothing line, makeup, jewelry, etc. to all of us TNLOCK fans.
Move, movie series, or second season? I don’t care, I just want an ending! How could they possibly leave us with so many cliff hangers? To me, that’s just cruel!!
please bring it back <3 http://www.petitionbuzz.com/petitions/tnlock sign the petitionn….anythign would be good, i just love this show so much…and they dont really hava a fantasy show on abcfamily..they need somethign new besides realistic fiction with murder as its main theme….bring it back!!!! chloe king forever!!!
Chloe king deserves a second chance. So much better than many of this networks other shows. Other networks let shows like Buffy run for close to 200 episodes and the cast and plot on this show is 10xs better than Buffy or it’s spinoff, angel, ever were. Come on -ABC, put some family back into your network and cancel some of the trash that y’all have kept running that’s depraved of any family values!
YES! I just watched the episodes on netflix and I am hanging! Why would they cancel such a great show???
they should show ninelives every summer
the movie would work too!
i think they should just start a new season….the first one was fantastic, so, why not make a second season? obviously people really enjoyed it
I totally agree! It was an amazing series and it literally broke my heart to see it cancelled. They really need to make a second season to end all of the clif hangers and unanswered questions.
Would love to see a season 2! Please bring it back!
please would be nice to see the movie, but even more beautiful to see the continuing of this series for me is fantastic, full of adrenaline, emotions, feelings, magic! I immediately fell in love with this story, please think about it! in Italy there are many fans who want a second season! perfavore sarebbe bello vedere il film ma ancor più belle vedere il continuo di questa serie che per me è fantastica,ricca di adrenalina , emozioni, sentimento,magia! io sono mi sono innamorata subito di questa storia, perfavore pensateci !! in italia ci sono molti fan che desiderano una seconda… Read more »
I have discovered that the show was based on a book series (I absolutely LOVE shows based on books, and then get all wrapped up in the books that got them there, and of course always feel the books are far better than the shows, etc.) That being said, I suppose there is already a whole storyline that we will never see. Although I would personally preferr that they figure out that the show should obviously get another few seasons, it appears that a movie is all we can hope for. Maybe the movie will be so well received that… Read more »
couldnt have said it better myself
I would love a movie I just hope they keep Brian dead. He was the worst character on the show. Alec and Chloe were great.
it Alek & chole = chalek
I am excited that they are going to give a finish to the story with a movie, though I would prefer a second season. I don’t think “Jane By Design” is going to take off and it could replace that. I am also not a fan of “The Lying Games,” so it wouldn’t sadden me at all if a second season of “The Nine Lives of Chloe King” took that place either. While there may have been a small fan base for “Chloe King,” it had a die hard fans, not people who only watched here and there. I hope… Read more »
I would love to see a chloe king movie… it ended in such a huge cliffhanger the show deserves to have a wrap up ending at least even if it is through a movie.
No way should there be a movie… I think jane by design should be replaced by nine lives of chloe king!!!!! I personally think there is way to many questions unanswered!!! And if they do make it into a movie its goin to be like 3 to4 hours long… One of the questions would be is Alek and Chloe goin to hook up? Is Alek going to dye or is chloe? What does Brains dad want with Chloes mom, exactley?…. All those questions and many more ae still not answered……..
Jane By Design? Don’t even know what that is, sounds like reality TV. Anyway, your comment gave me an idea: Why dont’ they do a mini-series like they did for Samurai Girl? That’d give them more time to develop an exciting story.
right on!
me too
a grate start for season 2 why don’t they make the bad stuff that
happen episode 10 a nightmare
in chloe dream
Yes pleasee I want to see the cloe king MOVIE
!!!____
You bet we want the movie to kick off another year of The nine lives of Chloe!
