The Old Man will not have a third season. FX has cancelled the drama series after two seasons on the cable network. Season two premiered in September.

Jeff Bridges, John Lithgow, Amy Brenneman, Alia Shawkat, and Gbenga Akinnagbe star in The Old Man series, inspired by Thomas Perry’s novel. The story follows former CIA operative Dan Chase (Bridges), who abandoned the agency decades ago and has been living off the grid ever since.

According to Deadline, the seven-episode second season did not perform as well ratings-wise as season one.

The first season of The Old Man was released in 2022 and was a success for the network. However, the industry strikes of 2023 caused a delay in production for season two, and that was likely a factor in the series’ ratings decline.
