Minx may have been canceled by HBO Max, but star Jake Johnson promises that the 1970s-set show isn't going to stop its quest for a new home: 'I am eager to find a new platform for these episodes.'
The recent HBO Max cancelation of Minx doesn't mean that the show is over. Minx was originally granted a season 2 this past May, and production has been underway for some time now. However, HBO Max stunned many when it abruptly cancelled the series this week, alongside Love Life. As a show set in the 1970s and centered around the creation of the world's first pornographic magazine for women, it isn't yet clear what the future holds for the series.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY After it was removed from HBO Max, Jake Johnson, who plays the charming and experienced magazine publisher Doug, took to Instagram to announce that Minx intends to continue production and find a new streaming service willing to air the show. The cancelation of Minx caused widespread criticism, which appears to have driven the decision to search for a new chance to keep the show alive.
Yet, while HBO Max is certainly undergoing major changes, it isn't alone. The entire Warner Bros. line-up has been facing a complete overhaul due to the Discovery merger. With James Gunn hired to oversee DC Studios, many DC projects are facing changes as well, with movies like Wonder Woman 3 now in doubt. Since major projects are dead in the water, it comes as no surprise that the studio shake-up has led to quiet projects like Minx being canned along the way.
Could Another Streaming Service Save Minx? It remains to be seen if Minx will find a new home. While a family-friendly service like Disney+ would never take on a series with the amount of nudity that Minx contains, other streamers like Netflix and Prime Video might feel more suited to the show's subject matter. There has been a precedent for canceled shows finding new homes, as seen with titles like Lucifer and Manifest.
