There will be no Brave New World Season 2 – at least on Peacock. The streaming service’s first big original series has been cancelled after one season, although Variety notes that the show’s studio Universal Content Productions will attempt to sell it elsewhere.

The title Brave New World had a very different significance a few months ago, but COVID-19 can't keep the upcoming Peacock streaming service from launching on July 19 with its high-profile adaptation of Aldous Huxley's iconic novel. Like other dystopian classics such as The Handmaid's Tale, Brave New World has been adapted several times for the stage and screen, but NBC Universal's high profile adaptation, in the works for several years, features an extremely intriguing cast, led by erstwhile Han Solo Alden Ehrenreich as John the Savage.
