Netflix Cancels ‘The Get Down’ After One Season

Netflix has officially cancelled The Get Down after one season. The news arrives after part two of season one was released last month. The hip-hop themed series, set in South Bronx, New York City in the late ’70s, lasted just 12 episodes and cost around $120 million to make.

“We experienced things together that I will never forget,” Luhrmann said in a Facebook post. “All of us in The Get Down family have been touched by this precious mission of telling the pre-history of a form of culture that would go on to change not only the city, but the world.”

Earlier this year, Luhrmann said that they had “already developed the opening of the next season” and that Sony and Netflix have been “very driven about having a second season.”
