In a surprising move, Amazon's Prime Video has decided to cancel the historical fantasy drama 'My Lady Jane' after just one season. The series, which premiered in June, blended romance and alternate-world fantasy, offering a unique take on the story of Lady Jane Grey, the "Nine-Day Queen" of England.
Despite positive reviews from critics and a 94% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, the show failed to attract a large enough audience to warrant a second season. The cancellation comes as a shock to fans who were captivated by the show's imaginative retelling of Tudor history and its intriguing mix of human and shape-shifter characters.
'My Lady Jane' starred Emily Bader as the titular character, alongside a talented cast including Edward Bluemel, Rob Brydon, Dominic Cooper, and Jim Broadbent. The show was created by Gemma Burgess and Meredith Glynn, who also served as co-showrunners.
The news of the cancellation has sparked disappointment among fans, who took to social media to express their dismay and plead for the show's revival. However, as of now, there are no plans for 'My Lady Jane' to return for a second season.
This decision by Prime Video underscores the challenges faced by streaming platforms in today's competitive landscape. Even with critical acclaim and a dedicated fanbase, a show's success ultimately hinges on its ability to attract a substantial viewership. Unfortunately for 'My Lady Jane', it seems its reign was simply too short to leave a lasting mark.
