Per a statement from the streaming service: 'While HBO Max will not be moving forward with a second season of Duster, we are so grateful to have had the chance to work with the amazingly talented co-creators J.J.

Abrams and LaToya Morgan delivered a thrilling, multi-dimensional crime drama in Duster, with textured characters that took the audience back to the 1970s in a new and innovative way. Those characters were brought to life by a wonderful team led by Josh, Rachel, and an extremely talented ensemble cast, along with an expert crew behind the scenes. We are incredibly proud of the show, and while we wish this journey could continue, we are thankful to our partners at HBO Max for the opportunity to tell Jim and Nina's story.'

Did Carrie and Aidan Break Up on 'And Just Like That'? Here's What Producers Say
[Major spoilers ahead for this week's episode of And Just Like That.] Okay, the And Just Like That... writers room must be reading the commentary online, because after bringing Aidan back last season only to put he and Carrie in a long distance relationship this season, they have decided to break them up after all. In this week's episode, Aidan becomes wary of Carrie's relationship with Duncan, and that starts a whole discussion about how he still doesn't trust her after all these years. It's a devastating argument to watch, and at the end of it, they decide to break up because Carrie admits that she's no longer "100 percent" in the relationship. Executive producer Elisa Zuritsky told TVLine that the decision to break them up was actually made pretty early in the crafting of the season. 'It wasn't a fiery debate in the room. I think it really came down to the way the previous season ended, with Aidan's family proving to be such an obstacle,' she said. She also said the team 'really did want to play it out in the real world and think of [Carrie and Aidan] as real people, and take them out of the fantasy Disney prince and princess happy ending that we were kind of playing with in season 2. It did feel like too much to ask of those two people, especially with their baggage.' Fellow executive producer Julie Rottenberg agreed, saying that it was not realistic for their relationship to move forward considering everything that's happened. 'I think we all knew their problems were systemic enough that they would not survive,' Rottenberg says. As devastating as this is, does this finally mean we'll get to see single Carrie dating around? A girl can dream!!

James Gunn Teases PEACEMAKER Season 2 as 'The Story of Superman and the DCU Continues' with New Posters — GeekTyrant
The wait for Peacemaker Season 2 is almost over, and James Gunn just gave fans a reason to get even more hyped. Ahead of the official trailer drop during tomorrow's San Diego Comic-Con panel, which will also hit online, Gunn and HBO Max shared twonew posters, and teased that this season plays a major role in shaping the future of the DC Universe. The first poster shows John Cena's Christopher Smith staring up at a mural of an alternate-universe version of himself, rocking a slick new helmet design. The second poster brings in the rest of the team, the ragtag crew famously known as the 11th Street Kids from Season 1. Alongside the reveal, Gunn wrote, 'If he can't find peace here, maybe he'll find it somewhere else. The story of Superman and the DCU continues with Peacemaker Season 2 on August 21.' That line, 'the story of Superman and the DCU continues', is interesting has sparked plenty of speculation. Could this mean David Corenswet will make his first appearance as the new Man of Steel? Gunn has hinted that a major cameo is coming later in the season, but whether that's Superman or another big DC character remains a mystery. What we do know is that Season 2 will feature appearances by Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl, and Maxwell Lord, further connecting Peacemaker to the larger DCU storyline Gunn is building. The newly released synopsis sheds more light on what Smith will be up against: 'In season 2, Peacemaker discovers an alternate world where life is everything he wishes it could be. But this discovery also forces him to face his traumatic past and take the future into his own hands.' This sets the stage for a fascinating twist, as Smith will infiltrate an alternate reality and encounter a version of himself who's held in much higher regard and it's going to make for some interesting and dynamic storyelling. Peacemaker Season 2 premieres August 21 on HBO Max.
