As far as Westworld is concerned, the series has been renewed, but the release date has not been set.
There was a long break between the first and second seasons, so there’s no telling when production would ramp back up.
Dead to Me is set to unfold over the course of ten half-hour episodes, which is the equivalent of five episodes of a drama series.
When you look at it that way, even if James Marsden has signed on to star in all ten episodes, it is not as big of a time commitment as it may seem at first.
