Every breakup has two sides, and showrunner Misha Green is sharing hers after HBO announced that Lovecraft Country will not be returning for a Season 2. The map — which you can see below — hints that Season 2 “begins in a new world, and that new world is a country that sits where The United States used to sit.”
“We will not be moving forward with a second season of Lovecraft Country,” HBO said in a statement.
Both the Lovecraft Country drama and book drew heavily on the works of sci-fi/horror writer H.P. Lovecraft, of whom Atticus is a fan — despite the author’s well-documented racism.
“We are grateful for the dedication and artistry of the gifted cast and crew, and to Misha Green, who crafted this groundbreaking series.
