Previously, reports emerged HBO would not greenlight 'The Idol' renewal
The Idol is the most panned show of 2023, but a glaring question on everyone's lips is: will HBO go for the second season?
The series star Da'Vine Joy Randolph believed yes!
Speaking to Variety, the 37-year-old said, "I think that everyone's intention is to have a second season. This was never intended to be a limited series," adding, "Nothing is official, but HBO is quite happy."
Previously, the show has lately been getting bad press, but that doesn't deter HBO from putting a lid on the show despite reports on the contrary.
Responding to the Page Six report that claimed the show would
not return for season 2, "It is being misreported that a decision on a
second season of 'The Idol' has been determined," adding, "It has not, and
we look forward to sharing the next episode with you Sunday night," the
official account of the streamer tweeted.
The clarifications come
hours after the publication report cited two unnamed insiders close to the
production.
One tipster tattled that The Weeknd was not planning a second
season of the series and that the series was from the start "intended to be
a limited series."
While the other bird chirped to the outlet
that "The door is definitely still open," and HBO was still waiting for a
decision to be made on the show.
