Altered Carbon canceled on Netflix after two seasons

Deadline

The eight-episode Season 2, which had Anthony Mackie take over as the lead Takeshi Kovacs role from Joel Kinnaman, will be the last season for the Netflix cyberpunk sci-fi series. Season 2 was released on Feb. 27 followed by anime movie Altered Carbon: Resleeved on March 19. "I hear Netflix’s decision not to proceed with further seasons was made in April and is not COVID-related but stems from the streamer’s standard viewership vs. cost renewal review process," reports Deadline's Nellie Andreeva. Netflix’s sci-fi slate now includes Another Life, which has been renewed for another season, and the upcoming Away.
