Netflix cancels Idris Elba's Turn Up Charlie after one season

Deadline

The cancelation of the comedy starring Elba as a struggling DJ and eternal bachelor comes 13 months after its premiere in March 2019. Elba co-starred on Turn Up Charlie with Piper Perabo and co-created the eight-episode comedy with Gary Reich. "Turn Up Charlie will not return for a second season,” Netflix said in a statement. “We’re especially grateful to star and executive producer Idris Elba, who turned his passion for DJing into a witty, heart-warming comedy series. We’re also thankful to executive producers Gary Reich and Tristram Shapeero and co-executive producers Martin Joyce and Ana Garanito, along with the dedicated cast and crew, for bringing this story to life on Netflix. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Idris on future projects.”
