Showtime cancels On Becoming a God in Central in Central Florida, reversing Season 2 renewal

Deadline

The Kirsten Dunst-led dark comedy is the latest series to be canceled after being renewed due to the coronavirus. “Last year, Showtime renewed On Becoming A God In Central Florida but unfortunately, due to the pandemic, we were unable to move forward with production on the new season,” Showtime said in a statement to Deadline. “The pandemic has continued to challenge schedules across the board, and although we have made every effort to reunite the cast and crew for a second season, that has become untenable. It is with great regret that we are acknowledging On Becoming a God will not return.” On Becoming a God was originally developed for YouTube before landing on Showtime in August 2019.
