‘the get down’ is cancelled by netflix after only one season

In an interview with Vulture earlier this Spring, Luhrmann was emphatic that Sony and Netflix were going forward with Season 2, but after yesterday’s announcement, Luhrmann insinuated that his multiple commitments were part of the problem: “This exclusivity has understandably become a sticking point for Netflix and Sony, who have been tremendous partners and supporters of the show. It kills me that I can’t split myself into two and make myself available to both productions… But the simple truth is, I make movies.”
