Along with the recent and definitive rebranding in Spain, the formerly known as HBO Max (now Max) is in full restructuring now that everyone agrees that the golden age of streaming has come to an end. This leads, in the first instance, to the cancellation of multiple series to space out its catalog: this has been the fate of Our flag means death, damn rap either The girls on the bus. And finally, as revealed Hollywood Reporteralso that of a series as praised as Tokyo Vice.
Tokyo Vice It premiered its first season in April 2022, with very positive reviews. Starring Ansel Elgortwas highly publicized especially due to the presence of Michael Mann as executive producer and director of the pilot, so that later the conversation revolved around the questionable sources that motivated the non-fiction book where everything was inspired: this had been written by Jake Edelstein about his experiences as an undercover police officer in Tokyo. Be that as it may, the first season left enough of a good taste in the mouth to be renewed for one more season.
And that’s how it’s going to stay. during the conference Produced By held in Los Angeles, the producers have confirmed that the second season of Tokyo Viceconcluded the past April 4, was actually the last one. It hasn’t exactly been a surprise, since this season finale was titled Endgame and it could serve as the outcome, in tune with the fact that Elgort had only signed for two seasons since, well, that would have been the original plan. As we read in a statement signed by J.T. Rogers and Alan Pouldirectors and showrunners: “For the last five years, Max has made sure we could tell our story. “They have supported us through thick and thin.”
“Not only did they give us these two seasons, but they said yes when we asked to end the first season with a series of cliffhangersand they said yes when we asked two extra episodes to be able to land the plane the way we had always imagined. “We are grateful not only to Max, but also to our partners at Fifth Season, who sold the series around the world and made it a global hit.”
