The CW has decided that after seven seasons DC’s Legends of Tomorrow will not continue. The series has been officially canceled. The news came shortly after we learned that Batwoman had been canceled after three seasons.
Fans of the series are sure to be bummed out by the news as the series ended on a cliffhanger where Booster Gold (Donald Faison) was introduced into the series. Faison was great casting for the character, and it would have been fun to see what they had planned for the character’s story arc had the series continued.
Showrunner Keto Shimizu shared the following statement on social media:
“Well, folks. It’s been an incredible run. However, the CW has let us know that there will be no season 8 of Legends of Tomorrow. We are heartbroken, but also immensely grateful for the amazing work our cast, crew, and writers have contributed to the little show that could. Thank you to our fans; your love and passion for our strange band of misfits has made every break, every script, every daily, every cut, and every mix worth all the hard work. We see you, we love you, and you’ll always have a place on the Waverider.”
Legends of Tomorrow did have a good run with seven seasons, it’s just a shame that the creative team wasn’t given the opportunity to wrap things up properly after the run that it had.
DC’s Legends of Tomorrow stars Caity Lotz as Sara Lance/White Canary, Nick Zano as Dr. Nate Heyood/Steel, Tala Ashe as Zari Tarazi, Jes Macallan as Ava Sharpe, Matt Ryan as Dr. Gwyn Davies, Adam Tsekhman as Gary Green, Olivia Swann as Astra Logue, Shayan Sobhian as Behrad Tarazi, Lisseth Chavez as Esperanza “Spooner” Cruz and Amy Pemberton as Gideon.
