This summer, Netflix UK released a big show, KAOS, which is a modern take on Greek mythology, with Jeff Goldblum leading the cast. Fans were wondering if there would be a second season, but sadly, the show has been canceled after just one season. This news came from an Instagram post by one of the stars, which was later deleted.
Netflix has been clever recently with naming first seasons, not including season numbers, but KAOS was definitely meant to have more than one season. If you’ve watched episode 8, you probably noticed how it was setting up for future seasons. However, the show has ended.
Officially, KAOS has been canceled.
As of October 7th, it’s confirmed that Netflix won’t continue the show. The news came from one of the stars, Aurora Perrineau, who shared it on Instagram, but the post has since been deleted.
“Well, this one really hurts.
It’s hard to explain how I’m feeling, but I’ll give it a try.
When I started auditioning for this show, I knew it was special. Charlie Covell’s scripts connected with me in a way most things didn’t. I felt like I knew all of these characters, and I loved every part of them—their flaws and everything.
For one of the first times in my life, I’m really proud. I’m proud of everyone’s hard work and dedication to the project. They gave it their all. But I’m also proud of myself, which is something I’ve struggled with.
When I got cast, I was shocked that someone actually saw me. As a minority and a survivor of sexual assault, I couldn’t believe someone thought I could be one of the lead characters. I had my own storyline, my own goals, and was seen as desirable, even having two love interests. I was worthy of that? This whole experience really changed how I see myself.”
The show’s cancellation wasn’t officially announced, but when a fan asked the actress if the show had ended, she replied, “Sadly, yes.” (Thanks to kitsch-zip for the info.)
The creator of KAOS, Charlie Covell, mentioned that she would love to do more seasons in the future. In an interview with Cosmopolitan, she said, “Anything is possible,” and shared that her original plan was to have three seasons. She has many ideas for where the show could go.
Covell also said that even if the show doesn’t get renewed, season one can still be enjoyed on its own. She explained that she didn’t want the season to end with a big cliffhanger and hopes viewers find it satisfying. However, she would love to work with the same actors and team again, calling the experience a dream come true.
why was KAOS canceled?
When it comes to renewing a show, viewership is the most important factor. No amount of marketing can make people start watching or keep them watching until the end. That’s how we’ve been able to predict some major cancelations before, and based on early numbers, things aren’t looking great for KAOS.
Looking at Netflix’s global weekly top 10, KAOS was in the top 10 for the first four weeks it was eligible, with 98.9 million hours watched, which equals about 14.9 million views.
In week four, Netflix changed KAOS from being called KAOS: Season 1 to KAOS: N/A, which suggests it’s now considered a limited series.
Comparing its performance in week three with other Netflix shows that debuted in 2024, KAOS is falling behind some of the biggest-budget shows in the charts by week three.
Let’s compare how KAOS performed week-to-week with some shows that have been renewed, like Supacell, The Gentlemen, and My Life with the Walter Boys, and others that got canceled, like Dead Boy Detectives and Obliterated. So far, KAOS is falling behind compared to these shows.
In the final episode of season 1 of KAOS, things are shifting against Zeus, who seems to be losing his power. His vision of himself bleeding comes true, and a water feature symbolizing his strength collapses.
Here’s a quick recap of where the key characters are: Prometheus is no longer under Zeus’s control and now sits on the throne in Olympus. Riddy, who spent much of the season in the Underworld, has returned to Earth and met Cassandra, who tells her she’s now a prophet and needs to go to Ari to “set the living free.”
Meanwhile, in the Underworld, Caeneus is given the power to renew souls, surprising Hades. He’s also tasked with setting the dead free.
Ari, having fulfilled her father’s prophecy, is now in charge of Krete. She tells her mother she won’t rule for the Gods. Instead, she strikes a deal with the Trojans to rebuild Troy and destroy Olympus. The season wraps up with Dionysus outside the palace, and Hera making a call to gather troops and prepare for battle.
What happens next is only known by Atropos, Lachesis, and Clotho. But it looks like there will be more efforts against Zeus, as Olympus is becoming more unstable. Since Zeus is weakened, Hades will likely lose control of the Underworld, which he warned about earlier in the season. If that happens, everything could fall apart.
A Proud Father’s Joy: Hazel Moder at Cannes Film Festival
A Lovely and Encourageing Evening
Hazel Moder, Julia Roberts and Danny Moder’s talented daughter, made an unusual appearance at the renowned Cannes Film Festival in July. Even though the family often keeps their children out of the spotlight, Hazel attended the function to support her father’s choreography for the movie “Flag Day,” starring Sean Penn. And trust me when I say that she was the star of the show thanks to her amazing attractiveness.
Obtaining the Best Genetic Information
That Hazel drew notice at the festival makes sense. With her gorgeous blonde hair, striking blue eyes, and laid-back personality, she surely inherited some of her parents’ best traits. While some believe she has her mother’s nose, others notice a strong resemblance between her and her gorgeous father. Either way, she was obviously the center of attention.
A Chic Display of Grace Hazel’s choice of attire further accentuated her attractive appearance. She wore a beautiful yellow lace gown that was elegantly paired with black Mary Jane pumps. The hairstyle she wore emphasized her youthful beauty. The modest makeup brought out her natural features, giving her an older-than-actual air of refinement. She truly radiated grace and elegance; she was a young woman in every sense of the word.
A Satisfied Father’s Remark
Danny Moder could not control his pride as he spent the entire evening by Hazel’s side. The father-daughter duo was so loving and devoted that the atmosphere was one of excitement and happiness. It was amazing to witness their friendship and the joy they shared.
Building Grounding and Humility
In a culture when being famous often means losing one’s privacy, Julia Roberts and Danny Moder have made a conscious effort to keep their children out of the spotlight. Despite having a huge career and wealth, Roberts stays grounded and modest. This perspective includes her children as well.
Roberts admitted in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar that her children first struggled to comprehend her fame. As parents, Roberts and Moder acknowledge that they have no idea what it’s like to grow up in today’s world. When their children ask questions, Roberts honestly admits that she doesn’t know enough about their generation, but she makes a commitment to research it and discover the answers. Seeing parents who are willing to learn with their children and humble in their guidance is heartening.
A Ordinary Life Outside of Hollywood’s Glamour and Glamor
Their reasonable and grounded parents keep Hazel and her siblings out of the spotlight. Ensuring their well-being and providing them with an opportunity to lead normal lives away from the glitz and glitter of Hollywood are top priorities for Roberts and Moder. Hazel and her siblings get to experience the beauty and simplicity of an ordinary childhood instead of being thrust into the fast-paced and usually superficial world of the entertainment industry.
The fact that Julia Roberts and Danny Moder prioritize their children’s happiness and health above all else in a culture that sometimes places an excessive importance on celebrity and wealth is heartening. By keeping their children out of the spotlight, they are teaching their children the value of having humble and grounded lives. Furthermore, it’s evident from what we saw of Hazel Moder at the Cannes Film Festival that she is an exceptional young woman ready to take on the world with style and grace thanks to her parents’ love and care.
