The Orville in limbo?
Spoilers Willow sequel series on Disney+
- Thread starter Booji
- Start date
No, not that, if only because The Orville has been in limbo for a number of reasons since season two.
Jonathan Kasdan has clarified that Willow has not actually been cancelled despite the clickbait headlines:

They just don't have filming scheduled yet for season 2, because of the general slowdown in streaming production, so they've released the cast to work on other projects in the meantime.

So basically, not cancelled, but not exactly picked up either, so in the mean time, cast can go make money so that they can make a living instead of sitting with there proverbial thumb up there arse.
Beat me to it. I was just about to post his tweet.
Good to know and I definitely feel more reassured that we might get more Willow eventually. I like that he cited shows like Atlanta having long wait periods between seasons. Steaming is making that situation more of a precedence. Of course, British television has been like this for decades so I'm not too bothered by this development as long as there is a strong chance for seasons two and three.

Sad news, Disney+ is going to remove the Willow series from its roster on May 26th (forcing me to marathon binge watch five episodes of it this weekend).
Why would they do that? Are they going to release it on physical media then?
They're removing programming from their services purely in order to deprive the writers of residual payments as punishment for the strike. Which is a purely petulant move, since the streamers were only paying pennies in residuals anyway, which is one of the things the writers are striking to change.
Because if it's not there they don't have to pay any residuals on it.
Seriously though, did people really buy the "We could be back in a few years" line they were selling?
I would just like to know if it's going to be sold/licensed to somewhere else or is this a DISNEY VAULT type situation
All things being equal, why not?
Worse expensive shows have gotten more. And this was before all the news broke about how streaming isn't all that the studios thought that it might be.
Something tells me Disney Vault, but that's pure speculation on my part.
Yes and why not?
Or did you not bother to read this thread where it was all discussed as it happened?
Interesting response from the showrunner.

A refreshingly honest and reasonable response. I imagine he knows it's completely out of his hands and doesn't want to run the risk of damaging any chances of reviving the show later on by badmouthing the bosses.
Plus, I imagine he's seen the strong reaction to Willow's removal and decided to let that spoke louder than anything he could.

I hope it's at least put on something like Vudu. I'd buy it.
