Even though Prime Video greenlit A League of Their Own for a truncated second season, this has been reversed, as well as the streamer’s decision on another series.

A League of Their Own has been canceled, along with sci-fi series The Peripheral. Variety reports that Prime Video has not given a statement regarding the cancellation. However, the strikes are said to have put even more stress on an already stressful situation regarding A League of Their Own.

Fans of the series were already working with the news of a second season that would only be four episodes long. With the strikes, Variety reported that the second season would have probably not come out no sooner than 2025, several years after the first season in 2022.

Back in 2022, star Chanté Adams talked about working on the series, which sought to be much more intersectional than the 1992 film it’s based on.

“You think about being Black in this era, and the first thing you think about is racism and oppression,” Adams said to Aramide A. Tinubu. “I knew that if that was what we were going to focus on solely, I knew that wasn’t something I wanted to be a part of.”

“I was so happy to hear that we were also going to discuss and display Black joy and love,” she continued. “[Adams’ character] Max comes from a very affluent Black family who are business owners and very much in love. She has unconditional love and support from her best friend. That was exactly something I wanted to do because I don’t think we get to see that a lot when we think about Black life in this era and see it displayed on the screen. That makes our show and story, especially about Black life in this time period, very special.”
