Mark Millar’s Millarworld <\/strong>will continue to be explored in Netflix<\/strong>. Nevertheless, it won’t be with a second season of Jupiter’s Legacy<\/em><\/strong>. Instead, the streaming service will opt to develop a spinoff focused on the villans that exist within the same storytelling universe, the Supercrooks.<\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Wednesday, it was announced that the cast of Jupiter’s Legacy<\/em> were released from their contracts meaning that for the time being, they won’t be returning for additional episodes or seasons. Even thought fans of the show might be disappointed, Millar seemed optimistic that the characters could return to some extent in the future, even if not as part of an ongoing, serialized TV show. He does not view this as a cancellation, but an expansion of the brand and stories. Since Netflix owns the rights to the majority of Millarworld’s properties, they will seek to explore more stories within that “universe”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note: Supercrooks will appear first as an Anime series from Studio Bones later this year. @leinilyu<\/a> & I have created a lot of new stuff for this show and it's looking fantastic. It'll be previewed at the Annecy animation festival in France later this month!<\/p>— Millarworld (@mrmarkmillar) June 2, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote>
