Axed: Three Pines

Canadian crime drama Three Pines starring Alfred Molina has been axed after a single season by Prime Video.

A Prime Video spokesman said, “We are proud of the work done on the series and the opportunity to work with great partners.”

Season 1 showrunner Emilia di Giorlamo, who had already departed, said on Instagram, “Thank you for all the overwhelming messages about Three Pines. I know there’s a lot of disappointment that the show won’t be returning and I’m sad for the wonderful cast, crew and fans.

“I was not involved in the conversations and negotiations around renewal but I have been told Left Bank, Sony & Prime Video all wanted to bring the show back but were unable to reach a mutually beneficial agreement.”

Star Elle-Máijá Tailfeathers also wrote on Instagram, “It has been difficult to process the news that there will be no second season of #ThreePines. Thank you to everyone who watched and supported the show. It meant the world to me knowing that this show resonated with such a massive global audience. As an Indigenous actor, I never thought I’d have the opportunity to be the leading woman on a #1 show like this. It was huge. Our stories matter and this show demonstrated that audiences, regardless of background, are hungry for Indigenous content.”
