With the start of the 2016-2017 television season in the United States, fans are losing hope that they will ever see a "Limitless" season 2. The show stars Jake McDorman as a person who discovers the power of a drug to expand mental capacity.
It can be remembered that CBS refused to order "Limitless" season 2 into development earlier in May, according to The Hollywood Reporter. This was despite the fact that the first season of "Limitless" had acceptable ratings for a first year of any season. This was also the fate of fellow CBS show "Supergirl," which was transferred to the CW. In fact, lower rating shows from other networks have been renewed.
Hopes for the renewal of "Limitless" season 2 was regenerated earlier this month when it was reported that Bradley Cooper, who served as an executive producer and a recurring cast member, was trying to save the show from cancellation, China Christian Daily News reported. However, it looks like Cooper has already lost motivation as too many networks have already passed over "Limitless" season 2.
It turns out instead of exerting more effort on "Limitless" season 2, Cooper will be spending more time on pre-production for the remake of "A Star Is Born." The film, which he will direct and star in, will be the first starring vehicle for Lady Gaga. The movie will be the first time Cooper will go behind the camera.
With producers and writers are stilll trying to negotiate with networks and streaming services to produce "Limitless" season 2, the release date for "Limitless" season 2 has not been announced yet. GameNGuide will be covering more on the behind the scenes deals regarding "Limitless" season 2 in the coming weeks.
