Fans who are expecting "Limitless" season 2 might be in for a series of bad news. After weeks of negotiations for an appearance in "Limitless" season 2 did not succeed, it looks like Lady Gaga will no longer be appearing in the science fiction show.
It can be remembered that "Limitless" season 2 was cancelled by CBS earlier this year. According to The Hollywood Reporter, showrunner Craig Sweeny was not able to successfully convince executives of Netflix or Amazon Studios to give the show a shot. However, hope for "Limitless" season 2 was renewed earlier this year when it was rumored that Lady Gaga is in talks for a multiple episode arc, improving the chances of the show being renewed in another platform.
However, after the New York Times confirmed that Lady Gaga will be the headlining performer of the Super Bowl Halftime Show, Gaga is said to have demanded for a raise for an appearance. It has been reported that the predicted start of filming for "Limitless" season 2 will interfere with her own rehearsals for her Super Bowl performance.
Because of this, "Limitless" season 2 producers are scrambling to get another A-list star on board the show. This is because the price that Gaga's camp asked for is so big for a struggling production like "Limitless" season 2.
The producers and writers of "Limitless" season 2 are still trying to shop the series to streaming services and cable networks. GameNGuide will be covering more on the production and the behind the scenes drama in reinstating "Limitless" season 2 in the coming weeks.
Should Lady Gaga continue with her appearance in "Limitless" season 2? Will this news affect Lady Gaga's working relationship with "A Star Is Born" co-star, director and producer Bradley Cooper?
