Gotham Knights cancelled ahead of season 1 finaleThe CW

TV series Gotham Knights has been cancelled after just one season.

The CW show debuted back in March, and follows Batman's adopted son Turner Hayes (Oscar Morgan) in the wake of Bruce Wayne's death as he is framed for his murder.

The DC show is due to air its season one finale in just two weeks (June 27), though it has now been confirmed that it will act as the series finale.

However, amid the cancellation, The CW has renewed its shows Superman & Lois and All American: Homecoming.

Alongside Morgan, Gotham Knights also starred Supernatural's Misha Collins as Harvey Dent and Days of Our Lives' Olivia Rose Keegan as the Joker's daughter Duela.

Raven's Home's Navia Robinson starred as Carrie Kelley, while Tyler DiChiara played Cullen Row, Grown-ish's Fallon Smythe portrayed Harper Row and All-American's Anna Lore starred as Stephanie Brown.

Earlier this year, DiChiara spoke to Digital Spy about the importance of playing a trans character in Cullen, explaining: "I hope people who don't understand what us trans men and women go through can understand a little bit more after watching Cullen's story.

"I wanted to introduce Cullen organically and not really have his trans identity be the main focus. The main focus is us running from the police and all that.

"It's the subtle hints, like, 'Don't use his dead name', and conversations around his chest surgery. Us trans men and women, we live among everyone, every day, and you wouldn't know it. You wouldn't bat an eye.

"So I wanted Cullen to be a part of this group and have that just be who he is. He's a human who just so happens to be transgender. These things are natural and I think the way that we do it in Gotham Knights is very, like you said, it just flows organically."

Gotham Knights airs on The CW in the US.
