Julia Cancelled at Max After 2 Seasons

Oh dear, this is one dish that even Julia Child can’t salvage: Max has cancelled the biopic series Julia after two seasons, TVLine has confirmed.

“We are so honored to have partnered with Chris Keyser, Daniel Goldfarb and their masterful creative team and dynamic cast, led by Sarah Lancashire, as they cooked up Julia,” a Max spokesperson said in a statement. “Thanks to their beautiful work over two seasons of this heartful, sensual, and inspiring show, we can forever celebrate the incredible legacy of Julia Child.”

Lancashire starred as legendary chef Julia Child, who became a household name with her TV cooking series The French Chef, bringing gourmet cuisine to the masses. Frasier alum David Hyde Pierce co-starred as Julia’s husband Paul, with a supporting cast that included Bebe Neuwirth, Brittany Bradford, Fran Kranz, Fiona Glascott, and Robert Joy.

Julia debuted in March 2022 with an eight-episode freshman season, then returned for Season 2 in November with eight more episodes. The Dec. 21 season finale will now serve as a series finale as well. Max also cancelled the Taika Waititi pirate comedy Our Flag Means Death earlier this week.
