Netflix has cancelled the Idris Elba-led comedy series “Turn Up Charlie” after just one season.
Elba starred as Charlie, a struggling DJ and eternal bachelor given a final chance at success when he reluctantly becomes a male nanny to his famous best friend’s problem-child Gabby (Frankie Hervey).
The series was co-created by Elba and Gary Reich who both serve as executive producers along with Tristram Shapeero, Martin Joyce, and Ana Garanito.
Netflix said in a statement: “Turn Up Charlie will not return for a second season. We’re especially grateful to star and executive producer Idris Elba, who turned his passion for DJing into a witty, heart-warming comedy series. We’re also thankful to executive producers Gary Reich and Tristram Shapeero and co-executive producers Martin Joyce and Ana Garanito, along with the dedicated cast and crew, for bringing this story to life on Netflix. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Idris on future projects.”
Piper Perabo, J.J. Feild, Angela Griffin, Guz Khan, Jocelyn Jee Esein, Jade Anouka, Cameron King, and Dustin Demri-Burns co-starred.
