Showtime Boss On Show’s Cancelation

The Television Critics Association held a press tour where the panel of Showtime revealed when fans could expect to see the Ray Donovan Movie. During the TCA press tour, Gary Levine was questioned about the cancelation of Ray Donovan back in 2020 and the process that led him to announce a new movie. Levine replied that it is very difficult to make a decision sometimes. He added that in the best cases, they plan for it, and then it led to a beautiful nice landing.

He tried to explain by taking the example of Homeland and Shameless. Levine said, “Homeland had a stunning finale in that respect as did Shameless, and sometimes it can’t be prepared, and events just make the decision a little more unexpected, and unhappily that was the case with Ray Donovan. I don’t believe it was closing it after seven seasons— although some people would prefer it to go on endlessly— I guess it was the abruptness of the cancellation.”
