"Limitless" Season 2 may no longer be back in television after all. It looks like negotiations for Lady Gaga to appear in "Limitless" season 2 have not been successful, putting into question the show's future.
It can be recalled that production for "Limitless" Season 2 was suspended by CBS earlier this year. Apart from that, according to The Hollywood Reporter, producer and showrunner Craig Sweeny failed to successfully pitch "Limitless" season 2 to executives of Netflix or Amazon Studios so they will buy the show. However, hope for "Limitless" season 2 came back after it was rumored that Lady Gaga might appear for a few episodes as guest actress, improving the chances of the show being bought for another channel.
However, after the New York Times confirmed that Lady Gaga will be the leader performer in the Super Bowl next year, Gaga will be too busy to appear in "Limitless" Season 2. It has been rumored that the estimated start of shoots for "Limitless" Season 2 will interfere with her 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. So far, no actor or actress has committed to appearing yet so cancellation may be inevitable.
The producers and writers of "Limitless" Season 2 are still trying to shop the series to streaming services and cable networks. Should there be any more development and news on "Limitless" season 2, GameNGuide will be posting more about in the next few weeks.
Should Lady Gaga still appear in "Limitless" Season 2? Will this new development result in Lady Gaga dropping out of "A Star Is Born" to avoid co-star, director and producer Bradley Cooper? Fire away in the GameNGuide comments. In the meantime, you can view the teaser trailer for the first season of "Limitless" in the video.
