American Born Chinese Cancelled After 1 Season at Disney+
Disney+ will not be continuing the story of American Born Chinese, with the streamer cancelling its adaptation of the hit graphic novel after one season, TVLine has confirmed. The news will come as a blow to fans considering the Season 1 finale ended on a whopper of a cliffhanger.
The series’ one-and-done season — all eight episodes of which dropped last May — followed a mythological god (played by Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh) whose life becomes entangled with an average American teenager (played by Ben Wang). The ensemble also included Yeoh’s Everything Everywhere All At Once castmates, fellow Oscar winner Ke Huy Quan and Stephanie Hsu.
