The upcoming closure of U.S. cable network Pivot will not impact the second season of the international drama Fortitude. The show’s producers have confirmed that production and distribution plans remain on track, ensuring that the next season will move forward as scheduled.
Fortitude, known for its eerie atmosphere and psychological intrigue, has been a critical success since its debut. Set in a remote Arctic town, the series combines elements of mystery, science fiction, and crime drama, making it a standout among genre fans.
The announcement comes amid concerns about how Pivot’s shutdown could affect the future of the series. However, the show’s funding model, which includes international partnerships, allows it to continue independently of its original U.S. broadcaster.
Sky Atlantic, which airs the show in the UK, remains committed to the series and will proceed with the planned rollout of the second season. Viewers can expect new plot twists and further exploration of the dark forces that haunt the isolated town.
This development highlights the strength of global co-productions in maintaining creative projects, even when one partner exits. Fortitude remains a priority for its creators and broadcasters, ensuring fans won’t have to wait long for its chilling return.
