Netflix:Messiah has been cancelled after one season promoting islamophobia.
Tv thriller Messiah has been cancelled by Netflix after one season.
The series starred Michelle Monaghan as a CIA agent investigating an enigmatic figure known as AL-MASIH,who builds a legion of followers after claiming to be sent to Earth by a higher power.
In Islamic eschatology,AL-MASIH AD-DAJJAL
Is an evil figure comparable to the Antichrist.....
Whose name translated to-----false messiah,liar ----"the deciever"...In Arabic.
One of the series stars, Wil Traval, confirmed on Instagram that the series would not be returning to the streaming service.
"It is very sad day that"he wrote: I have just received news from Netflix that there will be no seasons of two Messiah."
After the first season debuted in January, there were complaints that the series contained subtextual anti-Islamic sentiment, with the Royal Film Commission of Jordan(where the parts of the series will be shot),even calling Netflix to ban the series from its country.
While the allegations of religious insensitivity may have played a part in the series’ cancellation, it has also been suggested that the ongoing coronavirus pandemic has made international filming schedules much harder to co-ordinate – which may be the key factor in the streaming service’s decision not to renew.
