Damon Lindelof is owning up to his past failures as the showrunner and co-creator the mega popular ABC series, Lost.
The series, which ended in 2010, has long been criticized by crew and cast members over the racist and toxic environment that stemmed from the writers room.
An excerpt from Maureen Ryan‘s upcoming book “Burn It Down: Power, Complicity, and a Call for Change in Hollywood,” was released on Vanity Fair, and its there that Damon reflects on the accusations, admitting he failed as a leader on the show.
Watchmen was one of the best-reviewed new shows of 2019, but fans hoping to get more episodes will be disappointed to find out that a second season will almost definitely not happen.
Damon Lindelof, the creator of the series, has expressed that he’s not interested in returning for a second season and HBO is not interested in making more seasons without him.
“It’s really in Damon’s thinking about what he wants to do. If there’s an idea that excited him about another season, another installment, maybe like a Fargo, True Detective (anthology) take on it, or if he wants to do something different altogether. We’re very proud of Watchmen, but what I’m most interested in what Damon wants to do,” HBO programming chief Casey Bloys told USA Today.
Damon has said he gave his blessing to HBO to pursue future seasons, but it sounds like that won’t happen without him.
Bloys added, “It would be hard to imagine doing it without Damon involved in some way.”

Check out the new teaser trailer for the upcoming action-thriller film The Hunt!
Universal Pictures dropped the visual on Friday (July 12) – and it’s kind of terrifying.
Here’s the synopsis: “Twelve strangers wake up in a clearing. They don’t know where they are, or how they got there. They don’t know they’ve been chosen… for a very specific purpose … The Hunt.”
It continues, “In the shadow of a dark internet conspiracy theory, a group of globalist elites gathers for the very first time at a remote Manor House to hunt humans for sport. But the elites’ master plan is about to be derailed because one of the hunted, Crystal (GLOW‘s Betty Gilpin), knows The Hunters’ game better than they do. She turns the tables on the killers, picking them off, one by one, as she makes her way toward the mysterious woman (two-time Oscar winner Hilary Swank) at the center of it all.”
The mysterious social thriller hails from Jason Blum, the producer of Get Out and The Purge series, and Damon Lindelof, co-creator of the TV series The Leftovers and Lost.
The Hunt hits theaters on September 27. Watch the teaser trailer now!
