Netflix has confirmed the third season of Bloodline will be its last.

Netflix has ramped up its slate of drama originals, which have been a key subs driver for the US streaming service.

With the SVOD service at at a relatively early stage in its development – compared to the cable nets – series cancellations are unusual.

The decision is a blow to Sony, which produces the show.

Netflix’s VP of original content, Cindy Holland confirmed the cancellation, saying it will not go beyond the third season, which is lated to launch worldwide next May.

“[Executive producers] Todd A. Kessler, Daniel Zelman, and Glenn Kessler (KZK) are thoughtful and visionary storytellers, who lead a prestigious cast, that includes Kyle Chandler and Ben Mendelsohn, who have both garnered two Emmy nominations for their roles on the series,” Holland said.

“Together, with our collaborative partners at Sony Pictures Television they created a seductive show that Netflix viewers worldwide love and continue to discover.”
