Show Update
HBO Cancels Project Greenlight
Filmmaking documentary series Project Greenlight has been cancelled at HBO. From executive producers Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, the show focused on first-time filmmakers going through the process of directing a feature film and all the challenges that come along with it.
Project Greenlight aired a total of four seasons despite originally premiering back in 2001. Its first two seasons ran on HBO before the series was moved to Bravo in 2005 for Season 3. After a 10-year absence, the show was revived for a fourth season on HBO in 2015.
While the series won't be continuing on the cable network, Damon stated in an interview that other avenues will be explored to keep the show on the air.
