During a 2026 HBO Max programming slate presentation hosted by Casey Bloys at New York's Hudson Yards, the HBO and HBO Max chairman and CEO said the network actually heard the original pitch for Rian Johnson's series that was just canceled at Peacock. "We heard the original take," he told The Hollywood Reporter during the Thursday presser, "and when I heard that Peacock wasn't moving forward, we were curious. So we've had conversations, but I don't know which way it'll go. But I think Rian is a fantastic filmmaker, and I love the idea of Peter Dinklage, but I have nothing to report on that." Last week, Peacock surprise canceled the Natasha Lyonne-starring Poker Face after two seasons, but series creator Johnson had said he was looking to take the show to another outlet with Game of Thrones and HBO alum Dinklage as the new lead actor, replacing Lyonne. More to come.
