The OA Won't Get a Movie

What a crazy couple of weeks it's been for The OA and its fandom. After the show got canceled by Netflix on August 5, fans launched an all-out campaign to get it back. There was hope that maybe the outcry could lead to a new season or even a movie to tie up the plot of the show. Now, it looks as though at least one of those things is off the table. Per Variety, Netflix and creators Brit Marling and Zal Batmanglij had discussed a movie but since the plan for the show's narrative was for a five-season arc, a two-hour movie wouldn't cut it. Variety also notes that since the series was produced by Netflix the chances of another network picking up the show are slim.
