Cassius and Clay canned before it even premieres

 

FX Networks has decided to cancel the 10-episode order for new series Cassius and Clay that was supposed to air alongside Archer’s Seventh Season both which were due to kick off rumored in March for FXX. Welp, that’s not happening now, even while there was a chance of a redevelopment.

In the vein of Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid, Cassius and Clay starred Kaitlin Olson as Cassius and Lake Bell as Clay, bandits looking to survive in a futuristic, post-apocalyptic American South. The series was created by Reed and Megan Ganz who executive produced with Reed’s Floyd County Productions and Archer exec producer Matt Thompson for FX Productions. The voice cast also included Susan Sarandon, JB Smoove, Kevin Michael Richardson, Jeffrey Tambor, Stephen Root, Katy Mixon and Robert Patrick.

So, will Archer still air its seventh season on FXX? We’ll try and find out.
