Legion could run for anywhere between three to seven seasons, according to FX boss John Landgraf.
Speaking to Deadline, Landgraf outlined the upcoming X-Men spinoff’s survival odds, insisting that the show’s run wont be extended beyond its natural story:
“Even in success, Legion might end after three seasons because that might be all the story there is to tell,” Landgraf told the PGA crowd, revealing that the cabler decided to go with an eight-episode run over the more usual 10-episodes to let Hawley pace the series out and not try to pad it. “We are going to make Legionas much as Noah has a story, so that can be three seasons, five seasons or seven.”
He added:
“What we try to do at FX, is get to the end point of a great piece of film that I think would stand up against great filmmaking of any era.”
Stay tuned as we continue to monitor the status of Legion Season 2…
