'Pose' To End with Upcoming Third Season: "We've Told The Story We Wanted To Tell"+Announces Premiere Date

Fans of ‘Pose‘ were super excited that the upcoming third season was back up and running after being delayed due to the pandemic.

Now, fans might be heartbroken by fresh news that arrived on Friday–the show will officially end with its upcoming third season.

Steven Canals — co-creator of the groundbreaking FX series about a chosen family of New Yorkers navigating the queer ballroom scene of 1980s and 1990s Harlem — announced Friday the show (also created by Ryan Murphy) will end following its season 3 premiere on May 2.
“It was a very difficult decision for us to make, but this has been an incredible journey and we’ve told the story we wanted to tell the way that we wanted to tell it,” Canals said on Friday’s Good Morning America, referencing the show’s history-making run as the series with the largest-ever cast of transgender actors on a mainstream network. “I, along with my incredible collaborators, never intended on changing the television landscape, I simply wanted to tell an honest story about family, resilience, and love.”
Still, while Canals knows fans will be disappointed that the group’s stories will end on season 3, they promise: “This season will be filled with all of the laughter, love, and tears you’ve come to expect from the Evangelista family.”

Pose season 3 premieres May 2 on FX.
