Netflix‘s music competition series, "Building the Band" has been canceled after just one season.
The show was best known for filming with Liam Payne shortly before his untimely death.
While Netflix declined to comment, but a source confirmed the cancellation.
Produced by Remarkable Entertainment, "Building the Band" brought together 50 singers to compete for a chance to form their own band without seeing each other.
Former One Direction singer Payne served as a mentor alongside Pussycat Dolls’ Nicole Scherzinger and Kelly Rowland, who was part of Destiny’s Child, while Backstreet Boys’ AJ McLean was on hosting duties.
The project culminated in three live shows that were filmed in late August 2024 in front of an audience in Manchester.
Two months later, Payne died after falling from a hotel balcony in Argentina.
The Netflix show was dedicated to his memory. After premiering last July, Building the Band‘s finalists, 3quency, SZN4, Soulidified, and Midnight Til Morning, have all released original music and toured.
