Well, this will go down as one of the most shocking cancellations ever.
Hulu has canceled the Elle Fanning and Nicholas Hoult comedy The Great after three seasons.
The sad news was first reported by Deadline.
Created, written, and executive produced by Tony McNamara, The Great followed Catherine The Great's story as "an idealistic, romantic young girl, who arrives in Russia for an arranged marriage to the mercurial Emperor Peter," according to the official description.
"Hoping for love and sunshine, she finds instead a dangerous, depraved, backward world that she resolves to change."
"All she has to do is kill her husband, beat the church, baffle the military and get the court onside."
News of the cancellation comes over three months on from the premiere of The Great Season 3, which unspooled all episodes on May 12.

Mark Zuckerberg has quite the appetite!
The Facebook founder took to Threads — his latest social media platform — where he replied to a post from McDonald’s asking if their followers wanted anything from the famous fast-food chain.
“20 nuggets, a quarter pounder, large fries, Oreo McFlurry, apple pie, and maybe some side cheeseburgers for later?” Zuckerberg replied, giving followers a look at his huge Mickey D’s order.
Mma fighter, Mike Davis jokingly chastised Zuckerberg’s order, reminding the tech CEO that he’s currently in training for his reported fight with Elon Musk.
“You’re in camp! No Mcdonalds ,” Davis wrote.
“Not cutting weight so I need ~4000 calories a day to offset all the activity,” Zuckerberg replied, revealing his massive 4,000 calorie-a-day diet. “And it’s so delicious…”
Zuckerberg’s McDonald’s confession comes just weeks after he showed off his fit physique.

Elon Musk may have to watch his back if Mark Zuckerberg decides to take his cage match challenge seriously.
The Facebook founder recently showed off his abs on Instagram as he stood next to UFC fighters Israel Adesanya and Alex Volkanovski. The trio posed shirtless in Zuckerberg’s Lake Tahoe home in California.
Adesanya, who posted the pictures, suggested that there was nothing fake about Zuckerberg as he wrote in the caption, “No fugazi with Mark This is Serious Business”
In response to Zuckerberg’s toned abs, Instagram users expressed their detached concerns for the Tesla founder.
“Guess Elon gonna have to hide in Mars now,” wrote one user.
“Zuck’s dedication to winning the fight against Elon is unprecedented,” said another.
“Now Musk want[s] to know your location,” a third person commented, referring to Zuckerberg’s reply to Musk’s challenge last month.

Prime Hydration‘s energy drink line is a key part of a retail empire that delivered a reported $250 million in sales in its first year. Those gaudy numbers are a triumph for Prime co-founders Logan Paul and Ksi, but the beverage brand’s runaway success is also drawing scrutiny from U.S. authorities. In a recent address, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-ny) called on the Food and Drug Administration (Fda) to investigate Prime energy drinks and their potential effects on minors.
Schumer discussed Prime during a press conference in New York on July 9. The long-serving Senator claimed that each 12-ounce can of Prime Energy contains “an eye-popping level of caffeine.” He wrote a letter to the Fda in hopes of initiating a probe at the federal agency.
As listed on the Prime website, the brand’s energy drinks contain 200 milligrams of caffeine per can. That’s equivalent to about...

“Reservation Dogs” actress Devery Jacobs is opening up about immense pressure that comes with being cast in a Marvel project, specifically regarding her role in the forthcoming Disney+ show “Echo”.
During a comedy actress roundtable with The Hollywood Reporter, the Indigenous Canadian actress shed light on the assumed expectations surrounding physical appearance when being part of a comic book franchise. She acknowledged the industry’s inclination for a chiseled body type and the persistent notion that one needs to be thin or fit to be involved in a Marvel project. After being cast in “Echo”, she admits she had to contend with those pressures as well.

“My God, we are a breath of fresh, fabulous air,” declared Abbott Elementary’s Sheryl Lee Ralph as she looked around the table at Jenna Ortega (Wednesday), Elle Fanning (The Great), Ayo Edebiri (The Bear), Natasha Lyonne (Poker Face) and Devery Jacobs (Reservation Dogs) — all gathered on a late April morning for THR’s annual Comedy Actress Emmy Roundtable. Over the course of an hour, their conversation ranged from fighting stereotypes and finding agency to dismissing gross notes and having a little fun.
When fans approach you, what do they typically recognize you from and what do they say?
Sheryl Lee Ralph For me, it’s all about Abbott Elementary, and oh my God, it’s just such an outpouring of love. It’s the ones who talk to me in the bathroom, now that’s a problem. In the toilet at the airport, it’s like, “Oh my goodness!

Goodbye HBO Max, hello Max. Warner Bros. Discovery announced several weeks back that the company was dropping the "HBO" from the name of its flagship streaming service, and that day has come. What does that mean for you, the subscriber? For one, it means a lot more movies and TV shows will be streaming in 4K, and the list of initial titles is pretty impressive. There are, however, a few caveats.
Those who wish to watch movies like "2001: A Space Odyssey" and "Argo" in Ultra HD will need to be subscribed to the new tier offered by Max called "Ultimate Ad-Free." This goes for $19.99 per month and includes access to the service's library of 4K movies and TV shows. There is also a plan with ads for $9.99 per month and a regular ad-free plan for $15.99 per month. Sudheer Sirivara, Global Technology Platform for Warner Bros. Discovery, had this to...

The third season of Hulu's historical dark comedy "The Great" features a shocking plot twist - though, perhaps not so shocking to anyone familiar with the real history on which the show is based. After dodging numerous near-deadly feats and assassination attempts, Peter III finally meets his maker in a sudden and shocking way. In real life, Peter III's death was just as sudden, but it happened very differently.
How Does Peter III of Russia Die on "The Great"?
As we've expected, the third season of "The Great" features Peter and Catherine alternating between plotting against each other and expressing their tangled, twisted love for each other. Peter spends the first half of the season undermining Catherine at every turn and chafing at her being in charge. The final straw comes when he can't resist the idea of invading Sweden.

“You never quite know what’s ahead,” admits “The Great” costume designer Sharon Long in our recent webchat. Starting a new season means the wardrobe department only has two scripts and a brief synopsis. Long adds, “There was somebody who I thought was going to die and they didn’t die. So, there’s a little bit of fast thinking and trying to sort out things. The actors are great. There’s a lot of collaboration and conversations that happen in fittings, so I don’t get too carried away with something.” Watch our exclusive video interview above.
“The Great” is billed as “an occasional true story” about the rise of Catherine the Great (Elle Fanning) in Russia during the 18th century. The comedy series is created by Tony McNamara, the Oscar-nominated writer of “The Favorite.” The third season of the series premieres May 12 on Hulu. Long explains, “There are...

Nicholas Hoult has revealed that he had to pull out of a role in Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One after Tom Cruise approached him.
The seventh film in the action franchise, which will be released in July, almost featured Hoult, 33, as its primary villain.
In January 2020, news of Hoult’s casting broke, with writer and director Christopher McQuarrie posting a (now-deleted) photo of the actor to Instagram, with the caption “Say, @nicholashoult, care to raise a little hell?”
Hoult then responded: “Love to. Though why stop at a little?”
But just months later, Bad Boys actor Esai Morales, 60, replaced Hoult in the role.
Speaking in a new interview with The Guardian, Hoult said he had three quite big career disappointments in a row. “I screen-tested for Batman and didn’t get it. Screen-tested for Top Gun, didn’t get it.

Nicholas Hoult had some interesting insight to share about the evolution of Emperor Peter III, his character on Hulu’s “The Great.” Hoult shared his thoughts with Variety senior culture and events editor Marc Malkin during Variety On the Carpet presented by Directv.
“He’s now a doting father, which is the transition for most sex slaves, I think,” Hoult said during the red carpet interview. “It’s an examination of Catherine and his relationship, and Elle [Fanning] is such a wonderful actress, we have a lot of fun.”
Hoult referred to the long-spanning relationship between the show’s two main characters, which has evolved drastically over the course of the show’s two-season run. Both Hoult and Fanning are nominated for their performances at Monday’s Primetime Emmy Awards, for lead actor and actress in a comedy series, respectively.

Now, at 24, she knows her way around a set but still has the energy and fervor to take on new challenges, such as producing the shows she stars in, something she began doing in 2020 with The Great, followed by this year’s The Girl from Plainville, which is based on true events.
