Maldita premiered its first (and only) season on July 17, 2020, nearly a year ago. Although the series was ranked number one in Netflix's Top 10 section,it doesn't seem to attract enough attention for the company to be motivated to make a second season. So, Maldita adds to the long list of Netflix stories that we'll never see conclude.
This cancellation comes a month after Netflix canceled its superhero series Jupiter's Legacy, an adaptation of the comic book series of the same name by Mark Millar and Frank Quitely, after only one season:
"I'm really proud of what the team has accomplished with Jupiter's Legacy and the incredible work everyone did in that first season,"Mark Millar, head of Jupiter's Legacy, wrote on Twitter. "We've made the tough decision to let go of our incredible cast of Jupiter's Legacy."
