Doom Patrol and Titans actors react to the cancellation of their series as their current fourth season comes to close, according to ComicBook. This was a long time coming as fans suspected the cancellation of both shows since the restructuring of DC. Recently HBO Max revealed that the DC Universe app’s original programming will be gone. Cast members from both shows took to social media to share their emotions over the cancellation including not only thanking fans but also producers for the chance and opportunity to bring to life many fan-favorite heroes.
Joshua Orpin (Preacher) who played Conner Kent also known as Super boy in Titans shared on Instagram, ‘’When you’re an actor, you take what’s on offer. Characters come and go. It’s all part of the gig, and you’ve got bills to pay… But every once in a while, a role comes along that’s so enthralling, so fascinating, so alien, and yet human, that you’re compelled to give a little more of yourself. You’re driven to connect a little deeper, to access parts of yourself you may not have even known were there. You pour your heart and soul into the work, so much so that to say goodbye to such a character would be like severing a part of yourself. In these cases, saying goodbye is tough. This is one of those.’’

Joivan Wade (The First Purge) who played the role of Victor Stone also known as Cyborg in Doom Patrol shared on Instagram, ‘The last 4 Years of my life have been an absolute dream. The memories I will take with me from this will be unmeasured. The lessons, the skill, the insight, the friendships, and the story’s. It was literally my dream. Like I’m talking “ when I grow up, I wanna be a superhero” kinda dream. To which some believed was unattainable but I thank the little version of me for never giving up. But giving it all he has to manifest this beautiful role.’’
