Truth Be Told is done at Apple TV+ after three seasons.
The drama series starring and executive produced by Octavia Spencer will not be returning for a fourth season on the streaming platform. Spencer announced this news on her Instagram, writing, “I wanted to share the news that after three seasons of seeking truth and justice, Poppy Scoville is going on a much-needed vacation.”
The actress went on to thank all of those involved in the show, expressing gratitude for going on “this incredible journey” with her.
“I want to thank my partners at #OritEntertainment, @HelloSunshine, Chernin Entertainment, @FifthSeason, and everyone at @Apple @AppleTV for being so supportive over the past three seasons,” Spencer added. “Nichelle Tramble, Maisha Closson, Mikkel Norgaard and our incredible cast and crew – thank you for your creative vision during this incredible journey. Poppy Scoville signing off.#TruthBeTold”
Apple's head of programming, Matt Cherniss, further confirmed the show's cancellation in a statement.
“It has been an honor and a privilege to collaborate with Octavia and Hello Sunshine on three thrilling seasons of ‘Truth Be Told,’ a series that quickly made its way into the hearts of audiences across the globe,” Cherniss said, according to The Hollywood Reporter. “This show has given us the opportunity to not only witness Octavia’s mesmerizing and nuanced portrayal of crime-solving podcaster Poppy Scoville, but to explore so many powerful and timely themes set against the backdrop of a captivating family drama. We can’t wait to find our next project together.”
Season 3 of 'Truth Be Told' wrapped its run back in March.
Season 3 saw Poppy (Spencer), frustrated by the lack of media attention for several young missing Black girls, teams with an unorthodox principal (Gabrielle Union) to keep the victims’ names in the public eye, while chasing down leads to a suspected sex trafficking ring that may have ensnared them.
In addition to Spencer and Union, the season also starred Mekhi Phifer, David Lyons, Ron Cephas Jones, Merle Dandridge, Tracie Thoms, Haneefah Wood, Mychala Faith Lee and Tami Roman.
