Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code TV Show Adaptation Cancelled After Season 1

Dan Brown’s Da Vinci Code TV show adaptation, The Lost Symbol, has officially been canceled following its first season. The Lost Symbol premiered on Peacock in September 2021 and acted as a prequel to the films starring Tom Hanks. The mystery thriller followed Harvard professor Robert Langdon during his early years, who must solve a deadly sequence of puzzles in order to save his kidnapped mentor. The Lost Symbol saw Ashley Zukerman take on the role of Langdon, with Valorie Curry, Sumalee Montano, Rick Gonzalez, Eddie Izzard, and Beau Knapp also joining the cast.   

Peacock has announced that it will not be renewing The Lost Symbol for a second season, as reported by Deadline. While proud of the series, the streaming service noted that The Lost Symbol was a complete story following the ending of the first season, closing the book on that narrative. Check out the official statement from the streaming service below:

“We were so proud to bring this action-packed thriller to our members and enjoyed watching this compelling series unfold with a satisfying, complete story. We’re grateful to Dan Dworkin, Jay Beattie, Dan Brown, Brain Grazer and Ron Howard along with CBS Studios, Imagine Television and UTV for brining this international bestselling novel to life.”

The famed Robert Langdon book series has been taken anywhere from Tom Hanks and the big screen to Zukerman and streaming apps over the years. In an industry that’s currently dripping with nostalgia, it makes one wonder if a Da Vinci Code reboot of sorts is in the future for the Robert Langdon storyline with the announcement of The Lost Symbol coming to an end.
