Producers have confirmed that the recently concluded second season of Tokyo Vice will be the show’s last on the Warner Bros. Discovery-backed platform, Max. Originally envisioned as a two-season show, the decision to end the series after the April 4 finale was supported by star Ansel Elgort and the original executive regime who championed the series. Despite hopes for a third season, the show’s creators expressed gratitude for the opportunity to share their story on Max until now. Based on the nonfiction book by Jake Adelstein, Tokyo Vice received critical acclaim for its writing, cinematography, and performances. The decision to end Tokyo Vice is part of a larger trend as networks and streamers streamline their offerings in response to the changing television landscape. Fans of the show have expressed disappointment at the news, eager for more of the gritty modern noir thriller.
