Amazon has announced that season 6 of The Expanse will be its last. Given that season 5, to start December 16, covers books 5 and 6 in the series, season 6 will need to cover the events of the final three books (the last of which hasn't yet been published).
Also, Cas Anvar, who plays Alex, won't be returning in season 6.
Amazon Studios announced in a press release that the streaming platform has given The Expanse an early renewal for season six, which Deadline first reported would be the final season. This comes a few weeks before the show is set to return on December 16 with season five, which sees the Belters rising up against Earth and Mars. However, Cas Anvar, who’s played Alex since the first season, will not be joining them for the final season—following a string of sexual misconduct allegations earlier this year. As of now, it’s unclear how much Anvar will be present in season five or how the series will address his departure in the final chapter.
Hopefully, the writers and producers will do a better job of concluding the series than those of Game of Thrones.
