Wish We Were Showing You Mars: Hilary Swank After Netflix Cancels ‘Away’

Los Angeles: Oscar winner Hilary Swank has thanked her fans for watching her space drama “Away”, a day after the show was cancelled by Netflix. The series, which premiered on September 4, featured Swank as astronaut Emma Green who leads an international crew to the red planet while struggling to cope with the guilt of being away from her teenage daughter and sick husband.

Though the show performed solidly in the US, the streamer decided to pull the plug on it after just one season. On Tuesday, Swank, 46, took to Instagram and shared a still from the show. “Love and hope will always remain my North Star.’ It was an incredible journey my compadres,” she wrote in the caption. “And thank you to all my extraordinary followers who watched and supported our beautiful show. Wish we were showing you Mars. Until the next one,” she added.
