'Wynonna Earp' Future In Limbo As Season 4 Production Is Delayed By IDW
One of Syfy's series with most devoted following, Wynonna Earp, appears to be in danger despite the July announcement at Comic-Con that it has been renewed by the NBCU cable network for a fourth season.
The attention initially focused on Syfy, which was quick to express its full support for the series.
"Syfy ordered Season 4 of Wynonna Earp from IDW and is completely committed to the series. This has not changed," the network said in a statement, declining further comment.
For Syfy, Wynonna Earp is an acquired series and the network has no control over it. The drama comes from IDW Entertainment, which also has sold it to a number of other networks, including Space in Canada, in addition to an SVOD deal with Netflix.
I hear IDW Entertainment has indicated that it is experiencing financial difficulties, running a deficit, and cannot proceed with production on a fourth season at this time.
