Showrunner Joss Whedon announced today via Cinemablend that he is leaving The Nevers. New shows often have a difficult gestation, and The Nevers is no exception, having to navigate 2 pandemic lockdowns in UK in the middle of filming the sci-fi drama series for HBO. All reports from the set of The Nevers confirmed it was a very happy place to work, but clearly very draining for the writer, producer, director and showrunner.
