According to a new report from HBO Max, Warner Media Kids & Family has decided to cancel the feature film which would be based on the acclaimed animation (via ComicBook.com).

With little information released, the reason for the cancellation is unknown, but it’s possible this and other projects recently dropped by the producer could be salvaged by other companies.

The feature film was previously announced under the working title ‘The Amazing World of Gumball: The Movie‘, which would both serve as a conclusion to the original series and pave the way for a new series, titled ‘The Amazing World of Gumball : The Amazing World of Gumball: The Series’.

The film would bring in Ben Bocquelet as executive producer and director, who would also write the screenplay alongside Shane Mack. Sam Register, Vanessa Brookman and Sarah Fell would produce.
