When Canadian filmmaker Jean-Marc Vallée (Dallas Buyers Club, The Young Victoria) suddenly died in December 2021, it spelt the end for Big Little Lies, despite the show's huge success over its two-season run.
"We talked about doing a season three a lot," said Zoë Kravitz, one of the show's leads, to GQ in 2022. "Unfortunately, Jean-Marc Vallée, our incredible director, passed away this last year. It's heartbreaking. I can't imagine going on without him. He really was the visionary for that show. Unfortunately, it's done."
