Muziekcompetitieserie eindigt na debuut en eerbetoon aan wijlen mentor Liam Payne

Netflix heeft zijn muziekcompetitieserie Building the Band na één seizoen stopgezet. Het programma, waarin aspirant-zangers samenkwamen om een band te vormen zonder elkaar te zien, werd afgelopen juli voor het eerst uitgezonden en bevatte drie liveoptredens die in Manchester werden gefilmd.

Series Premise and Production Details

Produced by Remarkable Entertainment, the format assembled 50 vocalists who competed without ever seeing one another. The goal was to create new groups through blind collaboration. Three live shows took place in late August 2024 before a studio audience in Manchester.

High-Profile Mentors and Host

Former One Direction member Liam Payne joined Nicole Scherzinger of the Pussycat Dolls and Kelly Rowland of Destiny’s Child as mentors. AJ McLean of the Backstreet Boys hosted the series.

Liam Payne Connection and Dedication

The production filmed segments with Payne shortly before his death in October 2024. He fell from a hotel balcony in Argentina. Netflix later dedicated the completed series to his memory.

Finalists Continue Careers After Show

The four finalist groups — 3quency, SZN4, Soulidified, and Midnight Til Morning — have each released original music and completed tours since the series ended.

Cancellation Confirmed

Netflix declined to comment on the decision. A source verified the cancellation to Deadline, noting that the news first surfaced in a report by The Sun in the UK.
