Underground’ director, Anthony Hemingway says he is still hopeful the show will find a home after cancelled by WGN.  

“We’re still waiting,” he said. “I think we have until the end of August to have the definitive answer on whether we find a new home or not. I stay hopeful until the last moment.”

Hemingway said the show’s producers are relying on the fact that “Underground” wasn’t canceled because of ratings concerns, but in the wake of WGN America’s programming shift.

“It isn’t that they lost faith or that it got canceled, we ended up in a weird situation,” he said. “We stand on what we’ve done. We’re using somewhat of the fan base that is continuing to desperately ask about it. Were hoping something comes through.”
