Laverne Cox on Clean Slate Cancellation: ‘A Dagger to My Heart’
SHARE

Laverne Cox has opened up about the heartbreaking cancellation of her Amazon Prime Video series, “Clean Slate.” The 52-year-old actress compared the news to taking a “dagger to [her] heart,” revealing that she cried like a baby when she found out a few weeks before the announcement was made.

The series, which Cox created and produced alongside co-stars George Wallace and Dan Ewen, followed the story of 40-year-old Desiree (played by Cox) returning to her small Alabama hometown to come out as a trans woman to her father (Wallace) after a 23-year estrangement. Despite the show’s positive reception, Prime Video decided not to move forward with a second season, leaving Cox devastated.

In an exclusive interview with Us Weekly, Cox expressed her deep disappointment over the cancellation, stating that she had never felt as attached to a project as she did with “Clean Slate.” The show was loosely based on her own life, making the loss even more personal and devastating.

Despite the disappointment, Cox expressed gratitude for the fans who embraced the show’s inclusive message and expressed their love for the series online. She acknowledged the impact the show had on viewers, noting that many people saw themselves in the characters and found joy in the representation on screen.

While Cox is still processing the cancellation, she hasn’t given up hope of finding “Clean Slate” a new home on another streaming platform or TV network. She plans to “shop it elsewhere” in the hopes of giving the show a second chance.

Looking ahead, Cox shared her desire to take on more challenging projects in her career. The experience of doing a sitcom has inspired her to explore different genres and roles, with a focus on projects that push her artistically. She mentioned upcoming projects, including an animated remake of “Animal Farm” where she voices Snowball and a movie called “Outcome” alongside Keanu Reeves.
