Horizon: Zero Dawn Netflix Show Reportedly No Longer Moving Forward After Showrunner Accusations
It’s being reported that the Horizon: Zero Dawn series, which is in development at Netflix, is no longer happening following the allegations concerning its showrunner.
In a report by Rolling Stone, Umbrella Academy showrunner Steve Blackman was accused of toxic, bullying, manipulative, and retaliatory behavior. Now, the two other shows he has in production have seemingly been shelved.

The other show is the original series Orbital. The Horizon show was announced in August of 2022. It was also confirmed to include protagonist Aloy from the Guerilla Games PlayStation video game hit.
The latest report comes from sources close to Rolling Stone. Senior Reporter Cheyenne Roundtree took to social media to reveal this latest scoop. There’s no clarification at present on whether the shows will still be made without Blackman or simply shelved in their entirety.
”Scoop: Rolling Stone has learned that two of ‘Umbrella Academy’ showrunner Steve Blackman’s projects that were in development at Netflix, a Horizon Zero Dawn series and an original series, Orbital, are no longer moving forward.”
Horizon Zero Dawn follows Aloy, a young outcast who sets out to unravel the mysteries behind her post-apocalyptic world. It’s a world of robotic beasts and strange technology. The first game was released for the PS4 in 2017. Thereafter, its sequel, Horizon Forbidden West, was released for the PS4 and PS5 in 2022. A PSVR 2 spinoff was released in 2023, and a Lego take on the series is coming this year.
