HBO Passes on Open

HBO has said no to Ryan Murphy.

More than a year after ordering it to pilot, the premium cable network has opted to not move forward on the Glee and American Horror Story creator's sexuality drama Open, The Hollywood Reporter has learned. "After such a triumphant collaboration with The Normal Heart, everyone felt that Open was not the right next step for all involved," HBO programming president Michael Lombardo said in a statement. "However, we fully expect to work together again in the near future."

Fringe's Anna Torv, Scott Speedman (Felicity), Michelle Monaghan (True Detective) and Wes Bentley (The Hunger Games) starred in the pilot, which was one of four dramas in the works at HBO.

The cabler also passed on David Milch's Money and has a rock drama from Martin Scorsese and Mick Jagger as well as high-profile drama Westworld, The Missionary and Laughs Unlimited, among others, still in the works.
