HBO Max is not moving forward with its drama pilot "American Blue," which starred Milo Ventimiglia. The show was a cop drama and one of two drama pilots the streaming service recently commissioned. The other pilot, the family drama "How to Survive Without Me," has no official update yet.
Warner Bros. Television, the studio behind "American Blue," is now shopping the project to other buyers. Both pilots were developed under the model established by "The Pitt," though details of that model were not specified in the reports.
The decision affects only the pilot stage, meaning the show will not be developed further at HBO Max. No reason for the change was given.
