HBO Max's feature "Driftwood" was canceled just a few months after it was illuminated by greenery.

HBO Max has canceled the direct streaming feature Driftwood, Cartoon Brew confirmed. The project was announced just 3 months ago.

The 90-minute feature, created by Victor Courtright (Aquaman: King of Atlantis, Thundercats Roar), is "an original animated space opera with a big laugh, heart and adventure for the whole family.""It was produced by Cartoon Network Studios, a subsidiary of Warner Bros. Discovery.

The film was about following the journey of a mouse-like creature named Clover who must defeat the villainous monarch Thorne to save her home from a toxic fuel source. On the way, Clover found allies in Marigold and Caspia, and 3 people together defended the forest on the edge of infinity.

Speaking about the background of Cartoon Brew, representatives of Cartoon Network Studios have repeatedly expressed their outstanding artist management team and indicated that they are working hard to put as many crew members as possible on other projects.

The news of Driftwood's cancellation came shortly after last week's unexpected announcement by hbo Max, which quickly removed dozens of series from the platform, and most of them Warner Bros., as well as Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and Warner Bros., and WarnerSince and Discovery completed the merger on May 4 this year, the new company Warner Bros.Discovery (WBD) is making significant company-wide cuts to reduce its debt by more thană‚‹500 billion. Major animation and family executives like Tom Ascheim and Allison Abbate, and projects like Scoob from the Warner Animation Group were pushed out.: Holiday haunt has been cancelled without warning.

In a recent earnings call for WBD, the company said it would only make big-budget features that it felt deserved the release of the theatrical version and cut down on direct movies for hbo Max. In addition, "Course correction measures" will be taken for kids & animation content. Thus, Driftwood, who had the unfortunate distinction of being a direct hbo Max animated film, would have clearly been in the prospect of cost-cutting wbd management.
