While The OA star Jason Isaacs hasn't been terribly optimistic about the show being brought back, he has revealed that he knows what its creators had planned for upcoming seasons.
The show was controversially axed by Netflix recently after just two seasons, which sparked a large fan campaign for a revival on social media.
While a return looks unlikely as things stand, Isaacs has revealed that the show's creators did have future seasons "mapped out" – and he has been made privy to the plans too.
"It's been cancelled by Netflix," he reflected on Tuesday's (September 24) Lorraine. "I love Netflix, but they cancelled it. I don't work for them, I wouldn't want their decisions. It's a tough environment."
Lorraine Kelly then suggested it was hard to describe what the show was about, Isaacs adding: "It's not like anything you'll have ever seen before.
"I'll tell you this, they've got season three – actually and four and five – but particularly three, mapped out in their heads.

"And they've told me what it is, I feel embarrassed that I've had the privilege of hearing it. It's utterly brilliant. I wish I could share it with people, but my version wouldn't be as good as telling it on screen."
Speaking over the weekend about the show's future, the actor admitted: "I hope we get to make some more but I don't see how it's going to happen.
"But even the fact that there are two seasons of this amazing show to watch, the great thing about Netflix is that it never goes away. I suggest people watch it. If you haven't seen it, you'll never seen anything as original in your life. It's phenomenal."
The OA is available to watch on Netflix, while Lorraine airs weekday mornings at 8.30am on ITV.
