Bryan Cranston is busy working on the upcoming second season of Your Honor, but this Showtime series won’t be keeping him busy for too much longer. The Emmy-winning actor recently discussed the show’s future and said that this upcoming Season 2 will be its last.

Showtime is yet to confirm the show’s cancelation, but Cranston said he’s getting ready to film the show’s last season in a recent episode of Dax Shepard’s Armchair Expert podcast.

“I am [currently] preparing for the second and last season of Your Honor, which is a limited series that I did for Showtime. As they tell me, it got higher ratings than any other series they’ve ever had — and so, one more season of that,” said Cranston.

Your Honor was originally conceived as a limited series, but Showtime executives were so impressed by its ratings that they decided to bring it back for another round. It’s based on the Israeli TV series Kvodo and centers on a respected New Orleans judge, who goes to great lengths to protect his son after he kills a son of a vicious mafia kingpin in a hit-and-run.

Your Honor also stars Hunter Doohan, Hope Davis, Sofia Black-D’Elia, Michael Stuhlbarg, Carmen Ejogo, and Isiah Whitlock Jr.
