Netflix will not be moving forward with the animated series Inside Job despite its initial renewal and cliffhanger ending.
"I'm heartbroken to confirm that Netflix has decided to cancel Season 2 of Inside Job," Takeuchi posted. "Over the years, these characters have become real people to me, and I am devastated not to be able to watch them grow up. Reagan and Brett deserved to get their ending and finally find happiness. And I would have loved to been able to share what was in store with you all.
To everyone who watched, thank you for coming along on the ride. Even though I'm sad, it helps to know that there's people out there who cared just as much about these characters as me."

Lizzy Caplan, Tisha Campbell, Andy Daly, Duke, Brett Gelman, Chris Diamantopoulos, John DiMaggio and Christian Slater were in the main cast, while Severance star Adam Scott appeared in a recurring role.Takeuchi was a writer on Gravity Falls from 2014-2016, inking an overall deal with Netflix in 2018 to develop new series and create other projects.
