It comes after Brassic was reportedly set to be axed after its sixth series as the cast wished to move on from the Sky comedy to work on other projects.
The show, which stars Michelle as Erin Croft, launched its fifth season last year and a Christmas special followed shortly after in December.
However, a report at the time revealed the show could be ‘unlikely’ to return in 2024 as the producers worked on a ‘sixth and final instalment’.
A Sky insider told The Mirror: ‘Brassic is very unlikely to return after next year’s sixth series. It’s had incredible success, but the feeling among some of the cast is that it’s time to move on.’
‘Ryan was considering leaving after series five but was persuaded to continue by the bosses at Sky. Michelle is also finding it harder to work her schedule around filming as she’s in demand for so many projects.’
A Sky spokesperson denied that the show will end after series six however, telling MailOnline: ‘Brassic has not been cancelled. The show remains one of Sky’s best-performing original comedies. With a highly successful series five launch just last week, it is a firm favourite with our customers.’
