The Anna Friel-led series has been axed after just one season, although the network is yet to officially confirm the move, Variety reported.


The show follows the story of a team of US soldiers led by Friel's Odelle Ballard, who kill a key Al-Qaeda commander in a gunfight with jihadists before discovering that a major US corporation is funding the terrorists.


Peter Facinelli, Jake Robinson and Allison Mack also star in the show, which is created by Peter Horton (Grey's Anatomy), Adam Armus (Heroes) and Kay Foster (The Following).
The series - which was originally titled "Odyssey" - only recently debuted on BBC Two in the UK
