“Netflix will meet with Liam’s family when the time comes to talk about the series and when it might air,” a source said. He told the US Sun Sunday.

Payne served as a mentor on the UK-based competition series alongside Pussycat Dolls alum Nicole Scherzinger and Destiny’s Child singer Kelly Rowland. AJ McLean from the Backstreet Boys was the emcee.

Filming wrapped at Aviva Studios in Manchester in August.

The source added that although it is unclear when the series will air, “the series has definitely not been shelved.”
