Ryan Phillippe series, Shooter, which aired for three seasons, will soon depart Netflix globally. Initially gone from the US in June 2023, other regions will lose access in mid-September 2023. Adapted from a movie with Mark Wahlberg, the show centered on Bob Lee Swagger, a retired marine drawn into a government conspiracy. The cast included Ryan Phillippe, Shantel VanSanten, Omar Epps, Cynthia Addai-Robinson, Eddie McClintock, and Josh Stewart. After three seasons, USA Network chose not to renew the show, and attempts to find it a new home were fruitless. Netflix obtained global rights through a licensing deal with USA Network for the US, while international rights (excluding Canada) were acquired for exclusive streaming shortly after airing. In the US, Shooter Seasons 1-3 had been released in June or May each year, with the final season arriving on June 21, 2019. Now, four years later, Netflix is set to lose rights on June 21, 2023, as indicated by a removal notice on the show's page. Internationally, Netflix in some regions will retain the show longer, like in the UK where access is expected until September 14, 2023. This five-year span aligns with the addition of the season 3 finale on June 22, 2018. Everywhere else, Shooter's last watchable day is September 13, followed by complete removal on September 14.
