“Being Mary Jane” is coming to a close with a two-hour TV movie in lieu of a final season, which is set to air next year.

In light of the recent cancellation announcement, Gabrielle Union took to Instagram to issue a statement to fans of the show to thank them for their support and to reflect on the impact the show has had on so many people.

–‘Being Mary Jane’ set to end in 2018 with 2-hour series finale movie on BET–

“We have all worked so tirelessly to bring you a show that we could be proud to be a part of. Mary Jane has become my favorite character. We’ve screwed up together, laughed together, evolved together, and raised hell together. I love all her imperfections, and through playing her I became more forgiving of others who are imperfect and on the journey of self discovery and improvement. We watched her struggle with relationships with both men and women, and we watched her finally start to get her sh** together,” she wrote.

“But the journey isn’t over yet. We, as a Being Mary Jane family, cannot wait to bring you this final 2 hour series finale movie that will answer all your questions about each and every character. More than anything, however, we want to thank you with every fiber of our being for faithfully watching the show and supporting our work… from the actors, writers, producers, directors and enormous crew over the years, we are humbled and we remain grateful. Thank you!”
