"Warning: This article contains spoilers that some readers may prefer to avoid. Southland could still return for a wrap-up movie, exec producer Christopher Chulack has claimed. The acclaimed cop drama was axed by TNT in May 2013 and drew to a close after five seasons.  &amp;quot;I certainly had the hopes that maybe we could do a Kickstarter thing [for a follow-up film] and get some money raised,&amp;quot; Chulack told Entertainment Weekly. &amp;quot;There was that hope flying around, but nothing came to fruition, and then that has since died down.&amp;quot; However, Chulack added that he is still &amp;quot;on board&amp;quot; with the idea of a Southland revival, claiming that the show&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;only hope&amp;quot; may be to &amp;quot;do an independent movie&amp;quot;. &amp;quot;If anybody wanted to get involved and raise money or try to go out and sell it hard, I&amp;#039;d certainly be on board with that,&amp;quot; he said. Southland originally ended on a cliffhanger, with viewers unsure if John Cooper (Michael Cudlitz) survived a fateful confrontation with the police. &amp;quot;I always thought that Cooper lived,&amp;quot; Chulack clarified. &amp;quot;[In the planned film], he&amp;#039;s very much alive, very much dealing with his past as he has been from day one.&amp;quot; The final episode of Southland aired on April 17 on US screens, pulling in an audience of 1.83m viewers.
