Is LEGO Masters Cancelled or Coming Back?

No. LEGO Masters was renewed for a season 6 at FOX, with the announcement coming around the network's May 2025 upfronts. That renewal has not been reversed. What's changed since then is the timeline: FOX pushed season 6 back to a midseason slot, now expected in early 2027 rather than the 2026 return a lot of fans were counting on.

So the honest status as of mid-2026 is "renewed, delayed, no premiere date yet," not cancelled. It's a frustrating limbo, but it's a different thing than the show getting axed.

FOX hasn't put out an official statement spelling out the reason, but reporting around the delay points to a scheduling squeeze. Nick Cannon, who's set to take over as host, has an ongoing hosting commitment to The Masked Singer, and FOX's summer 2026 schedule was tied up with its coverage of the FIFA World Cup. Neither of those has been confirmed by FOX as the official reason, so treat it as informed speculation rather than a stated cause.

Whatever the exact mechanics, the practical result is the same: season 6 slid from a 2026 target to a midseason 2027 one, and as of this writing there's still no locked premiere date.

This is the other headline out of the season 6 announcement. Will Arnett hosted every season from season 1 in 2020 through season 5 in 2025, plus all three Celebrity Holiday Bricktacular specials, and he was also an executive producer the whole run. For season 6, Nick Cannon is set to take over as host, reportedly due to Arnett's own scheduling conflicts.

It's a real shift for the show's identity. Arnett's deadpan, slightly chaotic energy has basically been the voice of LEGO Masters US since day one, so a new host taking over is a bigger deal than a typical cast shuffle. As of mid-2026, no season 6 judges panel has been announced either, so it's still unconfirmed whether Brickmasters Amy Corbett and Jamie Berard are returning.

One confirmed change for season 6: in-person audition episodes, a first for the US version. These were filmed at LEGOLAND California Resort in Carlsbad, shifting at least part of the casting process from an application-only model to something you can actually watch play out on screen.

Beyond that, details are thin. No episode count, no confirmed judges, and no premiere date have been announced as of mid-2026. If you want to catch up while you wait, past seasons are available to stream on Hulu, and new episodes air on FOX broadcast with next-day Hulu availability once season 6 does land.

If the US wait is getting to you, the Australian version has actually been the more active franchise lately. LEGO Masters Australia has run seven full seasons since its 2019 premiere on the Nine Network, hosted by Hamish Blake with Ryan "The Brickman" McNaught as the sole judge across every season.

A new special event, LEGO Masters Australia: Bricktacular, premiered July 5, 2026, as a four-episode event bringing back twelve returning Australian and international champions, each episode themed around a different franchise (Lord of the Rings, DC Heroes, Bluey, and Jurassic World). It's co-hosted by Hamish Blake and Sophie Monk and is still airing as of this writing, so no winner yet. In the US, LEGO Masters Australia is available on Tubi and Apple TV, separate from the FOX version's home on Hulu.
