Fox cancels show before its release?

Television channel Fox has reportedly axed one of its new television series, two months before it officially releases.

The network has decided to pull the plug on 'Hieroglyph', its ambitious drama set in ancient Egypt that was set to debut at midseason, citing creative issues, reported E! Online.

Created by Pacific Rim's Travis Beacham, starring Beauty and the Beast's Max Brown, John Rhys-Davies, Reece Ritchie and Condola Rashad, 'Hieroglyph' was ordered straight to series back in October.

Representatives for Fox are yet to comment on the matter.
