Cheadle picked up a Golden Globe for his performance on the show while Bell, who has joined NBC comedy The Good Place, took home a People's Choice Award. Based on Martin House's book, the series also has four Emmy nominations and three Golden Globe nominations to its name.

The reason behind the show's cancellation is not yet known but the series from showrunner Matthew Carnahan recorded its lowest ever ratings when the fifth season premiered last month.

"House Of Lies is a comedy that has frequently been ahead of the curve," said David Nevins, President and CEO, Showtime Networks Inc. "Over the course of its five seasons, it has tackled such hot-button topics as gender identity, wealth inequality, white privilege, police brutality, interracial relationships, and code-switching with honesty and a biting sense of humor. Matthew Carnahan and Don Cheadle have been dream partners and impeccable leaders."

"The core cast of Don, Kristen, Ben and Josh are one of the best comedy teams on television. They have brought the series to an incredibly satisfying conclusion with this historic final episode shot in Cuba," Nevins added.

House of Lies' series finale will air on June 19.
