The Umbrella Academy to End With Season 4, Showrunner Issues Statement

Netflix has officially renewed creator and showrunner Steve Blackman’s hit superhero series The Umbrella Academy for a fourth and final season. This announcement comes two months after the show made its return with a 10-episode third season.

“I’m so excited that the incredibly loyal fans of The Umbrella Academy will be able to experience the fitting end to the Hargreeves siblings’ journey we began five years ago,” Blackman said in a statement. “But before we get to that conclusion, we’ve got an amazing story ahead for season four, one that will have fans on the edge of their seats until the final minutes.”

The Umbrella Academy season four will once again star Elliot Page as Viktor, Tom Hopper, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Robert Sheehan, David Castañeda as Diego, Aidan Gallagher as Number Five, Justine H. Min as Ben, Ritu Arya as Lila, and Colm Feore as Reginald.

Season three introduced new characters in the form of Justin Cornwell (I Am the Night) as Marcus, Britne Oldford (Hunters) as Fei, Jake Epstein (Suits) as Alphonso, Genesis Rodriguez (Big Hero 6) as Sloane, and Cazzie David as Jayme, as well as an Existential Dread Inducing Psykronium Cube playing the role of Christopher.

The Umbrella Academy is created and executive produced by Steve Blackman (Fargo, Altered Carbon). Executive producers are Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá, along with Jeff F. King (Hand of God), Bluegrass Television, and Mike Richardson and Keith Goldberg from Dark Horse Entertainment.
