In an eagerly awaited announcement, an OTT giant has revealed that the acclaimed superhero television series ‘The Umbrella Academy’ will be returning for its fourth and final season on August 8, 2024. All six episodes are set to drop simultaneously.
Previously, during the OTT platform’s Geek Week event, the cast of ‘The Umbrella Academy’ thrilled viewers with hints about the upcoming season by promising that it is both “sexy” and “wacky.” This final installment is slightly shorter with six episodes, while the previous seasons were of ten episodes.
Excitement for the upcoming season is further fueled by the featuring of actors including Nick Offerman, Megan Mullally, and David Cross to the existing cast. Offerman and Mullally, real-life couples, will portray the characters of doctors Gene and Jean Thibedeau. Their peculiar condition of extreme déjà vu adds an intriguing twist to the narrative.
