Umbrella Academy finally returned to our screens with a third season after two years of waiting. The sci-fi superhero series surely does take one’s breath away—with its confusing time travel that makes everyone rack their brains and the popcorn-grabbing family drama.
After a cliffhanger ending and exciting promotions introducing a whole new bunch of heroes (The Sparrow Academy), Season 3 premiered on Netflix on June 22. Surely, four days are enough to watch a ten-episode series for ardent fans after years of being deprived of it, right?
The Umbrella Academy Season 3 brought together the Sparrow Academy with the OG kids and again left viewers on an incredible cliffhanger.
With a finale worthy of the wait, let’s talk about the possibility of a Season 4.
Has Netflix renewed The Umbrella Academy for Season 4?
Unfortunately, there has been no official word on Season 4. However, the show is one of the most popular superhero series on Netflix.
With its popularity and fandom growth seen over the last two years and Season 3’s reception, it does seem unlikely for the show to not get a renewal. So, fingers crossed.
When could we expect Season 4 to drop?
This is another tough question to answer. If there was a seasonal pattern for the previous three releases, we could have based it on certain months. But the release dates of the three seasons have been scattered across the year.
Season 1 was released in February 2016, Season 2 in July 2020, and the latest season in June this year. It’s also difficult to say when the third season could have been released if the pandemic had not delayed the filming.
Will there be any changes in the cast in The Umbrella Academy Season 4?
Towards the end of the season, all seven Umbrella Academy members were left alive as they reset the universe. So, this means that our OG cast will certainly be staying.
Viktor (Elliot Page), Luther (Tom Hopper), Diego (David Castañeda), Allison (Emmy Raver-Lampman), Klaus (Robert Sheehan), Five (Aiden Gallagher), and Ben (Justin H. Min) will definitely return. (Yes, Klaus too, he wasn’t dead after all. He survived!)
Other than the OG club, Lila (Ritu Arya), Ray (Yusuf Gatewood), Coco Assad (Claire), Reginald Hargreeves (Colm Feore), and Liisa Repo-Martell (Abigail) too will most likely be seen in a potential Season 4.
What will the plot of The Umbrella Academy Season 4 be?
While nothing has yet been revealed about Season 4, it is safe to assume that there will be much bigger struggles and fights awaiting the Hargreeves siblings. There are plenty of questions that the Season 3 finale springs up, too.
Luther is out searching for Sloane (who might or might not remember him), Allison is separated from the team, and it is debatable if she still has her powers or not, everyone else’s power was possibly drawn out when the world resurrected, and we saw a Ben traveling in Korea—whether it was The Umbrella Academy Ben or The Sparrow Academy Ben is unclear as well.
Meanwhile, The Umbrella Academy Seasons 1 to 3 are available to stream on Netflix.
