As of writing, there is no specific release date yet for The Umbrella Academy, but Netflix announced that the fourth and final season will be released in 2024.
Talking about The Umbrella Academy’s final season, series creator, executive producer, and showrunner Steve Blackman said (via Variety):
“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. 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.”
How Many Episodes Will The Umbrella Academy Season 4 Have?
Unlike the previous seasons which consisted of ten episodes, The Umbrella Academy Season 4 will only have six episodes.
There are no official runtimes for the episodes yet, but they could be almost an hour long just like the past episodes.
The first episode is titled “The Unbearable Tragedy of Getting What You Want”, while the series finale is titled “End of The Beginning”.

Cross will play a character named Sy Grossman, a business owner who’s desperate to reconnect with his estranged daughter.
Additionally, showrunner Blackman confirmed that the Ben we saw in Season 3’s post-credits scene is Sparrow Ben, “but how that works and why we’re seeing him will be a Season 4 reveal.” He also revealed that Allison is in the same timeline, but now with Ray and Claire existing in such timeline.
The Umbrella Academy Season 4 Plot: What Is the Final Season About?
A preliminary plotline for The Umbrella Academy Season 4 was provided via What’s on Netflix:
“After landing on Earth, an alien being disguises himself as a wealthy businessman and begins to recruit superpowered humans to train for a mission to save the world. When the alien dies, the superheroes reunite to carry out the mission.”
Additionally, by the end of Season 3, we know that the Hargreeves siblings no longer have their powers, but many events are surely going to make them want to have their powers again.
Talking about what would happen in The Umbrella Academy Season 4, showrunner Blackman said:
“… the siblings losing their powers isn’t going to be the only oddity in this timeline. There are new enemies who want to see them wiped out of existence, but how do they manage without their powers? Is there even a way to get them back? The stakes have never been greater.”
Is There a Trailer for The Umbrella Academy Season 4?
There’s no trailer for The Umbrella Academy Season 4 yet. So far, what we have is the video posted on Netflix and The Umbrella Academy’s official accounts on X, with the announcement that the final season will be released in 2024.
