The Hargreeves clan will return for one final round of doomsday time travel detours in the fourth season of The Umbrella Academy, The acclaimed Netflix series based on the Dark Horse Comics series by Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá, and adapted for the platform by Jeremy Slater and Steve Blackman. Check out the first trailer!
During the fourth season, it appears that the team is preparing for at least one more time loop for their final run; As usual with the Umbrella Academy gang, things kicked off with more explosive action and superhero sibling shenanigans after last season’s unsettling reset and cliffhanger ending. With only six episodes in the final season (previous entries all had 10), the action will have to be more compact, although from the looks of this trailer, there will still be time for the weird stuff (three words : Free from all ties Dance battle! Three more words: sensitive telekinetic cube!) which makes The Umbrella Academy so much fun to watch – this time more tentacles, Santa Claus, Klaus Cults 2: Electric Boogaloo and Viktor reinforcing the Super-Saiyan style.
Here’s the official description for season 4 from Netflix: “The Hargreeves siblings scattered after the climactic showdown at Hotel Oblivion that led to a complete reset of their timeline. Stripped of their powers, everyone must fend for themselves and find a new normal, with widely varying degrees of success. Yet the pitfalls of their strange new world prove too difficult to ignore for long. Their father Reginald, alive and well, has emerged from the shadows and into the public eye, overseeing a powerful and nefarious business empire. A mysterious association known as The gardians organizes clandestine meetings believing that the reality they live in is a lie and that a great reckoning is coming. As these strange new forces conspire around them, the Umbrella Academy must come together one last time – and risk upending the fragile peace they have endured so much to achieve – to finally make things right.
The Umbrella Academy stars Elliot Page, Tom Hopper, David Castañeda, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Robert Sheehan, Aidan Gallagher, Justin H. Min and Ritu Arya. You can catch up seasons one to three The Umbrella Academy on Netflix ahead of the season four premiere on August 8.
