UMBRELLA ACADEMY. The Netflix series Umbrella Academy will be entitled to a season 4. However, it will be the last featuring the Hargreeves family.
[Mis à jour le 26 août 2022 à 10h55] Good news: Umbrella Academy will be entitled to a season 4. Bad news: it will be the last of the series. This is what Netflix announced on Twitter this Thursday, August 25, 2022, even referring to the “last family reunion” of the Hargreeves. For now, the release date is not known, the platform of streaming did not give more details on this subject. However, it seems difficult to hope for the conclusion of the series before 2024, the production of each season lasting, on average, two years.
Umbrella Academy creator Steve Blackman previously told ScreenRant that he “knows what Season 4 will be about.” As a reminder, the Hargreeves returned to their original timeline, but they all lost their powers. The Sparrows, with the exception of Ben, are also missing. Difficult to make more predictions on the fate reserved for the dysfunctional family of superheroes, Umbrella Academy regularly thwarting the predictions of fans.

Elliot Page came out as transgender on December 2, 2020. This announcement comes ahead of the release of Season 3 of the Netflix series. At first, the creators of the series support the actor but announce that this will not have an impact on the character he plays in Umbrella Academy. But they end up changing their minds, deciding that their character should be a trans man who is now called Viktor. “The scripts were already wrapped up, and production was going to start within two weeks. We had to figure out how to incorporate the story of his transition into the plot of this choral series, explained screenwriter Thomas Page McBee with Esquire. His trans identity had to exist as a texture of the character, but not as a defining trait.” The writers thus worked in concert with Elliot Page to offer the character and the public a plot as intimate as it was right for this fundamental member of the Hargreeves family: “It was an opportunity to show a transition that is so organic, so fundamental for that character, that it exists alongside the existing character story arcs, without eclipsing them.”
