Netflix has announced that the final season of the popular series ‘The Umbrella Academy’ will premiere on August 8. The show, based on the Dark Horse comic book series by Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá, follows the Hargreeves siblings, who are once again thrown into chaos after a climactic showdown at the Hotel Oblivion resets their timeline.
In the upcoming season, the siblings are scattered and stripped of their powers, each struggling to find a new normal. However, the peculiarities of their new world soon prove too compelling to ignore. Their father, Reginald Hargreeves, has emerged from the shadows, now heading a powerful and sinister business empire. Meanwhile, a mysterious group called ‘The Keepers’ holds clandestine meetings, convinced that their reality is a lie and a significant reckoning is imminent.
As these new threats converge, ‘The Umbrella Academy’ must reunite one last time to set things right, risking the fragile peace they’ve fought so hard to secure.
The final season is created for television and showrun by Steve Blackman, who also serves as an executive producer alongside Jennifer Cecil, Mike Richardson, Keith Goldberg, Scott Stuber, Beau Bauman, Pascal Verschooris, Jesse McKeown, Abbey Morris, and Jeremy Webb. Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá, the original creators of the comic series, are co-executive producers.
The key cast includes Elliot Page, Tom Hopper, David Castañeda, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Robert Sheehan, Aidan Gallagher, Justin H. Min, Ritu Arya, Colm Feore, Nick Offerman, Megan Mullally, and David Cross. The series is produced by UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group, for Netflix.
Mark your calendars for August 8 and prepare for an epic conclusion to ‘The Umbrella Academy’ on Netflix.
