With reports that The Umbrella Academy season 4 would be the likely end if the show was renewed, it wasn’t surprising when TVLine reported Netflix had renewed the series for a fourth and final season. This isn’t a Netflix decision, though. The show is ending on its own terms, and that means we get to wrap up everything very soon.

Of course, that’s bittersweet. Who wants one of their favorite shows to come to an end? It’s probably a good thing then that the series isn’t on the list of shows arriving on Netflix in September 2022. Not that we expected that to be the case, but it didn’t stop us from looking.

When will The Umbrella Academy season 4 come to Netflix?

So, how long are we waiting for the new show to arrive? It’s going to be a while. We’re not expecting it at all in 2022. It is hard to pin down when it could reach, though.

It took 17 months between the first two seasons. It then took almost two years between the second and third seasons, although the pandemic did cause a problem there. So, we could say 17 months is the likely turnaround time as long as there aren’t any delays. The earliest we’re likely to see the season is November 2023, and that work could start before an official renewal.

The longest we’ll likely need to wait is May 2024. We hope we don’t have to, but we know the story's conclusion will be worth it. Plus, with it being a conclusion, the long wait isn’t worrisome for the series' future.

The Umbrella Academy is available to stream on Netflix.
