The Umbrella Academy‘s cast is getting a little bit bigger for the fourth and final season!
Real-life married couple Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally will star as the Thibedeaus, two mild-mannered Midwestern community college professors named Gene and Jean. There’s no doubt their lives won’t stay mild for long when the time-bending siblings cross their paths. David Cross is also joining the lineup as Sy Grossman, an upstanding business owner who will stop at nothing to get his daughter back.
All three of these characters are created for the series, which is based on the comic series of the same name by Gerard Way. In fact, the entirety of season 4 will be freshly created for the series, as a fourth volume of the comic series has never been published.
Season 3 left off with the Hargreeves siblings, now powerless, entering a world completely reset by their father, Sir Reginald Hargreeves, who is of course, an alien. Elliot Page (Victor), Tom Hopper (Luther), David Castañeda (Diego), Emmy Raver-Lampman (Allison), Robert Sheehan (Klaus), Aidan Gallagher (Five), Justin H. Min (Ben), Ritu Arya (Lila) and Colm Feore (Reginald) will all return for the final series.
Production on season 4 began last month. There is no estimated release date as of yet.
