The American superhero TV show The Umbrella Academy is based on the same-named comic book series written by Gerard Way, drawn by Gabriel Bá, and put out by Dark Horse Comics. It was produced by Jeremy Slater and created by Steve Blackman for Netflix, and it follows a family of adopted superhero siblings who must come together to investigate their father’s death and prevent the end of the world.
Borderline Entertainment (seasons 1-2), Irish Cowboy (season 3), Dark Horse Entertainment (season 4), and Universal Content Productions (seasons 5+) are responsible for producing the show. Netflix classified the first two seasons as TV-14, but season three is classified as TV-MA.
In 2011, Universal Pictures acquired the film rights to adapt the book, and production on the adaptation began. In 2015, it was canceled in favor of a TV series, and Netflix didn’t give the show the go-ahead until July 2017. Ontario cities of Toronto and Hamilton serve as the settings for the show’s production.
What Have Producers Said About The Umbrella Academy Season 4?
Steve Blackman, the creator of The Umbrella Academy, has announced an interesting development. The producer addressed rumors that there would only be six episodes of the Netflix show in season four on Twitter. Seasons one through three each included 10 episodes.
Blackman also promised his audience that they will “enjoy” the upcoming installments, so the news isn’t all bad. We have no reason to think otherwise!
It’s true. But you’re going to love them. https://t.co/jV9ysCcPK0

A fan tweeted, which Blackman paraphrased, “THERE IS NO WAY THE UMBRELLA ACADEMY S4 HAS 6 EPISODES STOP LYING THAT ISN’T TRUE STOP [sic].”
The showrunner then emailed back, saying “I can confirm that this is correct. However, you’re going to adore them.” He also said that Season 4 will include “Six great episodes!” – thus, it would appear that there is much for which to be excited.
