With Leland Townsend's unanticipated surprise at the end of the third season, the anticipation for Evil season 4 reached a fever pitch.

Robert and Michelle King’s supernatural drama was renewed for a fourth season on July 5, 2022, by Paramount+. Like many other shows, the series would have arrived sooner than expected.

However, given the SAG-AFTRA strikes, the filming, which had already started in December 2022, was postponed to December 2023. On February 15, 2024, the show’s producers made it public that Evil season 4 will be the grand finale for the series.

Moreover, to wrap up the story with a fitting conclusion, the producers announced the addition of four extra episodes to the schedule. Follow along with the article to learn more about Evil Season 4.

Evil Season 4 will be released on May 9, 2024

Evil season 4 will be released on May 23, 2024, on Paramount+. As mentioned above, the fourth installment will mark the end of the show.

However, it will be an extended season, given the addition of four episodes. Although there will be no Evil-goodness after season 4 by Paramount+, there is always a possibility that other streaming giants, especially Netflix, will pick up the franchise.

Initially, the fourth season was to run for ten episodes from May 23 to July 25, but with the season getting four more episodes, the grand finale will be on August 22, 2024, offering fans four months of thrilling anticipation.
