Atlanta‘s fourth season will also be its last, FX chairman John Landgraf revealed during an executive session on Thursday.
News of the comedy’s fourth and final season comes a little more than a month before Season 3 is set to drop on FX on March. 24.
“After a four year absence, we’re graced with the return of Atlanta. Donald Glover and his team have shot the final two seasons of the series,” Landgraf said.
The 10-episode third season marks the first time Atlanta will be available for in-season streaming on Hulu.
He continued: “The fourth and final season is slated to debut in the same manner in the fall. The new season is everything you’d expect from Atlanta – which is to say expect the unexpected. Sit back and enjoy the trip.”
Taking place almost entirely in Europe, Season 3 finds Earn (Donald Glover), Alfred / ‘Paper Boi (Brian Tyree Henry), Darius (LaKeith Stanfield) and Van (Zazie Beetz) in the midst of a successful European tour, as the group navigates their new surroundings as outsiders, and struggle to adjust to the newfound success they had aspired to.
The series from Donald Glover has won a total of five Primetime Emmy Awards since its debut in 2016, including a Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series and Outstanding Directing for a Comedy Series prizes in 2017. In 2018 the FX comedy also won for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series, Outstanding Cinematography for a Single-Camera Series (Half-Hour) and Outstanding Sound Editing for a Comedy or Drama Series (Half-Hour) and Animation.
Atlanta is executive produced by Donald Glover, Stephen Glover, Hiro Murai, Stefani Robinson, Paul Simms and Dianne McGunigle. Atlanta is produced by FX Productions.
