Get ready for another wild ride! Elliot Page, who plays Viktor Hargreeves in the hit Netflix show “The Umbrella Academy,” has hinted that things are going to be crazier than ever in the upcoming fourth and final season.
While Elliot couldn’t reveal too much to avoid spoilers, they did share some exciting news with fans. They described season 4 as filled with the show’s usual “chaos and hijinks,” which is exactly what viewers have come to expect from the dysfunctional Hargreeves siblings.
What is The Umbrella Academy?
In case you’re new to the show, “The Umbrella Academy” follows the story of seven adopted siblings, each with a unique superpower. Born on the same day to random women who showed no signs of pregnancy beforehand, these special children were adopted by billionaire Reginald Hargreeves, a mysterious and demanding figure. Reginald raised them to be a superhero team called The Umbrella Academy, but things never go smoothly for this family.
Throughout the first three seasons, the Hargreeves siblings have dealt with all sorts of problems, including:
- A never-ending apocalypse (or two!)
- Time travel mishaps
- Family arguments (lots and lots of family arguments)
Despite their issues, the Hargreeves siblings always find a way to (mostly) work together and save the world.
What to Expect in Season 4
Season 3 ended on a major cliffhanger, leaving fans with a lot of questions. Here’s a quick recap, without giving away too much:
- The siblings accidentally created a new reality.
- Their father, Reginald Hargreeves, turned out to be a robot!
- Allison made a mysterious decision that could have big consequences.
We don’t know exactly how these events will play out in season 4, but Elliot’s comments suggest that the Hargreeves siblings will be facing some serious challenges. Will they be able to fix the reality they messed up? And what will happen now that their father is gone?
