After season 3 concluded with a gripping finale, the anticipation for Evil season 4 soared, leaving the audience eagerly speculating on the forthcoming plot developments. Given the series’ good reception, Paramount+ had to renew Evil for a fourth season, which will be the franchise's final installment.
However, given that it would be challenging to wrap the series with just the fourth season, the producers were given four additional episodes to conclude the series. The final four additions were later decided to be a part of a fifth mini-season, which Robert & Michell King and Katja Herbers revealed on their social handles as well as in an interview with TV Line.
How many episodes are there in Evil season 4?
As Katja Herbers revealed on her Twitter/X handle, Evil season 4 will comprise fourteen episodes. However, the catch is that the first 10 episodes will be a part of season 4, and the additional four episodes will be of season 5.
As confirmed by Herbers and the showrunners, both seasons will run simultaneously, so fans don’t have to wait for season 5 after the fourth installment concludes. Season 4 will be available to stream exclusively on Paramount+. Other OTT giants won’t be including the season in the catalog.
However, the first two seasons of Evil are available on Netflix. Each episode will drop every Thursday on Paramount+, starting May 23 to August 22, 2024, at 3:01 am ET. Below is the complete release schedule of season 4:
