Is there an Evil Season 5 release date?
There is no Evil Season 5 release date as the showrunners have announced its cancellation.
In its four-season run, Evil has received immense love from the audience, given that it had a gripping storyline and some stellar performances. Season 4 is marked as the last season, which premiered in May 2024. Aside from the usual episodes, Paramount Plus also added four more bonus episodes to make the series reach its conclusion. However, the showrunners announced in a statement that Season 5 won’t be happening, ahead of Season 4’s release.
They extended their thanks to the titular network, announced the series departure, and expressed enthusiasm for Season 4. They said, “We want to thank Paramount+ for giving us four bonus episodes to end Evil in the world in style. We will miss this show and cast. In many ways it was a dream project, but sadly evil will outlast Evil.” (via TV Line)
