The creators of the hit series Evil, Robert and Michelle King, have announced the highly anticipated fourth and final season, along with four additional episodes, to be streamed on Paramount Plus. Accompanying this announcement is a tantalizing new teaser trailer that promises an epic conclusion.
Expressing gratitude to Paramount Plus for granting them the opportunity to wrap up Evil with these bonus episodes, Robert and Michelle King, renowned for their work on The Good Wife and The Good Fight, shared their sentiments, stating, “We want to thank Paramount Plus 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. See you in May.”
For those unfamiliar with the series, Evil delves into the realms of psychological mystery, exploring the origins of evil through the intricate interplay of science and religion.
The narrative revolves around a skeptical female psychologist who teams up with a priest-in-training and a contractor to delve into the Church’s repository of unexplained phenomena, encompassing everything from purported miracles to demonic possessions and hauntings.
Notably, the series features the enigmatic presence of George, a sleep-paralysis demon portrayed by Marti Matulis, who adds a quirky touch with his TikTok dances.
The ensemble cast includes notable talents such as Katja Herbers from Westworld, Mike Colter, known for Jessica Jones and The Defenders, Aasif Mandvi from The Brink, Michael Emerson, recognized for his role in Lost, and Christine Lahti, whom viewers catch a glimpse of in the teaser.
Although the fourth season was greenlit in 2022, production faced setbacks due to strikes by the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA). However, fans can rejoice as filming for the extra four episodes is slated to commence soon.
Mark your calendars, as the fourth and final season of Evil is scheduled to premiere on Paramount Plus in May. Stay tuned for more updates, and in the meantime, explore our curated list of the most anticipated new TV shows coming your way in 2024 and beyond.
