Netflix itself has given us a number of direct viewing hours through its global top 10 sites. Every week, they publish 40 issues with the viewing times of the most watched shows and movies.

Here's how his weekly hourly viewership numbers break down:

It should also be noted that some of the previous seasons also saw an increase in viewership with the release of The Umbrella Academy Season 3. Seasons 1 and 2 of the show appeared in the top 10 per hour.

Notably, season 2 accumulated 34,53 million hours watched between June 26 and July 10. Season 1 saw the biggest increase in viewership with 78,25 million hours watched between June 19 and July 10.

what to expect from the umbrella academy 4 season

The best worst father in the world.

Sir Reginald Hargreeves is, without a doubt, one of the worst fathers in the known universe. Merely a means to a selfish end, the only reason Reginald adopted the children from Umbrella Academy and Sparrow Academy was so he could restore the universe to his image and reunite with his late wife, Abigail.

Once his children realize he's alive, expect a less civil visit from the Hargreeves family. We still don't know the full extent of what Reginald's universe reboot means for his children, but in Reginald's way, we hope they messed them up again.

A life without powers

With their powers removed, the Umbrella Academy and Sparrow are a greatly reduced threat to Reginald. Life will be radically different for the Hargreeves family who, without their powers, will now experience a new form of vulnerability. This means that Klaus will no longer have a bus ball.

It also begs the question, in this world, did Reginald adopt the Hargreeves children? Whether he did or not, that could mean all of their respective mothers are still alive. After finally bonding with Reginald it all came to naught, so while Klaus will always feel the pain of betrayal, if he realizes his mother may still be alive, he will immediately do a road trip in Pennsylvania. .

If some of the Hargreeves have a better life without their powers, like Allison, it may be necessary to convince them to return to their old lives.

Blackman, in an interview with Netflix, said of this:

“…the brothers losing their powers won’t be the only quirk of this timeline. There are new enemies who want to see them disappear, but how do they do without their powers? Is there a way to get them back? The stakes have never been higher. »

Aidan Gallagher teased that we might see characters from the show more like their comic book counterparts. In an interview with Collider, he told them, “We might see a more comedic version of Five in Season 4.”

Gallagher also talked about what we can expect from her character, saying:

“I think he's going to go into mission mode and try to figure out how to fix everything with this weird new reality that Hargreeves has invented. I do not know. You can bring in a more mission-focused version of Five. It's very final, the way it's resolved. It's this new world, in which they have no power. I'd like to see some of the characters, at least for now, settle into that reality. I don't know if Five is that personality type. I think he's still going to struggle with that, but we'll have to see. Hopefully they will take it. »

Time skip?

In real life, Aidan Gallagher, the actor of Five is 18 years old and will be 19 in September. By the time we expect The Umbrella Academy Season 4 to hit Netflix, he will be nearly 21. Now, with Gallagher playing a hugely compelling 15-year-old boy, it won't be long before he outgrows him. A simple time jump would fit the actor's actual growth into Five's story that appears to be over 15 years old.

Included in the time skip, we got to see how drastically the Hargreeves' lives changed. Diego and Lila will have had their baby, if Luther manages to find Sloane, the newlyweds can enjoy a few years of marital bliss, and Ben, clearly upset at the loss of his powers, can begin his plan to defeat Hargreeves. .

a broken family

All of the Hargreeves have gone through trials, tribulations and traumas, and however dysfunctional they are, they have remained a family. But in a new universe without powers, the choice to move on could sever relations for the family who want their powers back.

Allison's betrayal will continue to sting, and while she's reunited with Claire and Ray, she can try to fix the burning bridge with her brothers.

When asked if Allison was in a different timeline, showrunner Steve Blackman replied:

“…Allison is not in a different timeline, she is in the same timeline. In fact, Ray and Claire now exist in this timeline. It was the dark bargain he made with Hargreeves, to help Hargreeves reunite the family. That's what he got.

We also see Ben from Season 3 in the post-credits scene, but is that a new Ben? Blackman said:

“It's not a different timeline, Ben. He's the Ben we've known since Season 3, but how it works and why we see him will be a revelation in Season 4."

When the umbrella academy Will season 4 go into production? When will Season 4 air on Netflix?

Production of the fourth and final season of the umbrella academy it is currently set to begin in February 2023, according to multiple production sources seen by What's on Netflix.

Another production resource reported that the series will shoot between Q2023 and Q2023 XNUMX, which could mean the series won't end until September XNUMX at the latest.

One source puts the show's budget between $7 and $000 per episode.

If we look at the production schedule for the third season, production preparation only started in October 2020, with filming starting several months later in February 2021. Filming ended on August 28, 2021. However , this may not be the best comparison. . , given that it was filmed during the height of the pandemic.

Seasons 1 and 2 of the show took around 5-6 months to develop and then another 6-8 months of post-production and localization before heading to Netflix.

Steve Blackman, executive producer of the umbrella academysaid that when it comes to producing each season of the umbrella academy it's been up to 18 months before its eventual release on Netflix, so that lines up.

In this case, our best estimate is that 4 season of the umbrella academy it will be released in the spring of 2024.

It's unclear if the deceased members of Sparrow Academy will return, as it's still unclear how much the Sir Reginald universe has changed.
