has confirmed that Netflix’s popular anime series will conclude with Season 4 which is set to air next month, followed by a possible new series taking place in the same universe that would introduce fans to a brand-new cast of characters.
Castlevania Season 1 began in 2017 and consisted of only four episodes, followed by an eight-episode second season in 2018 and a ten-episode third season in 2020. The series has gained immense praise over its run and was a key evolution piece in Netflix’s original programming, becoming the first original anime series and the second adult animated comedy after F Is For Family.
Season 2 of the Warren Ellis written-and-produced series was granted 100% on Rotten Tomatoes and even brought home an IGN award for Best Animated TV Series in 2018. Ellis, however, who did have at a time have a Season 4 script for Castlevania completed, has had no further involvement in the series or spin-off after his sexual misconduct allegations, that of which he firmly denied.
Not much information has been released for the potential spin-off series aside from the plan to debut entirely new characters, but if the success of Castlevania is anything to take note of it is going to be a wild ride.
Season 4 of Castlevania will consist of ten episodes and debut on Netflix on May 13, so don’t miss it, and stay tuned to Collider for any more upcoming information.
