Netflix Confirms 'Ozark' For Fourth And Final Season

PSA: Netflix has confirmed the fourth and final season of Ozark - and fans of the show are feeling all the emotions RN.

The critically acclaimed drama will return for its final leg with a fourth season split across two parts, each with seven episodes.

Netflix made the announcement this afternoon via the streaming service's official UK and Ireland Twitter account.

Naturally, fans of the series promptly went wild.

"Yes!! Best news ever!" enthused one.

"Can't flipping wait!" agreed another.

"Oh yes Marty better escape with all the cartel money," chimed in a third.

As yet, there's no date confirmed for the final season - so stay tuned for further details.

Happily, viewers can expect to see Chris Mundy return as showrunner, writer and executive producer.

As for the cast, the one and only Jason Bateman will be back on our screens. Alongside him, cast members Laura Linney, Julia Garner, Sofia Hublitz, Skylar Gaertner, Charlie Tahan and Lisa Emery will also return.

In a statement, Mundy said: "We're so happy Netflix recognized the importance of giving Ozark more time to end the Byrdes' saga right.

"It's been such a great adventure for all of us - both on screen and off - so we're thrilled to get the chance to bring it home in the most fulfilling way possible."

For those who need a recap, the drama follows Marty (Bateman), a Chicago-based financial planner and seemingly average family man, who becomes embroiled in laundering money for the Mexican drug cartel.

When his partner betrays the cartel and is killed, Marty promises the drug lords to repay the money his partner stole and wash $500 million in five years if him and his family can walk away with their lives.

With his wife Wendy (Laura Linney) and two kids, Charlotte (Sofia Hublitz) and Jonah (Skylar Gaertner), Marty relocates to the Ozarks, which he promises gang leaders will be fruitful for laundering.

Talking about the show, Netflix's vice president Cindy Holland commented: "Ozark is a gripping drama that has captivated audiences all around the world and garnered tremendous critical acclaim.

"We're so grateful to Chris, Jason, Laura, Julia and the entire cast and crew for all their tireless dedication to the show and can't wait to see how the Byrdes' journey comes to a close."

Exciting much? The return of Ozark can't come soon enough.
