Fourth Season of Castlevania Will Be Its Last

Deadline reports that the fourth season of the animated Netflix series Castlevania, which premieres May 13, will be its last. However, Netflix is planning to create a new series set in the same universe with new characters.

The series debuted in July 2017 as Netflix’s first original anime series. It had critical praise, with the second season getting a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes and an IGN Award for Best Animated TV series in 2018. It was created by Warren Ellis, who also wrote and executive produced. Ellis was accused of sexual misconduct last year but has denied the claims. However, he already finished his work on the season before the accusations were made and likely won’t be involved with any new series.

The series features the voices of Richard Armitage, James Callis, Emily Swallow, Matt Frewer, Tony Amendola and Alejandra Reynoso. Other executive producers include Kevin Kolde, Fred Seibert and Adi Shankar.

Netflix has also released a teaser for the fourth season, which you can see below.
