The future of The Orville is becoming a bit more clear. The sci-fi comedy-drama series’ third season was released in Summer 2022, and the show’s fate has been up in the air, in part because it takes a long time to film. The series has yet to be officially cancelled or renewed for a fourth year on Hulu.
Starring creator Seth MacFarlane, Scott Grimes, Adrianne Palicki, Penny Johnson Jerald, Peter Macon, J Lee, Mark Jackson, Jessica Szohr, and Anne Winters, The Orville series follows the crew of the USS Orville on their travels through space 400 years in the future. It was heavily inspired by Star Trek: The Next Generation. and ran for two seasons before moving to Hulu.
At Creation Entertainment’s ST-LV: Trek to Vegas Convention over the weekend, Grimes (above) revealed that production would begin in January or February.
The Wrap added the following:
No official announcement has been made by the show’s previous home of Hulu, or from the broader Disney company. However, Orville fan podcast “Planetary Union Network” confirmed the news on Reddit, citing members of the production team. The podcast has had a history of members of the production breaking news through the show. Those behind the podcast also cautioned that Season 2 of Seth MacFarlane’s Ted series for Peacock would be filming first and that Orville sets needed to be rebuilt following the long hiatus.
The premiere date for season four of The Orville will be announced later.
