We now know when the hit crime show’s final season premieres.
Ozark fans on tenterhooks since the third season’s shocking finale can rest a little easier now in the knowledge that they can catch up with the Byrdes and their money-laundering escapades soon.
Netflix has revealed that the first part of the hit crime show’s fourth and final season will land on the streamer on 21 January, 2022.
It had previously been announced that, for Ozark’s final season, the show has had its episode order bumped from its traditional ten episodes to 14 in order to wrap up its storylines.
However, the 14 episodes will be split into two parts consisting of seven episodes, with the second half being released at a later date.
For those who are unaware, Ozark centres on Marty Byrde (Jason Bateman), a financial advisor who drags his wife Wendy (Laura Linney) and kids from Chicago to the Missouri Ozarks, where he must launder money to appease a Mexican drug cartel.
Yet, it isn’t long before the Byrdes find themselves entangled with the local criminals of their new region too.
Thanks to its complex characters, twists and turns and darkly ominous tone, Ozark has grown since its first season in 2017 into becoming one of Netflix’s most popular shows.
Along with confirming the fourth’s season’s premiere date, Netflix also released some tense new footage from the final batch of episodes, over which Jason Bateman’s Marty can be heard reflecting on his choices to date.
You can watch the teaser below.
