Acclaimed thriller Killing Eve will end with its upcoming fourth season -but producers are also working to develop potential spinoffs to extend the world created in the series.
The series is based on the “Villanelle” novels by Luke Jennings and follows a British Intelligence operative who engages in a game of cat and mouse with an international assassin.
It was renewed for a fourth season of eight episodes in January 2020, but filming was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Production on Season 4 is now slated to begin mid year in the U.K. and locations across Europe.
“Killing Eve has been one of my greatest experiences and I look forward to diving back into Eve’s remarkable mind soon,” said Sandra Oh. “I’m so grateful for all cast and crew who have brought our story to life and to the fans who have joined us and will be back for our exciting and unpredictable fourth and final season.”
“Killing Eve has been the most extraordinary journey and one that I will be forever grateful for,” said Jodie Comer. “Thank you to all the fans who’ve supported us throughout and come along for the ride. Although all good things come to an end, it’s not over yet. We aim to make this one to remember!”
Laura Neal will serve as the head writer, showrunner, and executive producer on Season 4 in keeping with the show’s tradition of naming a new head writer each season.
“We have been unbelievably blessed to work with extraordinary human beings throughout the life of Killing Eve,” said executive producer Sally Woodward Gentle. “From the magical Phoebe, to the delectable Emerald, Suzanne and now Laura, headed by the super-powers of Sandra, Jodie, Fiona (Shaw) and Kim (Bodnia), and with brilliantly talented directors and crew. No one knew what an adventure we were embarking on and there’s so much more to come. Buckle up!”

Two seasons would have been sufficient. The last season was a mess.
I second that ,I went through season 1 and a few of season 2,I won’t be back and as for spinoffs well better to let sleeping dogs lie.
The story lines are getting silly. Should have finished after the last season.
This has had some brilliant moments, but it feels right to end with the fourth season. I’ve really enjoyed it.
