‘Lost In Space’: Will There Be a Season 4?

Lost In Space fans have waited nearly two years to catch up with the Robinsons. And now that Season 3 is here, many wonder if the Netflix series is getting a fourth season.

‘Lost In Space’ Season 3 is finally here

There’s tons of danger lurking for Will Robinson (Maxwell Jenkins) on season 3 of Lost In Space. The sci-fi adventure picks up with the Robinson family’s interstellar journey as they try to reunite while facing their biggest challenges yet. 

The new season premiered on Netflix on Dec. 1, almost 2 years after season 2, which hit the streamer in December 2019. Unfortunately, the new, eight-episode installment is shorter than the last two ten-episode seasons. 

Will there be a ‘Lost In Space’ Season 4?

Fans may have hoped for more seasons after waiting for so long to see the riveting space adventure. But unfortunately, Lost In Space was canceled by Netflix and will wrap up its story with the season 3 finale.

Fans may be disappointed in the news. But according to showrunner Zack Estrin, Lost In Space was mapped out as a three-season series from the get-go.

“From the beginning, we’ve always viewed this particular story of The Robinsons as a trilogy,” he said in a March 2020 statement. “A three-part epic family adventure with a clear beginning, middle, and end.”

“It’s also worth noting that, with what these characters go through just trying to survive each episode,” he added. “If anyone deserves to catch their breath before their next mission, it’s Will, Penny, Judy, Maureen, John, Don West, Dr. Smith… and The Robot. And, of course, Debbie the Chicken.”

Ted Biaselli, the Director of Original Series at Netflix, said the streamer was thrilled to share the last chapter of the Robinson family journey with viewers and give them an epic finale.  

“We’re especially thankful to Zack Estrin, Matt Sazama, Burk Sharpless, Kevin Burns, and Jon Jashni for helming Lost in Space, which has brought viewers a premium action-packed and visually spectacular series that the whole family can enjoy together,” Biaselli said. “And we can’t wait for our family audiences to see where Season 3 will lead!”

Season 3 will serve as the end to the series

The first two seasons of Lost In Space brought the Robinson family to new planets and introduced them to new fascinating species. The last episode of the third season will serve as a series finale and conclude their adventure at Netflix.  The Lost In Space Season 3 synopsis teases:

In the third and final season of Lost in Space, the stakes are higher than ever, and the Robinson family’s survival instincts will be put to the ultimate test. After a year of being trapped on a mysterious planet, Judy, Penny, Will, and the Robot must lead the 97 young Colonists in a harrowing evacuation — but not before secrets are unearthed that will change their lives forever. Meanwhile, John and Maureen — with Don at their side — must battle overwhelming odds as they try to reunite with their kids. The Robinsons will have to grapple with the emotional challenge of not just being lost — but being separated from the ones they love… as they face the greatest alien threat yet.
