The Legend of Vox Machina Season 4: Latest updates on release date, cast, and plot details
Alright, Critical Role fans, let's talk about The Legend of Vox Machina Season 4! If you're anything like me, you've been riding the high of Season 3's epic finale and are dying to know what's next for our favorite ragtag adventurers. Amazon Prime Video's animated gem, born from the Dungeons & Dragons chaos of Critical Role's first campaign, has us all hooked. So, let's dive into the latest scoop on Season 4's release date, who's in the cast, and what the plot might have in store. When Can We Expect Season 4 to Hit Our Screens?
Big news dropped on October 23, 2024, when Amazon gave the green light for Season 4, right before Season 3 wrapped up. But, as of now, there's no official release date. Bummer, right? Let's piece together what we know from the show's history to make a guess. Season 1 kicked off on January 28, 2022.
Season 2 rolled out almost exactly a year later, on January 20, 2023.
Season 3 took a bit longer, landing on October 3, 2024—about 20 months after Season 2. Those pesky 2023 Hollywood strikes probably slowed things down.
So, what's the deal for Season 4? The animation wizards at Titmouse Inc. need time to work their magic, and that's no quick feat. My bet's on a release sometime between late 2025 and mid-2026. Who's Back for the Vox Machina Crew?
The heart of The Legend of Vox Machina is its cast, and let's be real—the Critical Role gang brings these characters to life like no one else could. Based on everything we know, the main squad is coming back for Season 4: Laura Bailey as Vex'ahlia, the sharp-witted half-elf ranger who's always got a plan (and a bear).
Liam O'Brien as Vax'ildan, her rogue twin who's got a knack for heartbreak.
Taliesin Jaffe as Percy de Rolo, the gunslinger with a dark past and a fancy coat.
Ashley Johnson as Pike Trickfoot, the pint-sized cleric with a giant heart.
Marisha Ray as Keyleth, the druid who's still finding her footing as a leader.
Sam Riegel as Scanlan Shorthalt, the bard who's equal parts ridiculous and loyal.
Travis Willingham as Grog Strongjaw, the big guy with an even bigger love for ale and axes.
Matthew Mercer juggling Trinket (Vex's bear buddy) and a ton of NPCs, because of course he does.
No word yet on new voices joining the mix, but if Season 4 introduces fresh faces—or foes—we might hear some surprise casting. The Season 3 finale shook things up with the team splitting off, so I'm curious to see how the cast handles those changes. One thing's for sure: this crew's chemistry is pure gold. What's the Story for Season 4? (Spoilers Ahead!)
Okay, if you haven't finished Season 3, turn back now because we're diving into spoiler territory!
The Season 3 finale was a wild ride. Vox Machina took down Orthax and the Chroma Conclave, but victory came with a cost. The gang split up to chase their own paths: Scanlan hit the road with his daughter Kaylie for a father-daughter world tour.
Vax tagged along with Keyleth to the Fire Ashari for her Aramenté trials.
Percy and Vex, now officially a power couple, headed to Whitestone with Gilmore for some Winter's Crest festivities.
Pike and Grog? They're just out to cause some glorious chaos.
But then, boom—the final scene dropped a massive hint about what's next: The Whispered One (aka Vecna, but with a copyright-friendly name). His creepy cult, the Remnants, is scheming to bring him back by snatching souls. If you know Critical Role's campaign, you're probably screaming 'Vecna arc!' right now. Season 4 is likely to dive into this storyline, with Vox Machina reuniting to face a lich so powerful he makes dragons look like lizards.
What can we expect? Here's my take: Huge Fights : Think battles in wild places like an underwater volcano or a city full of undead dwarves. The original campaign went big, and the show will too.
Character Growth : Keyleth's trials are a big deal, and Vax's deal to save Percy might come back to haunt him. Plus, those relationships—Vax and Keyleth, Percy and Vex, Scanlan and Kaylie—are gonna tug at our heartstrings.
New Baddies: The Remnants are up to no good, and their soul-stealing rituals sound like bad news for our heroes.
The show's writers have a knack for tweaking the campaign to fit TV, so expect some surprises while keeping the core of the story intact. I'm already hyped for the emotional punches and ridiculous one-liners.

Is ‘Sneaky Pete' returning for season 4? Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on July 29, 2025, 18:30 IST Last updated July 29, 2025, 11:19 IST Fans of Sneaky Pete , the slick crime drama that hooked viewers with its clever cons and twisty plots, are still holding out hope for a fourth season. The show, starring Giovanni Ribisi as the charismatic con man Marius Josipović, left audiences on the edge of their seats when it wrapped up its third season in 2019. But with no official word on a continuation, what's the deal? Here's a deep dive into whether Sneaky Pete Season 4 is happening and everything known so far. The Story So Far: A Quick Recap Sneaky Pete follows Marius, a con artist fresh out of prison, who assumes the identity of his cellmate, Pete Murphy, to dodge a dangerous gangster. By 'reuniting' with Pete's estranged family, the Bernhardts, Marius gets tangled in their messy, secretive world. The show, co-created by Bryan Cranston and David Shore, blends dark humor, high-stakes cons, and family drama. Over three seasons, it earned a loyal fanbase with a 96% critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes and an 8/10 on IMDb. The third season, released on May 10, 2019, ended with some closure but left plenty of loose ends. Marius nearly revealed his true identity to the Bernhardts, only for Otto to stop him, saying, 'It doesn't matter, you're family.' Meanwhile, Julia faced legal trouble, and the Bernhardts' bail bond business was at risk after Lizzie's betrayal. Fans were left wondering: would Marius ever come clean? What happens to Julia's court case? And where's the real Pete? Why Was Sneaky Pete Cancelled? Amazon Prime Video pulled the plug on Sneaky Pete in June 2019, just weeks after Season 3 dropped. No official reason was given, which left fans frustrated and speculating. Several factors likely played a role: Shifting Priorities at Amazon : Around 2019, Amazon began focusing on big-budget blockbusters like The Boys and Lord of the Rings . Sneaky Pete , despite strong reviews, didn't fit their new 'blockbuster model.' Declining Viewership : While Season 1 was a hit, viewership reportedly dipped in later seasons. Amazon doesn't share detailed streaming data, but reports suggest Sneaky Pete wasn't a major money-maker despite being the second-most-watched original in 2017. Creative Changes: The departure of showrunner Graham Yost after Season 2 led to a tonal shift in Season 3 under Blake Masters. Some fans and critics noted a drop in quality, with Season 3 feeling less cohesive than the first two. Despite the cancellation, the show's passionate fanbase took to platforms like Reddit to express their disappointment, with many calling it one of Amazon's best originals. Is Season 4 Happening on Amazon or Elsewhere? As of July 2025, there's no confirmed Sneaky Pete Season 4 release date, and Amazon has not reversed its cancellation decision. The chances of a revival on Amazon seem slim, as the studio has shown no signs of revisiting the series. However, there's a glimmer of hope. In July 2025, Netflix picked up all three seasons of Sneaky Pete for streaming in the U.S., marking the first time the show has been available outside Prime Video. This move, driven by Sony Pictures Television's ownership of the rights, has sparked speculation about a potential revival. While Netflix hasn't announced plans for a fourth season, the platform's history of reviving canceled shows ( Lucifer , Designated Survivor ) keeps the door slightly ajar.

Shogun Season 2: Release date rumors, cast updates and what to expect next
By Aman Shukla Published on July 29, 2025, 18:00 IST Last updated July 29, 2025, 10:58 IST The historical drama Shogun took the world by storm in 2024, captivating audiences with its rich storytelling, stunning visuals, and unforgettable performances. After its massive success, FX and Hulu confirmed that the series, originally billed as a limited series, will return for a second and even a third season. Fans are buzzing with excitement, eager to dive back into the intricate world of feudal Japan. Here's everything known so far about Shogun Season 2, including release date speculation, cast updates, and what might unfold in the next chapter. When is Shogun Season 2 releasing? Alright, let's get the big question out of the way: when's Season 2 dropping? No official date has been pinned down yet, and that's driving us all a bit nuts. Word is, filming kicks off in Vancouver in January 2026. If you remember, Season 1 took its sweet time in post-production to nail those gorgeous shots and historical vibes, so we're probably looking at early 2027 for the premiere. Some folks are guessing a February 2027 release to match the first season's vibe, but don't be shocked if it slides to late summer or even September 2027. No trailer yet, either—makes sense since they haven't started shooting. The writers, led by Justin Marks and Rachel Kondo, finished scripting all 10 episodes earlier this year, so things are chugging along. Just gotta sit tight for now. Who's coming back for Shogun Season 2? The cast is where things get juicy. Some of our faves are locked in, but others? Well, their stories wrapped up in ways that make a comeback tricky. Here's the scoop: Hiroyuki Sanada is back as Lord Yoshii Toranaga Cosmo Jarvis returns as John Blackthorne Now, for the heartbreakers: Anna Sawai as Mariko? Her gut-wrenching arc in Season 1 probably means she's not coming back. That finale still stings. Tadanobu Asano as Yabushige? Yeah, that guy's wild ride ended in a way that makes a return unlikely. But here's a curveball: Takehiro Hira as Ishido Kazunari might show up again. Even though history says his real-life counterpart bit the dust, Hira dropped a cryptic hint in an interview about his character maybe sticking around—and even dying—in Season 2. That's got fans buzzing about how the show might rewrite history. New characters are definitely on the way, though no names have been announced. The team's working with historians to bring in fresh faces that fit the era, so expect some surprises. What to expect in Shogun Season 2? Season 1 covered all of James Clavell's 1975 novel, so Season 2 is a whole new beast—an original story set 10 years later. Picture this: Toranaga's now shogun, ruling Japan, but it's not all smooth sailing. Drawing from the real-life Tokugawa Ieyasu, we might see him crushing rivals, dodging betrayals, or even facing off in a big battle like Sekigahara (which got a nod in Season 1). The showrunners love throwing curveballs, so even history nerds won't see everything coming. Blackthorne's still stuck in Japan, with his ship long gone. His real-life inspiration, William Adams, became a key advisor to the shogun, so expect more of him navigating this strange, intense world. His back-and-forth with Toranaga—part respect, part clash—will probably be the heart of the season. Oh, and there's talk of a big love story! Justin Marks teased that it's a major part of Season 2, but with Mariko gone, who's it gonna involve? A new character? Someone we already know? That's one mystery we're dying to solve.
