INVINCIBLE Renewed for Season 5 at Prime Video
Reaching season five is a truly heroic feat for a TV series in our day and age. And so, we have to congratulate Invincible for its season five renewal on Prime Video. It's no true surprise that Invincible will see its fifth season—after all, season three of Invincible is Prime Video's most-watched Animation season of all time, and the biggest returning season of all time across all Prime Video's Adult Animation Originals. Still, Invincible season four hasn't even aired yet, and the show has already secured its season five renewal. That truly does make it Invincible. Invincible, of course, is based on an award-winning comic book series by Robert Kirkman. It follows the adventures and misadventures of Mark Grayson, who must navigate both his teenage status and his heroic status, as he strives to become Earth's greatest defender. Invincible is a funny, dark, bloody, and irreverent series. It really is an animated superhero show like no other. And we recommend it as a double feature with The Boys. Invincible stars an incredible line-up of talent, which includees: Steven Yeun, Sandra Oh, and J.K. Simmons, Invincible's voice cast also includes Seth Rogen, Walton Goggins, Gillian Jacobs, Jason Mantzoukas, Zazie Beetz, Grey DeLisle, Zachary Quinto, Chris Diamantopoulos, Ross Marquand, Khary Payton, Andrew Rannells, Kevin Michael Richardson, Ben Schwartz, Clancy Brown, Jay Pharoah, Mark Hamill, and Melise Jow. We're sure these folks and more will return for season five of Invincible. The series is produced by Skybound Entertainment's animation studio Skybound Animation.

Amazon Renews ‘Invincible' for Season 5 While You're Still Waiting for Season 4
Today, Prime Video announced that Invincible has been renewed for a fifth season, giving fans even more reason to stay alive long enough to not only witness its already confirmed fourth season, with the promise that more of co-creator Robert Kirkman's cult-classic Image Comics series is in the chamber, ready to be unloaded onto the streamer. The news that Invincible has been renewed for a fifth season shouldn't come as a surprise to fans. During the Season 3 press tour, Robert Kirkman boldly declared that he and Skybound Entertainment plan to release new seasons of Invincible every year until the series fully adapts his 2000s superhero comic book. At San Diego Comic-Con (thanks, GamesRadar+), while discussing the renewal for season four, Kirkman estimated that the show could ideally have around eight seasons or more if Prime Video is willing to indulge them. 'I mean, that sounds ridiculous. A lot of shows don't last that long. The Walking Dead got to go 11 seasons, which is kind of crazy,' Kirkman said. 'So I don't know. I mean, I'm really just focusing on adapting the comic in the most faithful, interesting, enhancing way possible. And so we'll see what it ends up being.' While the declaration came with some tepid worry online over whether the show's animators would be able to match the output of the show and maintain (or exceed) its level of animation quality, today's news will likely comfort fans who felt pointedly afflicted by the gap between its first and second seasons as well as season 2's infamous break between its final stretch of episodes. Tough feelings aside, Prime Video chose not to dwell on those bad vibes. Instead, it celebrated the merriment of its season 5 reveal by sharing a video of its voice cast reacting to the news of its renewal, accompanied by a series of guffaws at how its renewal is a sign of the show's rip-roaring success. Season 5, Mark… this is GOOD NEWS — INVINCIBLE (@InvincibleHQ) July 17, 2025In a press release announcing that Invincible's fifth season is still a long way off, Prime Video praised the show's third season. They highlighted that it was the biggest returning season in Prime Video's original adult animated series catalog. The streamer also celebrated the numerous award nominations the series has received, including Best Animated Series nominations at the Critics' Choice Awards and Emmy nominations. Additionally, Invincible has earned a Certified Fresh ranking on Rotten Tomatoes, making it instantly appealing to those who value reviews at a glance from the site. In io9's review for Invincible Season 3, we walked away liking more than we disliked about the show, celebrating its discernment for leaving parts of the comic book on the cutting room floor, and being completely enamored with Jeffrey Dean Morgan's arrival as Conquest while being a tad less enamored with its violence losing its oomph and Atom Eve becoming the series' Green Lantern in the worst way possible (save for its season finale). Regardless, everything is coming up Viltrumite for Invincible. In addition to future seasons being locked in, fans can also look forward to Invincible VS—a tag fighting game from Skybound Games and Quarter Up, the former developers behind Killer Instinct. With all these future Invincible projects waiting in the wings, here's hoping its comic adaptation soars to even greater animated heights than its past seasons. Invincible is streaming on Prime Video. Want more io9 news?
