After Life Season 4 Release Date Rumors: Is It Coming Out?

Created by written, produced, and directed by Ricky Gervais, After Life is a British black-comedy drama series streaming on Netflix. The plot revolves around Tony Johnson, a journalist for the local newspaper in the fictional town of Tambury, as he tries to come to terms with his grief in the aftermath of his wife’s death. Season 1 premiered on March 8, 2019, season 2 on April 24, 2019, and season 3 on January 14, 2022. If you are curious whether there will be a fourth season of the show, you have come to the right place.

Here’s all the After Life season 4 release date information we know so far, and all the details on if it is coming out.

Is there an After Life season 4 release date?

There is no After Life season 4 release date as the series has concluded after three seasons.

After Life is Gervais’ first show to receive three seasons. All his previous works — The Office (UK), Extras, and Derek — ended after two seasons. In a July 2020 interview with The Mirror, Gervais made it clear that the third season of After Life would also be the final one.

“I’ve already made my mind up there won’t be a four,” the writer-actor said. “And you do put those things out there to make you remember as it’s tempting but… there’s an old saying that ‘to lead the orchestra, you’ve got to turn your back on the audience.’ That’s true. The audience think they want another one, but they’re not sure. So you’ve got to be careful.”

This was confirmed by Netflix in the weeks leading to the season 3 premiere in a Twitter (now known as X) post. The series ends on a hopeful note, accentuating the very theme of the series: life goes on. In the final scene, the audience sees Tony walking with his dog Brandy in a field. His late wife Lisa briefly walks alongside him before disappearing again, followed by the dog, and eventually Tony himself disappears.

Asked by Radio Times in January 2022 whether there was a possibility for season 4, Gervais said, “Never say never. You never know what’s going to happen. But at the moment, I’m 99% sure this should be it. I don’t think I can top that ending. And it’s not the end. It’s there forever. It’ll always be around. People are watching it for the 10th time. And hopefully, they’re going to be watching it when I’m dead. I think it’s the right decision [to leave it there]. In 10 years’ time, I think I’ll be proved right.”

The cast includes Ricky Gervais as Tony Johnson, Tom Basden as Matt Braden, Tony Way as Lenny, Diane Morgan as Kath, Mandeep Dhillon as Sandy, Kerry Godliman as Lisa Johnson, Ashley Jensen as Emma, Paul Kaye as Psychiatrist, Penelope Wilton as Anne, Joe Wilkinson as Pat, Roisin Conaty as Daphne / “Roxy,” Colin Hoult as Ken Otley, Kath Hughes as Coleen, and more.
