Apple TV+'s sci-fi drama Invasion has captivated fans with its high-stakes storytelling, international reach, and emotional exploration of what an alien invasion would be like from various parts of the world.
Following the third season finale, fans are now wondering — is there going to be an Invasion Season 4? Here's all we know so far regarding renewal news, the potential storyline, and what could happen next for the show.
So far, Apple TV+ has not formally renewed Invasion for Season 4. The streaming network has maintained silence regarding the future of the series after Season 3 concluded.
Still, fans hold onto hope, considering the series has established a consistent fan base and keeps being talked about due to its bold approach to science fiction storytelling.
The creators of the show, Simon Kinberg (X-Men, The Martian), and David Weil have shown willingness to extend the narrative beyond Season 3.
During earlier interviews, Kinberg had stated that he sees Invasion as a long-term series with several story arcs where, in addition to humanity surviving, he also wants to explore how humans cope emotionally and socially in a new world.
If Apple TV+ experiences high viewership rates and audience appetite, there is a strong possibility the show could be revived.
Apple has indicated it will support extended storytelling in the past with series such as For All Mankind and Foundation, both of which are set in science fiction environments.
Invasion is famous for interweaving several plot threads simultaneously, presenting the alien invasion from multiple angles — from scientists and soldiers, to families and common folk in uncommon circumstances.
If Invasion season 4 is in the works, it would probably continue to explore how humanity picks up the pieces after years of waging war against the alien threat.
Season 3 left more questions than answers regarding the aliens' real agendas and if the war is indeed over.
A new season could also penetrate further into the backstories of the invaders and how humans are transforming to adapt to this new world.
We could also get to experience the emotional arcs of well-known characters in coping with life after the invasion.
The series' strength has ever been balancing large-scale sci-fi events with small, personal narratives, and that's one thing fans are hoping will endure.
Although the official list of cast members for Invasion season 4 has yet to be released, it's likely that all the main characters would return if the show is renewed.
Actors such as Golshifteh Farahani, Shamier Anderson, Shioli Kutsuna, and India Brown have been central to the plot and are likely to carry on their storylines.
Every season to date has brought some new angles and new characters, so a hypothetical fourth season could continue to grow even more, depicting how the rest of the world is dealing in the aftermath of the alien war.
Because there's no official word yet, it's too soon to tell when Invasion season 4 will be released.
If it gets renewed in the near future, however, then viewers might find themselves getting a new season in late 2026, following the show's past production schedules.
The interval between previous seasons was around a year, although that could vary due to shoot schedules and visual effects.
Regardless of whether Invasion season 4 materializes, Invasion has already established itself as one of Apple TV+'s most ambitious sci-fi series.
Its epic reach across the globe, emotional depth, and cinematographic visuals have differentiated it from a standard alien invasion drama.
For now, viewers can only wait for Apple TV+ to make an official statement.
