TVLine

The acclaimed BBC America spy drama starring Sandra Oh and Jodie Comer has been picked up for a fourth season ahead of its Season 3 premiere this spring. “How could we not have massive confidence in Killing Eve? It has won big in every major award show and is the highest growing show on U.S. television for six years,” AMC Networks Entertainment Group president Sarah Barnett said in a statement. “The reason for this series’ emphatic embrace is the brilliant women who breathed it into being: Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Emerald Fennell, Sandra Oh, Jodie Comer, Fiona Shaw and it’s fairy godmother, executive producer Sally Woodward Gentle. Season 3 lead writer Suzanne Heathcote takes Eve, Villanelle and Carolyn to places more thrilling, twisted and surprising than ever. Our addicted fans will not be disappointed.” Season 4 is expected to have the show's fourth different female showrunner, who will be announced as Heathcote's successor at a later date.
