Fans of Apple TV+’s popular drama series, The Morning Show can rejoice as there is an update on the status of the fourth season which has recently gone into production. The show received an early renewal in April 2023, five months before the premiere of season 3. Check out all the details about The Morning Show Season 4 release date and more.

Starring formidable talents like Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston, the show offers an inside look at the fictional news network, UBA, and the personal and professional lives of its employees. With over 50 award nominations for three seasons, the show has been a standout on Apple TV+ since its debut in 2019.

Season 3 introduced a new character, billionaire Paul Marks (Jon Hamm), whose involvement with UBA’s financial troubles and romantic entanglements has left viewers eager to see what lies ahead for their beloved characters in the next instalment of the Apple TV series.

Now with actor Mark Duplass, who plays Chip Black in the show, recently confirming that filming for season 4 will start in July, we take a look at everything we know so far about The Morning Show season 4, from its release date to the potential plot.

The plot for the upcoming season has not been officially revealed by the streamer yet, however, the cast and crew have hinted at potential directions the story could take. 

Bradley’s future as a journalist remains uncertain, with Reese Witherspoon unable to confirm if her character will end up in jail. “Everybody keeps asking me if Bradley’s in jail,” Witherspoon said in a press conference moderated by Deadline adding, “I don’t know if I’m in trouble.”

The aftermath of the merger of the two media companies, UBA and NBN, is expected to be a central focus, raising questions about job security and the survival of certain programs. Alex’s (Aniston) new role and increased iNFLuence within the media company may also be explored as teased in the season 3 finale. The repercussions of Bradley’s cover-up involving her brother’s actions at the U.S. Capitol are likely to continue shaping the narrative.

Showrunner Charlotte Stoudt mentioned in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that the writing process for season 4 has begun, promising that the events of season 3 will have significant impacts on all characters. 

The show will continue to draw inspiration from real-life events, as it has done since its inception.

Reese Witherspoon’s Bradley Jackson and Jennifer Aniston’s Alex Levy should be back for season 4. The two actors are also executive producers of the series.

Billy Crudup’s Cory Ellison, Mark Duplass’ Chip Black, Greta Lee’s Stella Bak, Karen Pittman’s Mia Jordan and Nestor Carbonell’s Yanko Flores are all also likely to reprise their roles in The Morning Show season 4.

Also, the UBS/NBN merger storyline may bring about more screen time for Elizabeth Perkins, who appeared as NBN president, Elena, in season 3. Chris Hunter, portrayed by Nicole Beharie, was being pursued by a Sports media network in season 3, so there is a possibility that she may not return for season 4. Even Paul Marks, played by Jon Hamm, may not have a significant storyline in upcoming seasons, but there is potential for his character to reappear, either seeking retribution for his UBS deal falling apart or as a subject on one of the news shows. 

Julianna Margulies, who plays Laura Peterson, one of NBN’s star anchors and Bradley’s love interest, declined the opportunity to appear in season 4, so she will not be seen in the upcoming season for sure. 

The cast will also see new additions, with Jeremy Irons set to play Martin Levy, Alex’s father and Marion Cotillard joining as Celine Dumont, a “savvy operator from a storied European family,” as reported by Deadline.
