Quentin and the gang will be back for a 4th Season it has been announced, as ‘The Magicians‘ get renewed for a new series.
Based upon Lev Grossman’s best-selling books, ‘The Magicians’ stars Jason Ralph (‘A Most Violent Year,’ ‘Aquarius’) as Quentin Coldwater, a brilliant grad student who enrols in Brakebills College for Magical Pedagogy, a secret upstate New York University specializing in magic. He and his 20-something friends soon discover that the magical fantasy world they read about as children is all too real – and poses a grave danger to humanity. Stella Maeve (‘Chicago P.D.’), Hale Appleman (‘Teeth’), Arjun Gupta (‘Nurse Jackie’) and Summer Bishil (‘Towelhead,’ ‘Lucky 7’) also star.
It’s not exactly a big shock to see the show being renewed, as it’s performing incredibly well for it’s US commisioning network Syfy, especially in the coveted 18-49 demographic.
Over here, in the UK, we’re still waiting for 5Star to schedule Season 3… When it does eventually return, we see the action pick up a little after the Season 2 finale cliffhanger. As it did in Season 2, the show is taking a major turn once again, as magic is gone. Our intrepid group of heroes are now on an epic journey to restore that power back to the world.
We still don’t have a date yet for ‘The Magicians‘ Season 3 on 5Star, but keep an eye on the UK TV Air Dates page for all the latest news.
