Netflix has set a June premiere date for the 4th and final season of teen drama ‘13 Reasons Why‘, along with releasing a “goodbye” video featuring the cast’s final table read.
Based on the best-selling books by Jay Asher, Season 1 followed teenager Clay Jensen as he returns home from school to find a mysterious box with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker – his classmate and crush – who tragically committed suicide two weeks earlier. On tape, Hannah explains that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life.
Season 2 picked up in the aftermath of Hannah’s death and the start of the characters’ complicated journeys toward healing and recovery, whilst Season 3 saw Clay under police scrutiny after the disappearance of a football player. In the 4th and final season, Liberty High School’s Senior Class prepares for graduation. But before they say goodbye, they’ll have to keep a dangerous secret buried and face heartbreaking choices that could impact their futures forever.

In the final season the cast is joined by Gary Sinise (‘Apollo 13’, ‘CSI: NY’, ‘Forrest Gump’) as Dr. Robert Ellman, a compassionate, incisive, no-nonsense adolescent and family therapist who works to help Clay Jensen (Minnette) battle anxiety, depression and grief. Also joining the cast is Jan Luis Castellanos (‘Runaways’) as Diego Torres, a charismatic, aggressive and fiercely loyal leader of a divided football team struggling to understand the loss of one of their own.
