Megan Mullally, Nick Offerman and David Cross have joined the cast of the forth – and last – season of the Netflix hit series Umbrella Academy.
Offerman and Mullally, who are married in real life, will play Drs. Gene and Jean Thibodeau “a married pair of community college professors from New Mexico who wear sensible footwear and suffer from the most extreme case of deja vu this timeline has ever seen.”
Cross will star as Sy Grossman, “an upstanding, shy business owner and family man desperate to reconnect with his estranged daughter, who will stop at nothing to get her back.”
Elliot Page, Tom Hopper, David Castañeda, Emmy Raver-Lampman, Robert Sheehan, Aidan Gallagher, Justin H. Min, Ritu Arya and Colm Feore are all set to return to the final season. Steve Blackman will also return as Executive Producer and showrunner. Jesse McKeown, Mike Richardson, Keith Goldberg, Scott Stuber, and Beau Bauman will also be executive producers, while Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá will be returning as co-executive producers. Production on the fourth season of The Umbrella Academy is currently underway in Toronto.
The show is based on the graphic novels of the same name written by Gerard Way and illustrated by Gabriel Bá. It follows a family of adopted siblings with superpowers who find themselves trying to stop the end of the world.
