Robert Kirkman, the creator of the hit animated superhero drama Invincible has provided an update regarding the release date of Season 4. The third season of the animated superhero series, featuring Steven Yeun, J.K. Simmons, Gillian Jacobs, Mark Hamill, Seth Rogen, and more, premiered on Amazon Prime Video on February 6, 2025. Moreover, the new season has garnered praise from critics and audiences for its compelling story continuation from its predecessors.Invincible Season 4 release date could happen in 2026Invincible Season 4 was announced by the makers of the animated show before the release of Season 3. Now, the co-creator of the show has shared an update on the Invincible Season 4 release date with the fans.While talking to Discussing Film, Robert Kirkman assured viewers that the current release schedule “is much more what we can expect going forward as opposed to the release schedule that we were in between Season 1 and 2.” Thus, it has prompted the whole Invincible team to move at the same pace to release the next season on time.Kirkman further expressed that the team is working to get Season 4 out by 2026 and added, “I can’t guarantee that we’ll be coming back in early February every single year, but I can say that is the goal.”Additionally, Simon Racioppa, the showrunner of Invincible shared his thoughts on Invincible Season 4’s release. He stated, “Everybody’s working as hard as they can. We have a huge team of people. But it’s a big book, and it’s a big show. It takes a lot of people, and a lot of time, and effort to try and get it right. We want it out as soon as you guys too.”The animated show faced some criticism earlier for the split-release of its Season 2. Invincible Season 2 Part 1 debuted in November 2023, while Part 2 came out between March and April 2024.

There’s no denying the finale for Invincible Season 2 was the best yet — but creator Robert Kirkman has promised fans that Season 3 will take things further than ever before. “I think that there’s so many pieces that have been put in place in Season 2 that we’re going to build on in season three and so many different ways that we’re going to expand the show and push the show even further,” he said. His main goal? To make every episode of Invincible Season 3 feel like its own finale. “We want every [Season 3] episode to feel like it’s a finale. Season 3 is an absolutely huge season with so many crazy things that you won’t expect. And where we leave things at the end of Season 3… oh my god, I cannot wait for people to see that stuff,” said Kirkman. A fan on X/Twitter said, “If they can do sh*t like this every episode of Season 3. I will actually levitate to the heavens.”RelatedInvincible Season 2 ended with Mark brutally killing Levy in a scene straight from the comic that inevitably changes Mark’s storyline going forward.

Much Bigger Invincible Season 2 introduced a host of new characters and storylines, all of which will come into play for Season 3, according to Kirkman. "I think that there’s so many pieces that have been put in place in season two that we’re going to build on in season three and so many different ways that we’re going to expand the show and push the show even further," Kirkman said. Simon Racioppa, who runs the show along with Kirkman, also said “You’ve got some new cast members, new stories. We go [to] some crazy places. But we pick up everything that we left hanging in season two. All the emotional stories that you liked in season one and season two are continuing." Fans had to wait two years between the first and second seasons of Invincible –not to mention that Season 2 was released in two parts. However, Kirkman expects that Season 3 will come much sooner, as Prime Video ordered Seasons 2 and 3 at the same time in 2021. Invincible is streaming on Prime Video.

Summary The TV adaptation of another Robert Kirkman comic book failed to replicate the success of The Walking Dead and Invincible. The show was canceled after two seasons due to low ratings, despite a strong critical reception. Fox International Studios' early investment in the show's development and a high marketing budget may have contributed to unrealistic expectations and the show's ultimate failure. The Walking Dead and Invincible are two television phenomenons based on the comics by Robert Kirkman, but the writer has a third TV show that failed to match up. Kirkman’s career as a TV hitmaker was born in 2010 with the premiere of the zombie apocalypse series The Walking Dead, on which he served as executive producer. The show quickly became a ratings titan, pulling in millions of viewers and spawning numerous Walking Dead spinoff shows. Kirkman’s reputation only solidified with the 2021 release of Prime Video’s star-studded Invincible, for which he is credited as creator. Invincible and The Walking Dead are Kirkman’s most successful and longest-running comics, but the prolific writer has created numerous titles throughout his decades-long career, including Battle Pope, Oblivion Song, and Void Rivals. While the Invincible and Walking Dead shows seemingly imply that anything Kirkman touches turns to TV gold, one failed comic adaptation disproves this theory. A horror show that premiered on premium cable was Kirkman’s first foray into TV writing, but it struggled to replicate the success of his other adaptations. Outcast Was Based On A Robert Kirkman Comic Book In March 2013, it was announced that a new show based on a Robert Kirkman comic book was in development. The adaptation was unlike Kirkman’s smash hit The Walking Dead, which had already been on the air for three years, in two key ways: first, the show was confirmed to be

The first four episodes of Invincible Season 3 are now streaming on Prime Video, and fans are elated that the gap between Seasons 2 and 3 does not mirror that between Seasons 1 and 2. Invincible has been around in TV form for the better part of four years now, and while the show branched out a bit with things like the Atom Eve Special, it’s mostly remained focused on Mark (Steven Yeun). However, this may not be the case for much longer.The Invincible universe is ripe with potential for spinoffs, and now that the show has expanded into exploring interplanetary conflicts, one could argue that it’s becoming a bit too crowded to all fit into one singular series. There are plenty of characters like Nolan/Omni-Man (J.K. Simmons) who have a rich history beyond anything we’ve seen on screen, but Invincible‘s showrunner may have just teased who’s next in line to lead their own series.‘Invincible’s Simon Racioppa Wants To See an Immortal Spinoff Immortal is one of the few Guardians of the Globe members who can briefly hold his own in a fight against a Viltrumite. Image Credit: Prime Video.Agents of Fandom‘s own TJ Zwarych recently caught up with Invincible creator Robert Kirkman and showrunner Simon Racioppa ahead of Season 3, and he asked which character they would most like to see get the spinoff treatment. Kirkman responded with Rex Splode (Jason Mantzoukas) to “make things harder for Simon,” but Racioppa was quick to reveal his pick as Ross Marquand‘s Immortal. “Oh God, I would love to see Immortal. You could do such a great story with it, he’s been around for thousands of years. You could go back in time… He was young once! Wouldn’t it be great to see that? So yeah, Immortal, maybe he was a fun time.”–Invincible showrunner Simon Racioppa on Immortal’s spinoff potentialThere are plenty of Invincible characters who would certainly have no trouble leading an entertaining spinoff, but a deep dive into the history of Immortal showing how he got to be a member of the Guardians of the Globe is about as compelling as it gets. Marquand’s performance as Immortal has steadily improved throughout both seasons, especially with the inclusion of his love story with Dupli-Kate (Melise) in Season 2, and with a content well “thousands of years” deep to pull from, the potential for intriguing stories is endless.‘Invincible’ Season 3 Is a Worthy Follow-Up to Season 2Invincible Season 3 debuted last week to a perfect 100% score from critics on the aggregate site Rotten Tomatoes. This comes from a small sample size of 19 reviews at the time of writing, so it is subject to change, but it’s still something to get
