VERONICA MARS: Season Four is a Go!

By  | 

Last month, news leaked of a possible fourth season of Veronica Mars, and today Hulu confirmed the limited series for 2019.

Hulu announced the deal with these details:

  • Direct-to-Series order, 8 Episodes, from Warner Bros. Television. Veronica Mars will return as part of the Hulu Originals slate in 2019 alongside upcoming originals Ramy, Shrill, Four Weddings and a Funeral and Catch-22

  • As part of the deal, Hulu has also struck an agreement with Warner Bros. Domestic Television Distribution for SVOD rights to all past episodes of the original Veronica Mars. Fans can stream seasons 1-3, as well as the 2014 feature film, beginning in summer 2019.

The news first came from a tweet from lead actress Kristen Bell, and fans are always excited for the news.

Official Synopsis

Spring breakers are getting murdered in Neptune, thereby decimating the seaside town’s lifeblood tourist industry. After Mars Investigations is hired by the parents of one of the victims to find their son’s killer, Veronica is drawn into an epic eight-episode mystery that pits the enclave’s wealthy elites, who would rather put an end to the month-long bacchanalia, against a working class that relies on the cash influx that comes with being the West Coast’s answer to Daytona Beach.

It sounds like the series is a modified version of The Thousand-Dollar Tan Line, one of the original Veronica Mars novels written by series creator Rob Thomas. The story is great for Hulu, being edgier than the series was on either UPN or the CW.

With a year wait until the series hits the screen, it’s time to brush up on all forms of canon. How much with the series focus on Piz vs Logan; Wallace’s career at Neptune High; Weevil?
