It's the end of an era!
The ‘Insecure’ Cast Did One Last Red Carpet Together, and We’re Trying Not to Cry
The final season of Insecure drops on HBO and HBO Max Sunday, October 24, and before we say goodbye to Issa, Molly, and Lawrence, the cast did one last red carpet together. The pictures are hella heartwarming.
Season five of Insecure (affectionately nicknamed Season Byeve by Issa Rae ) promises to be an emotional roller coaster, with the trailer showing grown-up Issa talking to her younger self in the mirror. Before you cry watching the season, check out how the cast celebrated five seasons of filming together at the Los Angeles premiere.
Let’s start with Issa Rae, who’s no stranger to the red carpet. For her look at the celebration of the final season of her award-winning show, she opted for a trendy cross-wrap halter dress in beige-gold tones, complete with fringe trim.

HBO announced the end of Insecure on January 13. “Issa has turned insecurity into an iconic form of comedy,” said Amy Gravitt, executive vice president of HBO programming, in a statement, per Variety . “The show is as incisive as it is heartfelt, and it has resonated strongly with its audience because of the deeply personal work that Issa, Prentice, Melina, the cast, and the writers have put into it. This talented team has conceived a brilliant final season for Insecure, and we look forward to having many more stories to tell with this singular group of collaborators.”
