The Hargreeves family has one last chance to set things right in The Umbrella Academy's final season on Netflix

The Umbrella Academy Season 4 Trailer Sets Up The End Of The World... Again

In this version of history, the Hargreeves' adoptive father, Sir Reginald Hargreeves (Colm Feore), is still alive and apparently helping Viktor (Elliot Page) and the rest of his kids figure out how to save themselves. Sir Reginald's "help" just happens to involve subjecting his children to painful electric shocks.

Ben Hargreeves (Justin H. Min) unknowingly holds the solution to saving the timeline and the world. That's why Viktor reaches out to him first, and it's also why the Hargreeves' enemies are chasing after Ben too. His powers may determine who gets to live or die.

Earlier this month, The Umbrella Academy showrunner Steve Blackman was accused of workplace misconduct by his co-showrunner and former writers on the show. Once the allegations came out, a report emerged that's Blackman live-action adaptation of Sony's Horizon was dropped by Netflix. Those allegations may also hang over the final season of The Umbrella Academy as the cast begins promoting their swan song.

The Umbrella Academy Season 4 will premiere on August 8.
