The much-anticipated fourth season of Prime Video’s popular animated superhero show Invincible is just around the corner. Amazon dropped a new teaser trailer for the upcoming season and it includes a release date: March, 2026.
Okay, that’s not exactly a release date, but it’s a release month! We know we have just about six months to wait before we find out what happens next with our heroes. If you’re reading this post but somehow haven’t seen the first three seasons of Invincible, it’s very much not a cartoon for kids. Not only is it extremely violent, it deals with pretty adult themes, though unlike Amazon’s other big superhero show, The Boys, there’s not really graphic raunchy sex stuff or an abundance of swearing. It’s mature in ways that The Boys never will be.
It’s also pretty much the best superhero show out there at the moment, consistently giving us better villains, conflicts and stories than anything out of DC or Marvel.
The teaser trailer is cute. It’s not an actual trailer. We don’t see anything from Season 4. Instead, we have Mark / Invincible (Steven Yeun) and Atom Eve (Gillian Jacobs) sitting in a ruined burger joint, with Mark eyeing a plate of rotten food hungrily and Eve telling him to stop. Mark also boasts about how he just won a couple fights, something his fans complain he never does (a fun little friendly jab at the discourse in the fandom).
Amazon also announced that Lee Pace (Foundation, The Hobbit) will play Viltrum’s Grand Regent Thragg, the chief antagonist of Season 4.
Here’s the teaser:
Season 3 was pretty epic, with some insanely dire back-to-back fights against powerful supervillains and one really tragic character death that I’m still not over. The story keeps building toward even bigger confrontations with a galaxy-spanning threat (I’m trying not so spoil anything here) and I’m incredibly excited for this show’s return.
Season 3 was one of my Top TV Shows of 2025 (So Far) and I highly recommend it to any fans of the genre, and even to people who might be burnt out on superhero stuff. I swear, every individual episode of this show is better than 99% of the MCU and DCEU stuff we’ve been getting over the past decade. It’s really that good, and it’s also incredibly apolitical (which isn’t to say there aren’t politics in the show, it just doesn’t make the fictional politics about our current political situation and it avoids a lot of the identity politics that many other shows get bogged down in these days).
And the voice-acting is superb. Yeun is such an extraordinarily talented actor – go watch Beef on Netflix if you don’t believe me – and he’s joined by Walton Goggins, Ross Marquand, J.K. Simmons, Sandra Oh, Mahershala Ali, Jason Mantzoukas and frankly far too many fantastic actors to list here. March can’t come soon enough.
