The sleek Parisian streets, elaborate disguises, and pulse-pounding heists that made Lupin a global sensation are gearing up for one last thrill ride. After the jaw-dropping twists of Season 3, whispers of Assane Diop’s return have fans on the edge of their seats. Netflix dropped the bombshell renewal back in May 2025, kicking off production on what promises to be the series’ grand finale. With Omar Sy slipping back into the role of the charismatic gentleman thief, excitement is building faster than one of Assane’s cons. Here’s the scoop on release dates, fresh cast buzz, and those tantalizing plot hints that could redefine the show.
When Will Lupin Season 4 Hit Netflix?
Patience has been the name of the game for Lupin devotees, but good news finally arrived this spring. Netflix greenlit Season 4 in mid-May 2025, with cameras rolling almost immediately in the City of Light. Filming wrapped up around late August, capturing those signature high-stakes chases and shadowy rendezvous across iconic spots like the Seine quays and bustling arrondissements.
No hard release date has landed yet—Netflix loves keeping the suspense alive, just like Assane himself. That said, patterns from past seasons point to a 2026 debut, likely sometime in the fall or winter. Remember, Parts 1 and 2 dazzled in 2021, while Part 3 arrived in October 2023 after a similar production timeline. Eight episodes clocking in at about 45 minutes each mean plenty of twists to savor once it drops. Hang tight; a trailer could tease more soon, especially with the holidays approaching.
Cast Reunions and Fresh Faces: Who’s Back for the Heist?
Omar Sy anchors the chaos once more as Assane Diop, that effortlessly cool mastermind channeling Arsène Lupin with every sly grin and wardrobe switch. Spotting him on set, trench coat billowing as he galloped through Paris on horseback, already has clips circulating like wildfire—pure cinematic gold.
The core crew assembles too, bringing back the heart and heat from earlier escapades. Ludivine Sagnier slips into Claire’s shoes again, navigating the fallout of Assane’s wild choices as Raoul’s mom. Etan Simon returns as the quick-witted teen Raoul, while Antoine Gouy and Soufiane Guerrab reprise their roles as loyal sidekick Benjamin and sharp-eyed detective Guedira—expect fireworks there. Shirine Boutella’s Lieutenant Sofia adds that edge-of-your-seat tension, and Naky Sy Savané steps up as Assane’s resilient mother Mariama, a fresh dynamic from Season 3.
Then there’s the villain who refuses to fade: Hervé Pierre’s Hubert Pellegrini, slinking back into the shadows after that killer Season 3 reveal. Flashbacks might summon Fargass Assandé’s Babakar, Assane’s late dad, to deepen the revenge arc. Creators hint at new allies joining the fold—think more quirky accomplices to fuel Assane’s schemes, much like the curveballs in prior parts. Behind the scenes, heavy hitters like directors Edouard Salier and Louis Leterrier (also a showrunner) ensure the flair stays sharp.
Plot Twists Ahead: What To Expect In Lupin Season 4?
Season 3 left hearts racing: Assane behind bars, a stack of Lupin novels as his only company, all to shield his loved ones from the storm. That envelope from his “neighbor”? Straight-up chills, confirming Pellegrini’s lurking in the same slammer, plotting his comeback. Season 4 dives right in, ramping up the cat-and-mouse with bigger cons, bolder disguises, and betrayals that hit like a velvet-gloved punch.
Word from the writers teases “plot twists and captivating characters” that’ll blindside even the savviest viewers. A jailbreak feels inevitable—Assane’s too slippery to stay caged long—maybe roping in Pellegrini for an uneasy truce? The story arcs toward wrapping Assane’s saga, tying up loose ends from his dad’s framed downfall while expanding the Lupin lore. Fans buzz about a Sherlock Holmes nod, nodding to the books’ cheeky rivalry; creator George Kay’s floated crossover vibes that could shake things up.
