When To Expect Ozark Season 5 Release Date?

Ozark is a Netflix crime drama thriller created by Bill Dubuque and Mark Williams. The story surrounds the dark underworld, from Mexican drug cartels to the Kansas City Mafia. Although it is not based on a true story, Ozark works hard to make the show realistic, even hiring an FBI agent to fact-check the script for how well it mirrors the truth.

The show first premiered on Netflix on July 21, 2017. It currently has 3 full seasons available to watch and is in the middle of releasing the 4th Season.

At present, there are no plans for Season 5 of Ozark. This is not because it is cancelled; the plot of the show is planned to wrap up in 4 seasons. The first part of the 4th Season is currently available on Netflix and was released on January 21st, 2022. The second half of the 4th Season is set to release on April 29, 2022.

The planned ending for the show means that it won’t be unnecessarily dragged out. Although it’s sad to know that this is the final season of Ozark, it means the story will end on a good note, with showrunner Chris Mundy saying he has the ‘endgame’ all planned out and it has been ready for a while.

Ozark Season 4 Story

Ozark involves a married couple, Marty and Wendy Byrde, becoming entangled with the criminal underground after Marty attempts to set up a money-laundering business. In Season 4 the two are entrenched in a life of crime, having many run-ins with cartels, mobs, and mafias. Now, they’re considering leaving the business, but are constantly facing obstacles.

Both the Byrde couple and their cartel leader attempt to leave, but face constant obstacles, including the Byrdes falling under suspicion of murder. Ruth Langmore, a young lady also part of a local criminal family, threatens to kill the lieutenant of the cartel, Javier, even though Marty believes he is ‘untouchable’.

Wendy also really comes into her own this season, gaining confidence and acting with determination to save herself and her husband from the life they have become trapped in. Laura Linney, who plays Wendy Byrde, received a lot of critical acclaim for her acting in the 4th Season, with critics from The Guardian, IndieWire and Variety all praising her performance even when they criticised other parts of the show.

Ozark Season 4 Part 2 will see the end to all the open storylines. Will the Byrdes be able to leave, to create a new life for themselves? Will Ruth really kill Javier? Will she survive if she does? These questions will be answered when the second part releases on April 29, 2022.
