Outer Banks Season 4 Release Date: Cast, Plot, and Everything We Know so Far!

Days before Season 3 of Netflix’s action-adventure adolescent drama Outer Banks debuted, the show was renewed for a fourth season. The cast unexpectedly revealed the show’s renewal to the audience at Poguelandia, an Outer Banks experience.

The show’s co-creators, showrunners, and executive producers, Josh Pate, Shannon Burke, and Jonas Pate, released the following statement together: “The Pogues are having the time of their lives, and we can’t wait to lay out even more plot twists and turns as season four of Outer Banks unfolds. We are grateful to Netflix, the members of our cast, and the incredible fans who made this possible.”

Here is everything we currently know about Season 4 of Outer Banks, before the Pogues go out on another adventure.

When Is Outer Banks Season 4 Coming Out?

Outer Banks Season 4 is anticipated to make its debut around mid-2024. While fans are eagerly awaiting the continuation of the saga, the exact release date has yet to be announced.

Has Production on Season 4 of Outer Banks Started?

Not just yet. The cast was supposed to return to Charleston in the summer, according to Madison Bailey, who plays Kiara. However, that plan was clearly derailed by the writers’ strike, which began in early May and ended in late September, and the actors’ strike, which started in July and is still going on.

Outer Banks season 4 Cast

Except for a handful of characters who were killed off in the previous season, all of your favorite Pogues will be making a comeback to OBX in Season 4.

For the newest season, John B. (Chase Stokes), Sarah (Madelyn Cline), and the rest of the group are returning to the North Carolina coast. It’s safe to assume that we’ll be seeing the actors who play the two main Kooks again, Drew Starkey (Rafe Cameron) and Austin North (Topper), on stage during the Poguelandia event in February for the Season 4 announcement.

As far as we know, Big John and Ward Cameron—who both perished in the Season 3 finale—will not be making a comeback.

Although the names of any new actors have not yet been revealed, we can anticipate the appearance of some new antagonists and characters in Season 4.

Main cast list

Chase Stokes as John B., who started the original treasure hunt.
Madelyn Cline as Sarah Cameron, John B.’s Kook-turned-Pogue girlfriend.
Rudy Pankow as the wildcard JJ.
Madison Bailey as Kiara, a core member of the group and Pogue by choice.
Jonathan Daviss as Pope, the gangs’ sensible voice of reason.
Carlacia Grant as Cleo, a former Bahamas ship crew member who joined the Pogues.
Drew Starkey as Rafe Cameron, Sarah’s brother and enemy of the Pogues.
Austin North as Topper, the “King of the Kooks” and Sarah’s ex-boyfriend.

Plot of Outer Banks Season 4

In summary, the upcoming season will begin eighteen months following the events of the previous one, as the crew embarks on a brand-new quest to find Blackbeard’s hidden treasure.

Given their knowledge of the Pogues, they had to have a treasure to search for. At the conclusion of Season 3, the friend group’s next adventure was unveiled, as a mysterious man brought a manuscript that belonged to Edward Teach, the notorious pirate Blackbeard. North Carolina and the renowned buccaneer have a long history, which makes it the ideal quest for the upcoming season.

Executive producers of the program have alluded to Season 4 as a new chapter in the story. Season 4 ushers in a new trilogy, which Executive Producer Josh Pate referred to as a trilogy based on the first three seasons. “New villains, a new treasure hunt, and a new life situation” will all be present in the next installment. In the closing moments of Season 4, when the crew was leaving high school and embarking on post-graduation endeavors, we got a glimpse of that.

Pate stated in the spring of last year that the precise plot was still being “tinked” with. But one aspect of the series has already been planned out: its conclusion. The three authors agree on one important point, which is that,” he stated. “The final scene, assuming we make it that far, has always been known to us from the beginning.”
