The Pogues’ return was announced before season 3 has even arrived.
Fans of teen mystery series Outer Banks may be waiting desperately for the third season to drop next week, but it seems Netflix has an early present for them, as it has officially renewed the series for season 4.
The news was first revealed at Poguelandia, an immersive fan event re-creating the Pogues’ island paradise in Huntington Beach, with the cast taking to the stage to announce the renewal.
John B star Chase Stokes told the crowd: “This is an incredible moment for all of us. To our cast and crew, thank you so much for all of your hard work.”
Meanwhile, co-creators Jonas Pate, Josh Pate and Shannon Burke said in a joint statement: “Seeing Poguelandia come to life was nothing short of spectacular. The Pogues are enjoying an adventure of a lifetime and we now get to map out more twists and turns as the joyride continues into Season 4 of Outer Banks. Thank you to Netflix, our cast and the amazing fans who helped to make this happen.”
