Lupin part 3 landed on Netflix<\/a> on 5th October, re-introducing fans to Paris\u2019s most suave gentleman thief.<\/p>\n Omar Sy reprised the role of Assane Diop, whose latest\u00a0Ars\u00e8ne Lupin-inspired caper saw him attempt to steal a black pearl while trying to keep his family together.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n But will he be back for more? Part 3\u2019s dramatic conclusion certainly left the door open, with revenge on the cards for one of Assane\u2019s old enemies.<\/p>\n Read on for everything you need to know about Lupin part 4.<\/p>\n There\u2019s currently no word from Netflix on the future of the show, but given its global popularity, we can\u2019t imagine it won\u2019t return \u2013 and we certainly hope it will following that ending (more on that later).<\/p>\n Speaking exclusively to RadioTimes.com<\/a>, co-creator and writer George Kay said: \u201cThese shows are designed on purpose to run for a long time. And it\u2019s never about the stunts.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe one tiny worry of running out of amazing places in Paris to steal from, that\u2019s not the issue. It\u2019s just making sure that you have those core central relationships to keep exploring.<\/span><\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cWill Assane reunite with Claire and Raul properly? Will he be able to navigate his personal life? Those relationships feel really strong, and so that can keep on going.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Kay added: \u201cThe only way we know for sure is when Netflix says keep going, but all of the architecture is there for that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Both parts 1 and 2 aired in 2021, with part 3 landing on the streamer more than two years later in October this year \u2013 so it remains to be seen if 2024 will be Lupin-less, or if that lengthy hiatus was an anomaly, with part 4 landing in 2024.<\/span><\/p>\n Watch this space for updates.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a given that Omar Sy<\/strong> will return as Assane Diop.<\/p>\n The rest of the cast includes:<\/p>\n We\u2019d also expect young Assane and Claire to feature once again, played by Mamadou Haidara<\/strong> and Ludmilla Makowski<\/strong> respectively, as well as Fargass Assand\u00e9<\/strong> as Assane\u2019s late father Babakar.<\/p>\n We met Assane\u2019s mother Mariama for the first time in part 3, played in her older years by Naky Sy Savan\u00e9<\/strong> and in 1998 by Seyna Kane<\/strong>, and we\u2019d expect the character to play a role in part 4 also.<\/p>\n And in HUGE news, big bad Hubert Pellegrini (Herv\u00e9 Pierre<\/strong>) returned in the final moments of part 4 (more on that in a moment), which means he will undoubtedly return in the next chapter to wreak havoc once again.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p> As part 3 drew to a close, Assane stayed true to his word and handed himself in to Guedira, who in turn ensured that his letter was delivered to Claire, Ben was released from prison, and his cell was stocked with Lupin books.<\/p>\n But there was one final twist in the tale.<\/p>\n A guard appeared and handed him an envelope from his \u201cneighbour\u201d, which contained a photograph of Assane as a boy holding a copy of The Cagliastro\u2019s Revenge. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n It was in that moment that he knew: Hubert\u00a0<\/span>Pellegrini, who framed his late father for stealing a diamond necklace that belonged to Marie Antoinette, had returned.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a very open ending, and it\u2019s obviously left with lots to explore and lots of questions about who was behind what and how did this all happen,\u201d Kay told RadioTimes.com<\/strong>. \u201cIt\u2019s the equivalent of, \u2018What we\u2019ve just been through for seven hours, is that really<\/em> what just happened?\u2019 Which feels good.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cAnd it\u2019s quite a soft question, it\u2019s a bit of a haunting. You\u2019re like, \u2018Hang on a sec.\u2019 It\u2019s a great place to end the season.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Kay went on to say that Pellegrini will return if season 4 gets the nod, adding: \u201cFor me, there\u2019s no question that Pellegrini is behind something there. It would be wrong to suggest he is if he\u2019s not. Nothing happens by accident in Lupin.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cAssane Diop has lots of enemies but he\u2019s only got one arch enemy. And that [having him return] was building the legacy of that central antagonism that comes out of Hubert Pellegrini.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n Kay didn\u2019t want to give anything away about what direction the story will go next, but the team \u201cdefinitely know what\u2019s going on\u201d, with Kay adding: \u201c<\/span>We\u2019ve got very strong instincts around what\u2019s really true. It\u2019s a bit irresponsible to pop those [big moments] in unless you\u2019ve got a good plan. <\/span>The thing about writing Lupin is you want to box yourself right into a corner, but you\u2019ve got to have the escape route, otherwise it\u2019s completely haywire.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cWe do know what we are not saying.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n If the series is recommissioned, new footage could arrive sooner than you expect.<\/p>\n Netflix shared a teaser for part 3 in September last year, more than a year before the new episodes arrived.<\/p>\n As for the official trailer, that\u2019s likely to arrive in the month leading up to the premiere.<\/p> Lupin parts 1- 3 are streaming now on Netflix.
