‘The Umbrella Academy’ Season 4 Brings in Top Talent for Final Season
Season four of The Umbrella Academy is looking to make the show go out with a bang by bringing in these major talents. Nick Offerman, probably best known as Ron Swanson on Parks and Recreation, is currently garnering Emmy buzz for his performance as Bill on The Last of Us, which some consider the best performance of his career. His wife Megan Mullally, to whom he is celebrating 20 years of marriage this year, is known for playing Karen Walker on Will & Grace. She can currently be seen on the Starz series Party Down, and she will soon be seen in the Disney+ series Percy Jackson and the Olympians. David Cross recently teamed up with his former Mr. Show co-host Bob Odenkirk to develop Guru Nation, a docu-style comedy for Paramount+. He’s also recently been seen in Station Eleven and What We Do in the Shadows. Many will also remember him as Tobias on Arrested Development.
The Umbrella Academy season four will pick up after the events of season three, where the adopted super siblings appeared to have once again stopped the apocalypse but at the cost of their powers.
