Season three of HBO’s critically acclaimed, Emmy Award-winning Barry ended with Barry Berkman (Bill Hader) under arrest. The teaser trailer for season four confirms that while Barry is, in fact, behind bars, he remains at the heart of the story.
Dropping the teaser trailer, HBO announced an April 16, 2023 premiere date. The network also announced season four will be the show’s final season, which means only eight new episodes remain to wrap up Barry’s story.
Season four’s first two episodes arrive on April 16th, with new episodes premiering on Sundays at 10pm ET/PT. The series finale will air on May 28th.
“It’s been an amazing journey making this show, and it’s bittersweet that the story has come to its natural conclusion,” said three-time Emmy Award-winner Bill Hader.
Bill Hader and Alec Berg created and serve as executive producers. Hader directed all eight season four episodes. The final season was written by Hader, Liz Sarnoff, Duffy Boudreau, Taofik Kolade, Emma Barrie, Mark Ashmore, and Nicky Hirsch.
Additional executive producers include Aida Rodgers and Liz Sarnoff.
“After three masterful seasons of Barry, we are eager for viewers to see the powerful, complex, and hilarious conclusion to Barry Berkman’s story. It has been a pleasure working with this immensely talented team including Bill Hader, Alec Berg, Aida Rodgers, and the entire exceptional cast and crew,” said Amy Gravitt, Executive Vice President, HBO and HBO Max Comedy Programming.
In addition to Bill Hader, regulars returning for the final season include Stephen Root as Monroe Fuches, Sarah Goldberg as Sally, Anthony Carrigan as Noho Hank, Emmy and Critics Choice winner Henry Winkler as Gene Cousineau, and Robert Wisdom as Jim Moss.
Returning recurring guest stars include Michael Irby as Cristobal, Fred Melamed as Tom Posorro, Andrew Leeds as Leo, Patrick Fischler as Lon Oneil, and Jessy Hodges as Lindsay.
The Season 4 Plot: Cousineau (Winkler) is hailed as a hero as Barry’s (Hader) arrest has shocking consequences. It’s all been leading up to this – the explosive and hilarious final chapter of Barry.
