Fans of the intoxicating psychological drama Tell Me Lies are eagerly awaiting news on whether the series will return for a fourth season on Disney Plus. Adapted from Carola Lovering's novel, the hit show follows the toxic relationship between university students Lucy Albright, played by Grace Van Patten, and Stephen DeMarco, portrayed by Jackson White.
Current Status of Tell Me Lies Season 4
At the time of writing, Disney Plus has not officially confirmed whether Tell Me Lies will be renewed for a fourth season. The show has captivated audiences since its debut in 2022, with Season 3 currently streaming on the platform. However, uncertainty looms over its future, as showrunner Meaghan Oppenheimer previously revealed that she envisioned Season 3 as the natural conclusion to the story.
Showrunner's Perspective on the Series Finale
In an interview with Us Weekly before the latest series premiered, Oppenheimer stated, "In terms of future seasons, it’s impossible to really know at this point. I certainly had always thought this was always more or less the ending I’d had in mind." She added, "But you never know what’s going to happen in the future. But there’s definitely a sense where I didn’t want to leave anything hanging this season. Basically, I wanted to satisfy everyone."
Cast Member Insights and Hopes
Spencer House, who plays Wrigley in the series, recently shed light on the future of Tell Me Lies in a new interview with The Direct. He said, "You know, there’s always the chance that a show will create another season, and whether or not that happens, that remains to be seen for the audience..." The 33-year-old actor also shared his hopes for Wrigley's character should Season 4 happen, explaining, "I feel for me, Wrigley has been explored... [Though] I would love to dive into his relationship now with his parents."
Fan Speculation and Episode Details
Despite fan speculation fueled by a social media post from the official Tell Me Lies account on Threads, which teased "six more weeks of being evil," there are only eight episodes in Season 3. The finale is scheduled to release on Tuesday, February 17. This has led some viewers to predict additional episodes, but unfortunately, no extra instalments are planned.
What This Means for Viewers
Considering Spencer House's uncertainty and Meaghan Oppenheimer's initial plan to end the show with Season 3, it seems unlikely that Tell Me Lies will continue beyond the upcoming finale. However, fans can still hold on to hope until Disney shares official news. In the meantime, viewers can enjoy the remaining episodes and speculate on the fate of Lucy and Stephen's tumultuous relationship.
The series has become a standout title on Disney Plus, alongside other hits like Andor, The Bear, and Alien: Earth. With its gripping narrative and complex characters, Tell Me Lies has cemented its place in the streaming landscape, leaving audiences on edge about its potential renewal.
