Fargo confirms ‘unmissable’ season 4 release date on Channel 4 – and it’s just around the corner
THE new season of Fargo has had its UK return date officially confirmed by Channel 4 - and it's sooner than you think.
After a long delay, the fourth season of the show, which was created by director Noah Hawley, debuted in the US last September.
Fans will be thrilled to know that it's finally been confirmed that Fargo season 4 will arrive on British TV screens this year.
Channel 4 have revealed they will premiere the 11-episode season this spring, airing a new episode weekly.
While there is no set date, Spring officially begins in just over a fortnight on March 20 - so it's sure to follow closely behind.
The hit TV show is set in Kansas in the 1950s, documenting the breakdown of a truce between rival Italian and Black crime groups.
Adding to its already impressive cast line-up, the new season will feature American comedian Chris Rock and English actor Ben Whishaw.
Channel 4's head of acquisitions and international Nick Lee revealed his excitement at seeing the show return to the screen.
"We are thrilled to bring back the biggest and most gripping Fargo yet, with some absolutely unmissable performances," he said.
"Fargo explores a breadth of engaging and complex storylines and it's a fantastic opportunity to bring this unique cinematic show to our audiences once again."
