Spy x Family is getting season 4 and a new movie in 2027
Spy x Family is gearing up for Season 4 and a second feature — and, after a special event in Japan, you can pencil in a release window.
If you thought the Spy x Family hype was cooling off, think again. Not only are we getting a fourth season, but another film is on the way—so there's no risk of running out of Forger family drama any time soon. The official word dropped over in Japan during one of those sprawling anime events that always manage to pack in surprises, slightly baffling timelines, and just a hint of chaos for good measure.
Both a fourth season and a new film are slated for 2027—Spy x Family is doubling down on releases for next year.
Two Big Projects, One Year
First up, Season 4. It’s been confirmed—if without an actual day on the calendar. The Forger family (Loid, Yor, Anya, and Bond) will return as a unit, and there’s even fresh key art to prove it: imagine them all strolling through a European-looking city, giving off that ‘accidental spy family on holiday’ vibe while newspapers whip around in the wind. Just enough detail to be charming, but not spoiler material.
Directing duties fall to Yasuhiro Akamatsu, with WIT STUDIO and CloverWorks still handling the animation, so no changes on that front. They’re keeping everything else under wraps—so if you want to know where the story goes next, you’ll have to wait with the rest of us. In classic series style, nobody’s letting slip if the family’s secrets get any easier to keep under control.
At the same event, the team also pulled back the curtain on a new Spy x Family film, which is due in Japanese cinemas next year. Again, exact dates are off the table, but at least fans can start plotting which cinema snacks pair best with telepathic children and undercover assassins. Crunchyroll is still streaming the first three seasons, for anyone who needs a refresher or missed the Anya memes the first time round.
What's Made It Work
Just as a quick refresher: This whole thing is adapted from Tatsuya Endo's manga. An intelligence agent codenamed Twilight (or Loid Forger, by day) builds a ‘perfect’ family to get close to some politician—he adopts a psychic daughter, marries an assassin (unknowingly, of course), and everyone pretends they’re normal. Quite a lot of intrigue for a household that, on paper, only wants to get a kid through an elite school without drawing attention.
