A Netflix criminal thriller set in the Ozarks of Missouri, Ozark follows the Byrd family, a seemingly average family, as they deal with their personal and professional crises. In Ozark, the dramas, on the other hand, aren’t your average ones.
Marty (Jason Bateman), the patriarch of the Byrd family, is a husband, father, and financial counsellor who has uprooted the family and relocated them to the Ozarks. One of Mexico’s largest drug organisations employs Marty as a money launderer.
With their hopes for the day when they may escape Missouri’s lake area dashed, the Byrd family has found themselves entangled in the local, small-town criminal syndicates. While in the Ozarks, they fall more into a life of crime the longer they remain.
As a result of its widespread acclaim from reviewers and fans, Ozark has been nominated twice for the Emmy Award for Outstanding Drama Series. For the third season alone, the sitcom has received 18 nominations for Primetime Emmy Awards.
“Ozark” fans (including us here at Collider) are eagerly awaiting season four, which will be the series finale. In the meanwhile, we’ve compiled a list of everything we know about the upcoming season of Ozark, including release dates, cast members, and more.
When Is Ozark Season 4 Set to Begin?
Ozark’s fourth and final season will air on Netflix on January 21, 2022.
Season four will include 14 episodes, unlike the previous ten-episode seasons. The last season will be divided into two sections, each with seven episodes. The release date for the second instalment has not been confirmed by Netflix yet, but it is safe to assume that viewers will need some time to comprehend the events of the first instalment.

Characters of Ozark Season 4-
- Cast members returning for the final season include Jason Bateman and Laura Linney as well as Sofia Hublitz and Lisa Emery. Marty Byrde is portrayed by Jason Bateman, who has been nominated for two Golden Globes for his performance. Wendy is married to Marty, and they have two children, Charlotte and Jonah. As a financial counsellor, Marty works for a Mexican criminal organisation that has been laundering money for him since 2007.
- Marty Byrde’s wife and mother-in-law, Laura Linney plays Wendy Byrde. Wendy’s ruthless methods and cold-hearted personality frequently surprise her husband, who has a history in political campaigns.
Sofia Hublitz plays Charlotte Byrde, Marty and Wendy’s brash adolescent daughter. Sofia originally had a hard time adapting to her new life and her parents’ business activities, but she quickly became an ally of her parents. - As Jonah Byrde, the younger brother of Marty and Wendy, Skylar Gaertner portrays the socially awkward and potentially hazardous conduct that distinguishes his brother from his sister.
- Ruth Langmore is portrayed by Julia Garner, who has won two Emmys for the role. Despite her tough exterior and filthy vocabulary, Ruth is resourceful and quickly joins the Byrd family.
- As Darlene Snell, an Ozarks heroin dealer, Lisa Emery has a shaky relationship with the Byrds.
Wyatt Langmore’s younger cousin, Charlie Tahan, is Wyatt’s friend Charlotte Byrd.
Maya Miller, Felix Solis as Omar Navarro, and Damien Young as Jim Rattelsdorf are all scheduled to join the ensemble in season four. Adam Rothenberg joins the cast as private investigator Mel Sattem, while Alfonso Herrera plays Mexican cartel member Javi Elizonndro.

Is Anyone Else Involved In The Creation Of The Film Or Television Show Involved?
Additionally, Jason Batemen will serve as an executive producer with Chris Mundy, Mark Williams, John Shiban and creators Patrick Markey and Bill Dubuque. The last season will also feature Laura Linney as a co-executive producer.
As showrunner Chris Mundy stated to Variety last year, “We’re very thrilled Netflix recognised the value of giving ‘Ozark,’ more time to complete the Byrdes’ tale appropriately.”
Is Season 4 Filming in Season 4?
Production for Ozark’s fourth and final season began this year in November, and ended up in October. Moreover, despite the fact that the show is located in the Ozarks, much of the filming has been done in Atlanta, Georgia.
What Can We Expect From Season 4?
Many unanswered mysteries remain following the conclusion of Season 3. What makes the Byrdes think they can put their faith in Navarro? I’m curious to see what Darlene has up her sleeve. And will the Byrds ever be able to free themselves from the Ozarks’ shackles? We’ll have to keep an eye on things.
This season’s episode titles provide us some insight into what’s to come, including
“Let the Great World Spin,” and the third episode is titled “City on the Make.” But in the meantime, we’ll settle with this official synopsis:
Marty and Wendy are rid of Helen and climb to the top of Navarro’s empire. They find another opportunity to get out of the Ozarks but some past sins won’t stay buried and the most dangerous threats come from blood.
“A super-sized season means super-sized problems for the Byrdes,” Bateman told Variety. “I’m excited to end with a bang(s).”
