Revenge to end after season 4

Revenge will end at the end of this current season.

The ABC show, starring Madeleine Stowe and Emily VanCamp, will not return after the season four finale later this month.

Revenge, which debuted on ABC in 2011, tells the story of Emily Thorne (VanCamp) as she plots her elaborate plan for revenge after her father was imprisoned for treason.

Executive producer Sunil Nayar said: “We can officially tell our fans that this will be the end of the story.

“We’ve been talking to the network and we all just wanted to make sure that we felt very confident. Now that everybody has seen the finale – which is fabulous – everybody understands that as much as we all adore the show, it has hit exactly the mark it needed to to end.

“This is the series finale of Revenge that will be airing in a couple weeks.”

The question everyone will be asking is whether Emily Thorne will meet her maker as the series comes to a close?

Considering the finale is titled “Two Graves”—a reference to the Confucius proverb—it seems likely that the show’s protagonist won’t get a happy ending. “There are epic emotional moments in the finale,” Nayar says.

“There are really shocking things that happen in the finale. It’s a tricky thing because the fans are such passionate lovers of the show and we really want to give them what they want, but the hard part about a finale in a show like this is you want to give them some of what they want, some of what they don’t know they want yet and some of what they never expected, and it needs to be a perfect mix of all those things.

“I truly believe our finale is the perfect mix of all those three things. I think they’re going to be extremely satisfied.”

 

Revenge airs on ABC in the US and on E4 in the UK.
