February 15, 2024 - Paramount+ today announced that the final season of fan-favorite and critically acclaimed original series EVIL will premiere this May. Additionally, four bonus episodes have been ordered by the streaming service and are set to begin production soon in New York City for a thrilling series finale.

"Robert and Michelle King created a unique and deeply entertaining way of exploring the intersection of religion and science," said Jeff Grossman, Executive Vice President, Programming, Paramount+. "We thank Robert, Michelle and the immensely talented cast and crew of EVIL and are incredibly proud of their collective work on the series. We can't wait to see what's in store for these characters, in what is sure to be a nail-biting, wild ride of a final season."

"It's hard to underscore the ability of Robert and Michelle King to cleverly craft thought-provoking stories that push creative boundaries time and time again, and EVIL is no exception," said David Stapf, President of CBS Studios. "We're proud to call them partners, and want to thank them both, Liz Glotzer, the entire cast and the crew for bringing these complex characters to life year after year as we celebrate this final season of EVIL."

"We want to thank Paramount+ for giving us four bonus episodes to end EVIL in the world in style," said Robert and Michelle King, series Co-creators, Showrunners and Executive Producers of EVIL. "We will miss this show and cast. In many ways it was a dream project, but sadly evil will outlast EVIL. See you in May."

The series stars Katja Herbers, Mike Colter, Aasif Mandvi, Michael Emerson, Andrea Martin, Kurt Fuller, Christine Lahti, Brooklyn Shuck, Skylar Gray, Maddy Crocco and Dalya Knapp.
