The Orville's Scott Grimes Reportedly Dropped A Huge Update About Season 4, And I'm So Excited

As a long-time sci-fi enthusiast who has been following The Orville since its inception, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and cautious optimism upon hearing Scott Grimes‘ alleged start date for Season 4 filming. I’ve seen my fair share of ups and downs in the world of TV, and I’ve learned that even the most promising rumors need to be taken with a grain of salt.


It’s been some time since fans received any news about whether The Orville will continue for a fourth season or not. Seth MacFarlane, the show’s creator and lead actor, has consistently kept fan spirits high with hints of its return. However, due to his packed workload, there have been doubts about when we might get to watch new episodes. Recently, it seems like we have a significant update from series actor Scott Grimes, and I can hardly contain my excitement and optimism!

It appears that “The Orville” isn’t scheduled on TV for 2024, which might disappoint Hulu subscribers. However, there seems to be some positive developments regarding the show’s future. Here’s a significant update from Scott Grimes about the series, making it the most exciting news of the year so far for those eagerly waiting for its renewal.

Scott Grimes Shared An Alleged Start Date For The Orville Filming Season 4

Scott Grimes recently appeared at Star Trek Las Vegas, where actors from The Orville are frequently invited due to the shared themes between the two series. During his performance, fans such as X (@Tyranicus) and @ParksAndCons posted on Twitter that the actor hinted at the status of his sci-fi show. It seems Grimes explicitly stated that filming for Season 4 will commence in 2025. Check out TrekProfiles’ post for more details:

After three months since Peter Macon expressed optimism about a revival, Scott Grimes announced the tentative start date for The Orville Season 4. To say fans are excited would be an understatement as they’ve been waiting two long years since the airing of “Future Unknown”, which had left many wondering about the show’s future.

Why I’m Cautiously Excited, But Still Waiting For More Answers

As a dedicated fan and close associate of Seth MacFarlane, I can confidently share some exciting news about The Orville. Although I didn’t disclose where or from whom I heard this tidbit, our long-standing partnership on American Dad! goes way back before the sci-fi series even began. To add to that, I’m part of the star-studded cast for Peacock’s Ted, which recently got a green light for Season 2. So, it’s not too far-fetched to assume that someone in my circle could have the inside scoop on The Orville filming updates.

It’s important to clarify that while an actor has suggested a potential start date for production, this isn’t an official confirmation from Disney or Hulu about the return of the series. We’re waiting for any updates from them. However, it’s worth mentioning that D23, Disney’s massive entertainment expo in Anaheim, is approaching soon. This could be the opportunity for Scott Grimes’ statement to be validated by the streamer during the event. Until then, we’ll have to wait and see if our curiosity gets satisfied.

Currently, you can stream “The Orville” if you are subscribed to Hulu or Disney+. Being a lover of science fiction shows, I’m thrilled at the prospect of a new season, and I’m certain I’m not alone in that excitement.
