The Forger family is officially coming back — twice. At the SPY×FAMILY ANIME EXTRA MISSION II special event in Tokyo on Sunday, November 8, the production team confirmed that SPY×FAMILY Season 4 is on the way, and that the franchise is also getting a second theatrical movie. Both projects are slated for 2027. A brand-new Season 4 teaser visual, drawn by character designer Satoshi Kadowaki, was unveiled alongside the announcement.
That is a double dose of good news for a series that has become one of the biggest anime success stories of the decade. The manga by Tatsuya Endo has been a hit since it launched on Shonen Jump+ in 2019, and the anime — produced by WIT STUDIO and CloverWorks — has kept that momentum going season after season. Season 1 premiered in April 2022 with 25 episodes, Season 2 followed in late 2023, and Season 3 aired from October to December 2025. Now the Forgers are locked in for another round on TV and on the big screen.
The first film, SPY×FAMILY CODE: White, opened in Japanese cinemas in December 2023 and proved the family could carry a movie, too. The second film follows in its footsteps — but here is the honest part: we do not know its title, its story, or its exact release date yet. The announcement likewise gave no premiere month or episode count for Season 4. Season 4 will be directed by Yasuhiro Akamatsu, with the original voice cast returning. Everything else is still under wraps, so treat any title or plot rumors floating around online as unconfirmed until the official site or TOHO Animation says otherwise.
So what should fans watch for next? The next big reveal window is Jump Festa on December 19–20, 2026, where the franchise could drop a premiere window, a trailer, or the film's title. Until then, the smartest move is a rewatch: all three seasons stream on Crunchyroll, and the wait for 2027 just got a whole lot more exciting.
And here is a fun bit of timing: our own Nova has a SPY×FAMILY special episode of The Nerds List Daily dropping this Thursday, November 12 at 8:00am ET — When Does SPY×FAMILY Season 4 Come Out? — and thanks to this weekend's announcement, we finally have the answer: 2027, with a movie on the way too. Loid, Yor, Anya, and Bond are coming home. We will be watching.
