‘Hanna’ Won’t Return After Season 3
Amazon Studios’ Hanna won’t be getting a Season 4. During an interview with Entertainment Weekly, showrunner David Farr explained why the show is will end in Season 3.
“That was always the intention, to be honest,” Farr said during the interview. “If you look back at when I was talking about the second season, I talked about how it needed ‘the third act.’ I come from the theater originally, and I always have full act structure in my head to how a piece of drama plays out. And in this case, I felt that there was this very clear arc.”

The third season will follow Hanna’s (Esmé Creed-Miles) journey to destroy and free herself from Utrax. CIA agent and former enemy Marissa Wiegler (Mireille Enos) and Utrax agent John Carmichael (Dermot Mulroney) join Hanna on this mission to freedom. However, trouble starts brewing as assassins Sandy (Áine Rose Daly) and Jules (Gianna Kiehl), and other enemies become skeptical of Hanna. It was announced last week that Ray Liotta has joined the cast as Gordon Evans, an ex-military man and intelligence operator who lives by a strict moral code.

In addition, Farr went on to elaborate on how Season 3 centers around Hanna as an adult.
“You’ve got the upbringing of the child Hanna, then you’ve got the adolescent Hanna, and then act 3 is the end of her journey. And each of those parts of the journey involves the discovery of different parts of herself emotionally. It also involves huge discoveries in terms of things she didn’t know and things we didn’t know, and that’s true very much this season. So that’s how I’ve always had it planned.”
The Amazon Prime show is based on the 2011 film which shares the same name as the show. All six-hour-long episodes will air on November 24. In the meantime, Seasons 1 and 2 of Hanna are available on Amazon Video.
