Lupin Season 4 will return on Netflix in Fall 2026

Lupin debuted in January 2021 and was watched by 76 million households in its first month, making it the most-watched non-English series at the time. This popularity continued with each consecutive season, with special praise for Sy as Leblanc's namesake character. Lupin also bagged the Critics' Choice Award for Best Foreign Language Series and was also nominated for Emmy and Golden Globe Awards.

Lupin Season 4 will mark the return of Sy, Ludivine Sagnier as Claire Laurent, Shirine Boutella as Sofia Belkacem, Antoine Gouy as Benjamin Férel, Soufiane Guerrab as Youssef Guédira and Théo Christine.

As mentioned above, the lead character is based on Leblanc's 1905 character, a fictional gentleman thief and master of disguise, who is often considered the criminal counterpart of Sherlock Holmes. Arsène Lupin first appeared in Leblanc's French short stories, serialized in a magazine. The character gained attention with the first short story, "The Arrest of Arsène Lupin", published in July 1905.


What can you expect from Lupin Season 4?

Lupin Season 4 will mark the return of Assane Diop, the professional thief who grew up alone after his father was wrongfully framed by the powerful Pellegrini family. After Assane's father dies in a prison cell and he is left to fend for himself, he vows revenge on the Pellegrini family. Assane takes inspiration from a book about a gentleman thief, Arsène Lupin, which his father had gifted him on his birthday.

While Netflix has not revealed the plot details for Lupin Season 4 yet, the upcoming season will likely continue after the jaw-dropping cliffhanger in Season 3. The Lupin Season 3 finale saw Assane successfully steal the Black Pearl and fake his own death. Just when it looked like he would walk away once again, his mission to save his estranged mother ultimately put him in a prison cell after he turned himself in to protect his family.

Season 4 of Lupin will likely take place in the aftermath of Assane's shocking choice and will bring him face-to-face with old and new enemies in an exciting new chapter.

The previous three seasons of Lupin are streaming on Netflix.
