Warning: Spoilers forward.

A tough spot. Ozark season 4 began in a tense place after the Byrde family were fully embedded into cartel life — and separated from one some other.

The Netflix series first premiered at the streaming giant in July 2017, following Marty Byrde (Jason Bateman) and his wife, Wendy Byrde (Laura Linney), laundering cash alongside their two children, Charlotte (Sofia Hublitz) and Jonah (Skylar Gaertner). As the family business grew extra profitable, they relocated to the Ozarks in Missouri and kicked their entrepreneurial efforts into prime gear.

After three fan-favorite seasons, a fourth and final iteration was once announced in June 2020. Season 4 used to be subsequently cut up into two parts of seven episodes each. The former dropped in January 2022 with the latter launched nearly 4 months later in April 2022.

“With the final season, the entire thing was once like, ‘Well, how are we gonna finish it?’ Should the Byrde family pay a invoice, you already know? Like, should they break out with it? Should they no longer?” Bateman teased right through an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon weeks before the final episodes dropped. “And so [showrunner Chris Mundy] stated, ‘I want it to be a contented finishing, but there’s were given to be slightly of a, well, is it glad for them?’ Hopefully, the target audience will think, ‘Ah, they’ve kind of threaded the needle between a cheerful ending — but they’re limping.’”

The fourth season — spoiler alert — began with Ruth Langmore (played through Julia Garner) having break up up from the crowd. Meanwhile, Marty and Wendy have got even nearer to Omar Navarro (Felix Solis). After dramatic seven episodes of trying to set up their trade, they in any case secured a meeting with the FBI to neutralize the cartel as soon as and for all.

“I learn the final scripts and I just threw the scripts across the room,” Jessica Frances Dukes, who plays Special Agent Maya Miller, told Us Weekly exclusively of the finale ahead of its premiere. “I tossed tables! I cried! It’s gonna be an emotional roller-coaster. So be ready.”

The New York local persisted: “It’s simply hard when you are living with the nature for so long. You have such a lot of things that you need. You are like, ‘I have those five different endings that I need to happen.’ And the ones writers are in order that good. They gave me one thing more than I can have ever imagined together with her. And I’m simply commemorated.”
