FX has announced that it has granted an early season four renewal to the Emmy and Golden Globe-winning series Atlanta, with plans to shoot the fourth season back to back with the third beginning in the spring of 2020.
“What more can be said about Atlanta than the critical acclaim and accolades that Donald [and executive producers Paul Simms, Dianne McGunigle, Stephen Glover and Hiro Murai] have earned for two exceptional seasons of what is clearly one of the best shows on television,” said by Eric Schrier, President, FX Entertainment. “This group of collaborators and cast have created one of the most original, innovative stories of this generation and we are proud to be their partners.”
Atlanta sees Donald Glover starring alongside Brian Tyree Henry, Lakeith Standfield and Zazie Beetz and follows two cousins looking to make their mark in the Atlanta rap scene. Critically acclaimed, with a 97% Fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes, the series has won two Golden Globes and five Emmys.
