Insecure season 5 release date updates: Will there be a season 5? When is it coming out?

The HBO original series Insecure has sincerely made a name for itself as this series has become beloved by all, especially black girls who see a lot of themselves in Issa. Here’s what we know about Insecure season 5.

Hailed for its diversity, its ability to talk about real issues, and its depiction of your everyday black woman trying to figure out her way through her awkward life, Insecure truly deserves all the immense praise and award nominations that the show received including the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Comedy Series.

Critical-acclaim aside, the immense fanbase of this HBO series is truly what allowed for the show to reach four monumental seasons, and they’ve been wondering if their love was enough to garner a fifth season. We tell you everything to know about Insecure season 5 right here.

How many seasons of Insecure are there?

Currently, four seasons of Insecure have been created. Each season has about eight episodes except for its highly-acclaimed fourth season which has ten episodes.

Is Insecure season 5 happening?

Yes, yes, and thank goodness, yes! It was announced via the series’ official Instagram that the series would be returning for a much-needed fifth season. Check out the post down below.

While news of a fifth season is the best-case scenario for long-time fans, unfortunately, the worst-case scenario follows close behind as it was also announced that the fifth season of Insecure would be the final season. (We’re Lowkey Losin’ It.)

Though news of the soon coming final season is definitely disheartening, we’re still happy to have one final goodbye coming to our screens very soon.

How many episodes of Insecure season 5 will there be?

Being that this will be the final season, the show’s creator, Issa Rae, gave us a nice treat to remember her by. Rae told ET Online that fans will be receiving more than eight episodes in season 5, and we could not be any more excited! Now, all we have to do is wait for those episodes to be filmed!

When is Insecure season 5 filming?

Prepare your tissues as it was confirmed via Issa Rae’s Twitter that filming for the final season has officially wrapped. See the tweet with pictures of our favorite OG cast members down below.

A bittersweet feeling may wash over you, but you can rest easy knowing that Rae made sure that every single aspect of this season was treated with love and was something that fans would be proud of. In an interview with Today, Rae stated:

"I’m definitely ready to let it go. I knew that I wanted to end it after five seasons. And I feel like I’m really proud of this season that we’re shooting now. It’s so much fun, and it’s made me appreciate the show in a different way."

If she’s ready to say goodbye, then we must, too, prepare to bid a somber farewell. Here’s when you can expect those final episodes.
