Mark Grayson's story continues to enthrall viewers with each and every passing installment. Whether it's the next episode or the new season, Invincible entertains audiences around the world. And, four seasons in, that clearly doesn't look to be changing any time soon.
The Prime Video series is based on Robert Kirkman's legendary comic book series and it has become a global phenomenon since its 2021 premiere. Season 4 has taken the show to new heights too, with the shocking fifth episode seeing Invincible and Conquest square off in a game-changing rematch.
With that fourth season winding down, fans are obviously looking to the future to see if there will be more from the show - especially since the stakes in season 4 are indeed final-season worthy. The good news is that Yes, Invincible season 5 is indeed happening.
Invincible season 5 is happening (and there are plans for more beyond that)
If you want more Invincible then fear not: Season 5 is in development. Prime Video made the announcement on July 17, 2025, revealing that the show would indeed continue on beyond the fourth season - which only just commenced in March 2026. That alone clearly emphasises how much faith the platform still has in the superhero series. Better yet, the cast have already completed recording of their lines for that season - with the streamer confirming as much back when they made the 2025 announcement.
That could potentially indicate an earlier-than-anticipated release. It's likely that the show will hold its planned early 2027 release for Invincible season 5 but it all voicework and animation is completed earlier-than-anticipated, there might be an outside chance of an early release.
What's even better than that is that there are plans for the show to continue on beyond season 5. Yes, all being well, Invincible should have more seasons in the pipeline, with Kirkman - who serves as co-creator of the show - revealing at San Diego Comic-Con (via IGN) that there are hopes to make around 7 - 9 seasons in order to tell the fully story of the comic books.
"Roughly seven to eight to nine seasons I think would be necessary to do the complete arc from the comics of Invincible... So we’ll see. Hopefully we get there. We get a ton of support from Amazon Prime and couldn’t be more thrilled with how things are going. So, very excited and hopeful for it."
Of course, it's important to note that how long Invincible runs for will depend on how successful the show continues to be. As Kirkman says, Amazon's Prime Video clearly has faith in the project, with multiple early renewals proving as much. What happens next will likely depend on how seasons 4 and 5 perform for the streamer, too.
That being said, there's no reason to think that it won't continue to be successful. The first season of the show was a surprise breakout hit that amassed a large audience very, very quickly. That made the extensive two and a half year wait for season 2 all the more of a heavily-discussed subject among fans, increasing the anticipation exponentially. Since it's become an annual release with season 2 onwards, the hype and excitement has not calmed down.
Taking all of that into account, you definitely don't have to worry about Invincible season 4 marking the end of the story. The upcoming episode 6 might bring us that much closer to the season finale - but it is just that: A season finale. Season 5 is likely going to arrive on our screens early next year and there's a pretty strong chance that we might get a sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth season.
Now that's good news, Mark!
