Will There Be Any Season 5?

Unfortunately, the fourth season is the final season of the series. In late June, Netflix confirmed that Ozark will be back for a final journey. However, the fourteen episodes’ final season will be split into two halves, each containing seven episodes. Netflix wants to build more excitement by expanding the series in a dramatic way that the streamer often does with other series.

Further, the series won many awards for its outstanding performance, musical, and execution.

Ozark Season 4: Tom Pelphrey Will Continue His Role

The fans saw Tom Pelphrey as Ben Davis at the beginning of the third season.
