‘The Chi’ Season 4 Release Date: What We Know So Far

UPDATED 3/18/2021 AT 12:43 PM ET: Showtime officially renewed Lena Waithe‘s drama The Chi last summer, and since then we’ve been eagerly awaiting updates on the new season. The hit series, which follows residents of the South Side of Chicago, was locked in for Season 4 in August, continuing the stories of Ronnie, Emmett, Kevin, and more.
At the time, Waithe said The Chi had taken her “on a journey,” per Variety. “One of learning, healing, and growth. I didn’t know how this season would be received, but the level of engagement and enthusiasm from the fans has been fantastic,” she continued. “I still can’t believe our numbers are up by double digits! The Chi is a team effort, and I’m grateful to continue this journey with such an amazing group of people.”
While we know The Chi is coming back, details about Season 4 have been kept under wraps since the renewal announcement of last summer. Curious about what’s in store for The Chi? Here’s what we know about The Chi Season 4, including when Season 4 of The Chi will premiere and who will star in new episodes.

THE CHI SEASON 4 RELEASE DATE: WHEN WILL THE CHI SEASON 4 PREMIERE?

Showtime announced in March that the Season 4 release for The Chi has been set for Sunday, May 23 at 9/8c.
While Season 3 of The Chi wrapped up late last summer, we have to wait a little while for Season 4 as the coronavirus pandemic continues to slow down production on TV and movies. There’s normally about a year between new seasons of The Chi, but right now, we can expect to see new episodes this summer.

THE CHI CAST: WHO’S RETURNING FOR SEASON 4?

In the next season of The Chi, we can expect to see Jacob Latimore, Alex Hibbert, Yolonda Ross, Shamon Brown Jr. and Michael V. Epps. But we’re also getting some fresh faces in Season 4. Tabitha Brown and Jason Weaver are joining the series, while Curtiss Cook has been made a series regular, Deadline reported early last month. Brown will play interior designer Octavia, while Weaver will play Trig’s (Luke James) old friend Rahsaad “Shaad” Marshall.
