Spy x Family is getting a fourth television season and a second theatrical film, both slated for 2027. WIT Studio posted the news, and Crunchyroll reported that official series accounts made the announcement during the Spy x Family Anime Extra Mission II event in Japan on November 8, 2026. No specific broadcast date or theatrical opening date was given.
What was announced
WIT Studio's news post, dated November 9, 2026, says that a 2027 broadcast of the TV anime's Season 4 and the release of a second feature film have been decided. A Season 4 teaser visual was released with the announcement. The studio signed off with a note that further news would follow.
Crunchyroll, in a report published November 8, said a teaser visual of the Forger family was unveiled along with a 2027 broadcast date for Season 4, and that "the franchise's second theatrical film will release in Japan next year." Further details, Crunchyroll added, "will be confirmed at a later date."
There is not yet a premiere month, episode count, or exact theatrical date in those official notices. 2027 is the year that has been confirmed.
Staff attached to the teaser
WIT Studio published staff credits for the teaser visual, including director Yasuhiro Akamatsu, assistant director Hiroki Shinagawa, key animation by Satoshi Kadowaki, and art by Kazuo Nagai. Crunchyroll, citing the series website, also lists a wider staff, including series composer Aya Takaha, and says the animation is by WIT Studio and CloverWorks. Those credits should be read as the information released with the teaser, not as a full, final production slate for every episode of Season 4.
The first three TV seasons premiered in 2022, 2023, and 2025. The previous film, Spy x Family Code: White, opened in Japan in December 2023, with Crunchyroll releasing it more widely the following April. Crunchyroll says it streams the existing seasons and that film.
The manga, by Tatsuya Endo, began in Shonen Jump+ in March 2019. Crunchyroll notes 18 volumes released in Japan to date, with Viz Media publishing the English edition. ABEMA Times (Anime Freaks), in a report on the same announcement, says the series has topped 42 million copies in circulation through Volume 18, and that the 2023 film Spy x Family Code: White drew more than 14 million viewers worldwide. Those circulation and viewer figures are attributed to that report.
The takeaway
Season 4 and a second Spy x Family film are officially aimed at 2027, with a new teaser visual already public. That is the firm news. Any calendar more precise than the year would be speculation until WIT Studio or the official series accounts set one.
