The fourth and final season of The Umbrella Academy, the Netflix series based on Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance‘s comic series of the same name, arrives on Aug. 8, and they’ve unveiled the official trailer. It’s soundtracked by MCR’s “The End” (the first time one of the band’s songs has been used on the show, as Polygon points out), and it gives us a look at Dr. Gene Thibedeau (Nick Offerman) and Dr. Jean Thibedeau (Offerman’s real-life wife, Megan Mullally).
The official synopsis reads, “The Hargreeves siblings have scattered after the climactic showdown at the Hotel Oblivion led to a complete reset of their timeline. Stripped of their powers, each is left to fend for themselves and find a new normal — with wildly varying degrees of success. Yet the trappings of their uncanny new world prove too hard to ignore for very long.”

“Their father Reginald, alive and well, has stepped out of the shadows and into the public eye, overseeing a powerful and nefarious business empire,” it continues. “A mysterious association known as The Keepers holds clandestine meetings believing the reality they’re living in is a lie and a great reckoning is coming. As these strange new forces conspire around them, the Umbrella Academy must come together one last time — and risk upsetting the shaky peace they’ve all endured so much to secure — to finally set things right.”
Meanwhile, Way announced a new comic series, Paranoid Gardens, earlier this year, and the first issue is out later this month.
