Invincible season 4 has gotten an exciting production update from show and comic creator Robert Kirkman. After an explosive season 3 earlier this year, audiences are waiting in anticipation for the next set of episodes. Each season grows bigger, bolder, and offers even more violence, setting high expectations for Invincible season 4.
Speaking with Collider, Invincible creator Robert Kirkman shared that they're currently working on ADR, which is a process where actors re-record dialogue to fit the animation. He explains that they're in the process of wrapping up the season in preparation for an early 2026 release, keeping consistent with previous seasons.
Kirkman also shared some insight into the season 5 process, which has already had its voice recording completed. They're currently working on two seasons at once, with the plan being to put out a new season every year, citing the show's viewership growth as a reason for Amazon's confidence and preemptive renewal and long-term scheduling.

Invincible season 4 was promised for early 2026 several months ago, and Robert Kirkman wasn't lying. The speed at which they're able to develop seasons of this show is impressive, with the longest gap between seasons 1 and 2 due to COVID and other various animation hurdles.
Barring any unexpected disasters like an alien invasion of Earth, Invincible will likely be out in the first months of 2026 as planned, making this show a rare gem of consistency in an era when annual releases are difficult to find.
Invincible isn't an easy show to create, either. Animation takes time, and it's rare for a streaming service to trust its studios to plan several seasons in advance. Giving Robert Kirkman and his team the freedom to write, voice record, and develop multiple seasons at once allows them to stay on track, and it benefits the show.

I always enjoy reading a Robert Kirkman interview, as the humor that makes Invincible so fantastic is apparent in his day-to-day tone. He's worked in television for a long time, and he knows how TV fans feel about having to wait two years between seasons.
Kirkman knows that long delays can kill a show, and that Invincible was lucky enough to survive the season 2 delays. It's clear the team behind this show is trying to make sure audiences can expect a reliable output, which will help them grow an audience for years to come.
