Unstoppable: Everything You Need to Know About Invincible Season 4

Invincible - Mark

As an ally, he can be unpredictable.

Threat from the Sequids

In season 2, after being rescued from the Sequids and returning from Mars, astronaut Rus tried to build his life anew. However, as he was cleaning up his apartment, he was again attacked by an octopus-like creature that had apparently managed to get to Earth.

In an Alien-like scene, Sequid entwined Rus and took over his body. However, in season 3, they stayed dormant – as it was revealed in the season finale, they hid in the sewers, slowly breeding and preparing an army. Thus, in season 4, Invincible will probably have to face an invasion of body-snatching space parasites.

Demons from Hell

The Earth depicted in Invincible is struggling with a multitude of villains and alien races trying to colonize it, and it looks like they will soon be joined by demons from Hell. The season 3 finale featured Damien Darkblood, a demon detective, who investigated the murder of Guardians of the Globe in season 1 but was sent back to the underworld by Cecil.

However, in the final episode of season 3, Darkblood unexpectedly returns – he contacts the demon overlord and offers to help him regain the “infernal throne”. The tool is to be a super-human dwelling on Earth – probably referring to Mark.

In the comics, Darkblood, inspired by Watchmen’s Rorschach and Hellboy, disappeared from the plot quickly. As it turns out, Robert Kirkman, comic book and series creator, regrets that he didn’t develop the demon detective’s plot. In a statement to Cartoonist Kayfabe, Kirkman said:

“One thing I really regret is I never had an adventure where the superheroes went to Hell. There’s been so many superhero comics where they gotta go fight Mephisto or something, and I just never got around to that. (…) The Damien Darkblood character in Invincible was there so I could eventually do a story like that, and I never got around to it.”

In an interview with Grace Randolph, Kirkman said the following:

“Along the way, I really like the idea of bringing in different storylines that maybe I considered doing in the comics… there’s a really cool Damien Darkblood plot that I had. I’ve always loved the superhero trope of superheroes going to Hell, it happens in Marvel and DC comics all the time.
We never got round to doing it in Invincible but I’d always planned for there to be some adventure where Invincible has to go to Hell to do something with Damien Darkblood, and we’re hopefully going to be able to do it in the show.”

All indications are that in season 4, Mark will finally take a trip to the infernal dimensions.

Mr. Liu’s revenge

In season 3, an Asian cyborg who takes the form of a green Chinese dragon is the leader of the crime syndicate called The Order. After a clash with Titan, supported by Invincible, Liu’s body is killed, but his spirit is somehow restored during a ritual performed by his sidekick.

Mr. Liu told Mark before his death: “Your power may come from the stars, but mine comes from beyond this reality”. That means that in season 4 the cyborg may return to regain the power over the criminal underworld and get revenge on Mark.

Of course, we can expect plenty more development in the personal lives of the cast. The relationship of Invincible and Atom Eve will develop, as will the romance of Debbie and Paul, and Monster Girl and Rudy/Robot. Mark and his mom will probably have a lot of problems with Oliver, who, because of his Thraxan background, grows up faster than other children.

Invincible season 4 voice cast and characters

We expect the following cast members to reprise their roles in the fourth instalment of the show:

– Steven Yeun – Mark Grayson/Invincible
– J.K. Simmons – Nolan Grayson/Omni-Man
– Sandra Oh – Debbie Grayson
– Christian Convery – Oliver, Mark’s purple half-brother
– Zazie Beetz – Amber Bennett
– Gillian Jacobs – Eve Wilkins/Atom Eve
– Grey Griffin – Monster Girl and Shrinking Rae
– Zachary Quinto – Rudy/Robot
– Walton Goggins – Cecil Stedman
– Seth Rogen – Allen the Alien
– Sterling K. Brown – Angstrom Levy
– Chris Diamantopoulos – Donald Ferguson
– Ross Farquand – The Immortal and Rudy Connors
– Ben Schwartz – The Shapesmith
– Andrew Rannells – William Clockwell
– Jay Pharoah – Bulletproof
– Aaron Paul – Powerplex, aka Scott Duvall
– Simu Liu – Multi-Paul, aka Paul Cha, a superhuman who can duplicate himself
– Tzi Ma – Mr. Liu, an Asian cyborg who can take the form of a Chinese dragon
– Jeffrey Dean Morgan – Conquest, the vicious Viltrumite
– Doug Bradley – The Technicians, cybernetic creatures helping Angstrom Levy

The biggest casting news is that Lee Pace will voice Thragg, the cruel Grand Regent of the Viltrum Empire. The talented actor is widely recognized for his impressive performances in acclaimed projects such as Foundation, The Hobbit, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Bodies Bodies Bodies, among a plethora of other notable roles.

Tragically, the character Rex Splode, brought to life by the talented voice actor Jason Mantzoukas, will not be making a return in the upcoming fourth season of the series. The superhero met his demise during a fierce battle against one of Mark’s malevolent alter egos.

The appearance of Xolo Maridueña, the voice behind Dropkick and Fightmaster, enigmatic twins proficient in time-traveling martial arts, remains uncertain for the new season.

The fate of the Maulers twins, who met their end at the hands of Oliver in the third season, is shrouded in ambiguity regarding their possible return in the forthcoming episodes. Historically, the mischievous duo has always found a way to resurface, leading to hopeful anticipation for another resurrection.

Regarding the potential for a fifth season of Invincible, indications suggest a high likelihood of its occurrence, although Amazon has yet to provide official confirmation. Updates will be promptly shared as soon as further information becomes available.
