According to The Hollywood Reporter, MGM+ has renewed From, the supernatural thriller series, for a fifth and final season.
The series, which airs on MGM+, follows the happenings of a nightmarish town in the United States that traps whoever enters it. The residents of the town try to remain alive but are plagued by nightmarish creatures at night as they try to find a way out. The series is a popular one, and the most-watched show on Amazon’s MGM+. According to show creator John Griffin, it was hard to end the show, but inevitably was the right decision.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Griffin said that the show always had five seasons in mind.
“There was a fair amount of soul-searching,” Griffin said. “But we all came to the realization that if we made that sixth season, it would be for us, because it’s just too hard to say goodbye.”
Griffin also touched on the fact that Season 4 will begin to dive into the beginning of the end of the show.
In full transparency, five seasons was always the goal, but we always wanted to let the story tell us when it was time to end,” said Griffin. “When we reached the end of season three and the death of Jim (Eion Bailey), it felt like we reached the end of the beginning. Similarly, season four very naturally feels like the beginning of the end. We’ve had the opportunity to tell this story from the beginning the way we really wanted to tell it, with the full support of Michael Wright and everybody over at MGM. It’s rare you get to tell this type of story and give it the life you feel it needs, to let the story decide when it’s time to end.
