The show has not been renewed yet, but here's what we know...
The Orville has made a place for itself after three seasons, evolving from something that was nothing really special to a really good sci-fi show. The third season which is named New Horizons has come to an end, so people are wondering what's in store for them. We are going to answer some of the FAQs for this show. Read On...
No official announcement has been made as of now. The showrunner said that they still don't know if the show was going to get renewed.
"My hope is that when the show drops on Disney+, the people who haven’t yet discovered it will suddenly give it a chance," MacFarlane told TVLine. "That’s a potential game changer for us."
In another interview with The Hollywood Reporter, he said, "I would love to have another season. I know the entire cast is hoping for it. It's a big question mark for a lot of reasons. It's not an inexpensive show to produce. It requires an ambitious budget. But the flip side of that is it's no more ambitious than half the other streaming shows on television."
He continued, "It really is going to depend on audience response, on whether the show gets discovered. I still think there are a lot of people who just don't know that we're out there and don't really quite know what we are and when people sit down and watch the show, they're almost always surprised, and it almost always upends their expectations. Probably because it's me. Probably because most of what I've done in the past has been very different, but it's dependent on audience response. At the end of the day, it's a business. It's dependent on whether we're worth something to Disney and to the platform that we're on."
While many feel that the ending of season 3 was a perfect way to end the show, there are still many plotlines that are unresolved. In an interview with Decider, The Orville showrunner said, "When people do give it a chance and sit down to watch the show, they’re almost invariably surprised and caught off-guard. 'Oh, wow, this is completely the opposite of what I thought it was going to be… in a good way!'" he said. "And I think if we can get enough of those folks giving us a chance, the rewards will be in the form of a season four and perhaps beyond."
The Cast is as follows...Seth MacFarlane as Captain Edward Ed, Adrianne Palicki as Commander Kelly Grayson, Penny Johnson Jerald as Dr. Claire Finn, Scott Grimes as Lieutenant Gordon Malloy, Peter Macon as Lieutenant Commander Bortus, J Lee as Lieutenant Commander John LaMarr, Mark Jackson as Isaac, Jessica Szohr as Lieutenant Commander Talla Keyali, and Giorgia Whigham as Lysella.
No, as we are still awaiting a renewal.
