It’s the date that Ozark fans have been waiting for, as Netflix has revealed when the second half of the fourth and final season of its hit crime drama will be aired. And we don’t have too long to wait.

The epically tense show has been part of fans’ lives since it first hit screens back in 2017, and now it’s almost time to say goodbye to Marty and Wendy Byrde, Jonah, Charlotte, Ruth et al, as Netflix has announced that the series will come to an end by dropping its final episodes on April 29th, after four seasons.

Revealing the news on Twitter, the streaming platform wrote: “The end is near. Ozark’s final episodes premiere April 29.”

The announcement of when we can see the remaining seven episodes was accompanied by a new teaser trailer focusing on Ruth, played by Emmy-winner Julia Garner. “My childhood traumas are not like yours,” she says. 

The no-nonsense character ended the first half of the final season (spoiler alert if you’re not up to date) in huge emotional distress following the murder of her cousin Wyatt at the hands of nobody’s favourite mobster Javi, not long after he had married Darlene.

In the clip, Ruth says: “You see I’m a cursed Langmore, long inured to violence and death. In the case of a Langmore, perhaps not soon enough.”

As well as concluding Ruth’s story, we’ll also, of course, learn the fate of The Byrds, as they continue to try to finally free themselves from the talons of the cartel. Wendy and Marty, played by Laura Linney and Jason Bateman, spent the first half of the final season, and indeed much of season three, walking a tightrope between the FBI and the cartel.

If you simply can’t wait until April to catch up with the cast of Ozark, you can watch Julia Garner play con-artist Anna Sorkin in Netflix’s new thriller Inventing Anna.

And then, in April, it will be time to say goodbye to the Ozark gang forever. Sad times indeed!
