Max has given fans a reason to celebrate with the first behind-the-scenes photo from “Hacks” Season 4, signaling the official start of production for the much-loved comedy series. This sneak peek showcases the return of lead stars Hannah Einbinder and Jean Smart as they reprise their roles as Ava Daniels and Deborah Vance, respectively.
The commencement of filming comes hot on the heels of the show’s impressive performance at the recent Emmy Awards, where it snagged three major wins out of 17 nominations. These included accolades for Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series. Perhaps most notably, Jean Smart secured her sixth Emmy Award for her standout portrayal in Season 3, bagging the trophy for Outstanding Lead Actress.
Who’s Involved in Hacks Season 4
“Hacks” is the brainchild of Paul W. Downs, Lucia Aniello, and Jen Statsky, who not only created the series but also serve as executive producers and showrunners. The ensemble cast features a variety of talented actors, including Paul W. Downs, Megan Stalter, Carl Clemons-Hopkins, Kaitlin Olson, Christopher McDonald, Mark Indelicato, Rose Abdoo, and Lorenza Izzo. Adding a layer of expertise behind the scenes are executive producers Michael Schur, David Miner, and Morgan Sackett.
Season 3 saw a plethora of guest stars gracing the screen, such as Helen Hunt, Christina Hendricks, Christopher Lloyd, Dan Bucatinsky, George Wallace, and Tony Goldwyn. With such an eclectic mix of talent, the new season promises to build on the show’s success and continue to deliver its unique blend of humor and heartfelt storytelling.
Season 4 will pick up a year after the emotional parting of Deborah and Ava. Deborah is relishing the acclaim from her standup special, while Ava is exploring fresh opportunities back in Los Angeles. The dynamic between these two characters has always been a cornerstone of the series, and fans are eagerly anticipating how their stories will evolve.
The creative team’s track record, combined with a stellar cast, suggests that viewers are in for another season filled with razor-sharp wit and unpredictable turns. Given the show’s ability to balance comedy with deeper emotional undercurrents, it’s hardly surprising that it’s been a darling of both critics and audiences alike.
