The Righteous Gemstones Season 4 has dropped its ninth episode. It showcased the gemstones heading to the Galilee Gulch. As the fourth season came to an end, fans have grown curious about its next chapters. So, is The Righteous Gemstones canceled or renewed for a Season 5?

Here is everything you need to know about the future of the popular comedy-drama franchise.

Is The Righteous Gemstones Season 5 canceled by HBO?

While The Righteous Gemstones Season 5 has not been canceled by HBO, the show has come to a natural end with Season 4 Episode 9.

Season 4 dropped its last episode on May 4, 2025. Fans had speculated about the possibility of additional episodes. This was due to the streaming platforms’ recent trend of dividing their shows’ seasons and releasing them in parts. Thus, fans were expecting a similar release pattern for The Righteous Gemstones Season 4. However, the show isn’t following this routine as all of its nine episodes were released weekly on their scheduled release dates and times without any breaks or delays.

Further, fans were looking forward to the comedy franchise’s next installments. Unfortunately, The Righteous Gemstones won’t be renewed for more seasons. For the unversed, the series was renewed for a fourth and final season in July 2023, much ahead of its premiere. However, the show wasn’t canceled by the network, HBO. The makers decided to give a conclusive end to The Righteous Gemstones with four chapters.

Danny McBride, the creator and lead actor, earlier opened up on the show’s conclusion. He stated, “The Lord spoke to me and said it’s time to wrap this sucker up. The story this season made the themes, ideas, and characters in ‘The Righteous Gemstones’ feel whole and complete.” McBride added, “I have loved every second of working with this team for the past eight years, and there are some incredible payoffs, twists, and turns in store over the course of this wild final season.” (via Variety)
