The final countdown

Netflix has made it official that the fourth and final season of 13 Reasons Why will be launched on June 5. In this season, we will get to see Liberty High School’s senior class prepare for graduation. However, before they can actually say goodbye to one another, they will have to bury a dangerous secret. The Season 4 of the series, which is based on Jay Asher’s 2007 novel by the same name, will consist of 10 episodes.

The first season followed the plot of Asher’s book, revolving around the titular tapes sent by teenager Hannah Baker (Katherine Langford) to various classmates to explain her suicide. Subsequent seasons thrust her friend Clay Jensen (Dylan Minnette) into the centre of the story and expanded topics to include a legal battle between Hannah’s parents and the high school and an attempted school shooting (Season 2), as well as the murder of Bryce Walker (Justin Prentice), a popular athlete but also a sexual predator (Season 3).
