The Expanse, the critically acclaimed space-based sci-fi series, now calls Amazon Studios its home after being rescued from cancellation by Syfy. During a panel for the show this weekend at San Diego Comic-Con, the show shared a video from the main cast and crew, thanking their passionate fans for helping save the show and giving the series a bright future with Amazon.

In addition to thanking fans, the video features some recently released concept art of the planet Ilus from season 4. The showrunner and cast also tease what's to come in the show's fourth season, which will adapt the novel Cibola Burn. Check out the SDCC video message below:



Executive producer and showrunner Naren Shankar also spoke at the SDCC panel about season 4 and how it begins a new chapter for the show. As fans remember, season 3 ended with portals to 1300 habitable systems opening up inside the Ring. Now with endless possibilities, the show will venture into a new frontier that should excite fans:

We’re in what is really second big movement of the books — it’s a new chapter. They’re no longer constrained by just being able to go in the solar system. New worlds have opened up. How humanity deals with his vast new frontier in a situation where resources have been constrained and how that effects society…that the big next chapter of The Expanse.

Shankar also discussed how the move to Amazon will affect the show both creatively and behind the scenes. Now that the series is on a streaming platform rather than network television, The Expanse does not have to worry about language, content or time restrictions:

It’s going to be more awesome. We no longer have the language restrictions. [We can] curse like a sailor. We don’t have the nudity restrictions… and the 4K and HDR will look amazing on Amazon. We’re no longer constrained by a 43-minute box. We can put some air into it, let things breathe a little bit more. So we’re excited to be on Amazon Prime.

Are you excited for the next season of The Expanse? Season 4 is expected to debut on Amazon Prime sometime in 2019.

@HeavyMetal4Life I haven't started this show yet but my god dude, you need to invest in some new thumbnail images. 😐

@Nebula - haha, I just keep using the same one over and over for this show. Since I'm the only one writing articles on The Expanse, and at most I would only be writing one article on the show, figured it wouldn't make much of a difference. Plus I like the expression of Holden in the thumbnail, usually this show leaves you in a state of awe and shock.

@HeavyMetal4Life - Throwing the protomolecule alien every now and again. That'll raise some eyebrows.

@csims1885 - Haha, the next article will feature a protomolecule Caliban as the thumbnail!

When a fanbase actually does a good work in backing up a show they like. Nice.

they got a rare chance to end a show do not milk it.
HeavyMetal4Life
HeavyMetal4Life - 7/22/2018, 6:26 PM
@grif - they are following the books... so adapting novels is different from milking it. They are about to start the fourth book.

CassianAndor - 7/22/2018, 10:25 PM
@HeavyMetal4Life - Exactly. In a perfect world the show will run for however long it needs to cover all 9 books. Potentially 9 seasons, although the novel arcs in the show haven't actually matched up with the seasons until this one.
HeavyMetal4Life
HeavyMetal4Life - 7/22/2018, 10:45 PM
@BloopBlorp2 - yeah exactly. However many seasons necessary to adapt the novels.

Does anyone know if season 3 is due to air on Netflix on the UK as the show normally does? I'm assuming due to any outstanding contract stuff, or have Amazon snapped up the whole thing, meaning Season 3 will air first on that?
