The British sci-fi comedy “Code 404” blew away the audience’s minds with a refreshing take on humor and detective. With three successful seasons, the creators are worried about when the show will return with a new season.
The show followed Detective Inspector John Major, brought back to life using experimental AI after being killed in the line of duty. Partnered with the enhanced DI Roy Carver, they tackled bizarre cases in a near-future London.
If you are curious to unfold more information about Code 404 Season 4 following its abrupt ending with the third season, we will discuss it all in this guide.
When is Code 404 Season 4 Releasing?
Multiple news outlets have hinted at the possibility of Code 404 not returning with Season 4. There are several reasons as to why this could be happening.
Daniel Mays has mentioned in multiple interviews as well that the possibility of this show returning with a brand-new season in the future doesn’t seem likely and the main reason is because the creators feel like they have managed to conclude narrating their story with the first three seasons.
Official news from Sky Network has also indicated a cancellation of the show in August 2022, so there seems to be no further room for argument. Besides the creators hinting that their story has come to an end, some of the sources also suggest that scheduling conflicts with the lead actors, Stephen Graham and Daniel Mays, ultimately led to its demise.
What can we expect from Code 404 Season 4?
Let us preface this with the fact that Code 404 has been canceled and a fourth season isn’t going to happen anytime in the future.
So, what can we expect from the upcoming seasons? Are there chances that the show might have picked up from where they ended the third season? To be fair, the possibilities are quite heightened.
All that said, there are a few theories exploring what could have possibly happened if the show were to return with Season 4 sometime in the future. We’d just have to explore those in the meantime:
