AMC has renewed its original drama series Turn: Washington's Spies for a fourth and final season, it was announced today. Production on the final 10-episode season will begin in Virginia later this year, with a premiere date in 2017.
"Turn: Washington's Spies has always had a lofty goal - to tell the real story of the American Revolution from the ground up," said Joel Stillerman, President of Original Programming and Development, AMC and SundanceTV. "Craig Silverstein, Barry Josephson and their incredible team introduced us to the Culper Ring who have reminded us that without human intelligence, the war may have had a very different outcome. We are excited to see this story of betrayal and rebellion, and the sacrifices therein, through to completion in a fourth season."
"I am so pleased to be able to bring the story of the Culper Ring to its epic conclusion, at the point where the revolutionary war ends and the great American experiment truly begins," added series creator Craig Silverstein. "This series has been a joy to work on."
In its third season, the drama's cast included Jamie Bell, Seth Numrich, Daniel Henshall, Heather Lind, Meegan Warner, Kevin R. McNally, Burn Gorman, Angus Macfadyen, Samuel Roukin, JJ Feild, Ian Kahn, Owain Yeoman, Ksenia Solo and Nick Westrate.
Silverstein serves as executive producer with Barry Josephson and Michael Taylor. AMC Studios, Sesfonstein Productions and Josephson Entertainment. The series is based on the novel Washington's Spies: The Story of America's First Spy Ring by Alexander Rose.
