Syfy has today announced the premiere date for the upcoming fifth season of the original drama series The Magicians.
The 13-episode fifth season will debut on Wednesday, January 15 at 10/9c.
Last season, magic was saved, but at a terrible cost: the life of Quentin Coldwater, who died heroically to save his friends - and the world. Julia, Alice, Eliot, Margo, Penny and their friends (and frenemies) must learn to navigate a world without him. Now, a new threat has arisen: in freeing magic, the balance tipped the other way and there's too damn much of it, and as the excess builds, an apocalypse looms. Can the magicians get their shit together to save the world without Q?
The drama stars Stella Maeve, Olivia Taylor Dudley, Hale Appleman, Arjun Gupta, Summer Bishil, Rick Worthy, Jade Tailor, Brittany Curran and Trevor Einhorn.
Sera Gamble and John McNamara developed the drama. They executive produce with Henry Alonso Myers, Chris Fisher, Michael London and Janice Williams. Universal Content Productions and Groundswell Productions produce.
