MORE: HBO Announces ‘Insecure’ Series Finale Premiere Date
Beginning in 2016, the Emmy-winning comedy series follows Issa Dee (a fictionalized version of Issa Rae) and her group of girlfriends through their rollercoaster ride through life, dealing with relationships, friendships, careers and awkward moments. The series stars Yvonne Orji as Molly, Jay Ellis as Lawrence, Natasha Rothwell as Kelli, Amanda Seales as Tiffany, and Courtney Taylor as Sequoia. The series was created by Issa Rae and Larry Willmore.
Season 5 will span 10 episodes and will follow the characters as they evaluate past, present, and future relationships in order to smoothly enter the next phase of their lives. At the end of season 4, Issa and Molly’s friendship was in shambles, Issa’s relationship with Lawrence (Jay Ellis) was at a crossroads with the reveal of a baby on the way by another woman, Nathan (played by Kendrick Sampson) came back into Issa’s life, and Issa still has no idea what her purpose is in life.
In January, Issa told Deadline Season 5 was always meant to be the series’ swan song. “We always planned to tell this story through five seasons, but we couldn’t have made it this far without the tremendous support of our audience,” she says. “I feel blessed beyond measure to bring our characters’ stories to an end, on-screen at least.”
