By: SonyCine Team

The Byrdes are back and the stakes have never been higher.

Netflix recently released an exclusive first look at Ozark season 4, the show’s final season.

They announced that Season 4 will premiere in 2022 in two parts and run a total of 14 episodes, with both parts of the season airing within the year.

"We're so happy Netflix recognized the importance of giving Ozark more time to end the Byrdes' saga right," showrunner Chris Mundy said in a statement to Entertainment Weekly. "It's been such a great adventure for all of us — both on screen and off — so we're thrilled to get the chance to bring it home in the most fulfilling way possible."

Jason Bateman, star, director and producer added: “A super-sized season means super-sized problems for the Byrdes. I’m excited to end with a bang(s).”

Ozark has received 32 Primetime Emmy nominations in multiple categories, including two for outstanding drama series.

VENICE Frames Stylish Netflix Action Thriller on “Kate” - Shot on Sony

Kate is a new Netflix thriller starring Mary Elizabeth Winstead, who plays a cold-blooded assassin poisoned during her final mission, leaving her 24 hours to seek revenge. Woody Harrelson plays her mentor and handler. Director Cedric Nicolas-Troyen and director of photography Lyle Vincent designed the project’s visuals around distinctively saturated mixed-temperature color photographs of Tokyo nightscapes. For composition and blocking, they took cues from Sergio Leone Westerns. The shoot was mostly done in Bangkok, which stood in for Tokyo, except for a week of exteriors done in the Japanese capital. A few key scenes were done in Los Angeles, including a final shootout that required slow-motion and other effects. Throughout the far-flung shoot, the sensitivity of the Sony VENICE played a crucial part in accomplishing the look.
