The Marvelous Mrs Maisel Season 5: Release Date, Cast, Plot, And Everything You Need To Know

The final and fifth season of the popular Prime Video show The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, which stars Rachel Brosnahan as Midge Maisel, will finally start airing on the date that was announced. After the end of Season 4, when Midge had an epiphany while walking through a snowstorm in New York, there will be a lot to cover in the last season. Big kudos to a well-placed billboard for The Gordon Ford Show, she realized that she had ultimately reached the point where she was ready to become a star. When the show comes back on April 14, 2023, let’s hope that just about everything appears to work out for her.

Along with the release date, Prime Video also shared a short teaser with Brosnahan and a summary of the final season, which seems to suggest that her rise to fame may not be as easy as she hoped. The summary says, “In the fifth and final season, Midge is closer than ever to the success she’s always wanted, only to find that closer than ever is still so far away.” What on earth could that mean? Besides the usual sexism against women during that time, of course.

The Marvelous Mrs Maisel Season 5 Cast

A lot of the cast from season 4 will be back for season 5. It was also said that the show was adding more people to the cast. Based on how the last season ended, here are the people who are most likely to come back and who you should keep an eye out for:

The Marvelous Mrs Maisel Season 5 Plot

In the fourth season, Midge goes from being a struggling queen to a business owner when she takes over an illegal strip club and fixes it up. But when the club closed, she required a Hail Mary very badly. Lenny Bruce (Luke Kirby), shows up and offers her a chance to open at Carnegie Hall, but she turns him down. Later, he tells her to stop being quite so picky about possibilities when she isn’t ready to take advantage of them. After years of being against each other, at least they get to spend some time together.

In the last episode of the show, Midge gets into a fight with Lenny, who was going to perform that night, and storms out of the theatre into the snowstorm. She has a lot of things to think about. In the last few seconds, she looks up at a sign for The Gordon Ford Show, where she had turned down an offer to be on before.

Luke Kirby, who performs the real-life comedian Lenny Bruce from that time, will come back, but Lenny’s drug use will get worse. In actual fact, Lenny died in 1966, when he was only 40 years old, after taking too much morphine. Using the show’s timeline, this means that season four will happen five years before his death.

If the show was interested in speaking about this, it could do so by jumping ahead in time to season 5. Luke told Us Weekly that they felt “obligated” to talk about the things in Lenny Bruce’s life that led up to his death at a young age. He said that in season four, they will bring Lenny Bruce back to Earth and find out more about that.

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel season 4 recap

After already being cut off from the tour, Miriam “Midge” Maisel had to start over with her career in season 4. After moving in with her parents, getting a job as a strip club emcee, and having an affair, Midge will be at the top of her game in the next season. Midge had a big realization in front of The Gordon Ford Show’s snowy billboard last season, and now the stand-up comedian is ready to “Go forward” and get the fame she deserves. With her quick wit and sharp tongue, Midge will do great things, and now that she has nothing to lose, it will be fun to watch.

How many episodes will be there in The Marvelous Mrs Maisel Season 5?

TVLine says that there will be a total of nine episodes in Season 5. This seems a bit exciting since there were only eight episodes in the first four seasons.

Why is The Marvelous Mrs Maisel ending?

When the fifth season was announced earlier this year, the show’s producers said that it would be the last one. In a statement, Jennifer Salke, the head of Amazon Studios, said, “Amy, Dan [Palladino, the show’s executive producer], and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel have blazed a path that has never been done before. They have raised the level of stories about women, challenged the norms of our industry, and changed the entertainment landscape for good with their unique stories.”

She went on to say, “The dozens of awards cement Maisel’s legacy in many ways, but the characters Amy created and the joyful, brilliant, unique world she and Dan brought to life are even more enduring and touching.”

This show has been so important to Prime Video, and its achievement will be felt for a long time after its last season. I can’t wait for fans and Prime Video viewers all over the world to enjoy every moment as we reach the end of this groundbreaking and unforgettable series.”
