Banshee is a unique and compelling show that helped set high standards for original programming for Cinemax,” reads a statement from Michael Lombardo, president, HBO Programming. “The show’s exceptional blend of action and drama earned a vocal and passionate fan base that will not be disappointed in Banshee‘s final season.”

Adds co-creator and executive producer Jonathan Tropper, “Banshee has been an incredible ride, and we continue to break new ground in season four. “While we certainly considered returning for a fifth season, I always said that when the story was told, it would be time to move on, and that time has come. I am grateful to Cinemax for making Banshee the great success it has been and for supporting our creative decision to wrap things up.”
