Will There Be A ‘Discovery of Witches’ Season 4 on Netflix? Star Teresa Palmer Has Thoughts

All three seasons of AMC ‘s A Discovery of Witches hit Netflix this week, introducing the intoxicating romance between debonair vampire Matthew Clairmont ( Matthew Goode ) and the brilliant witch and historian Diana Bishop ( Teresa Palmer ) to more fans than ever before. A Discovery of Witches initially came to a mostly satisfying end back in 2022, with a finale that not only explained the secrets of Ashmole 782, aka The Book of Life , but also tied things up neatly for our protagonists. However, could there be a fourth season of A Discovery of Witches ? After all, the three season series was initially based on the All Souls Trilogy by Deborah Harkness, a trilogy that’s recently been expanded with a fifth installment, Black Bird Oracle , focused on the future of Diana and Matthew. Could there be A Discovery of Witches Season 4?!?
Way back in March 2021 , Decider chatted with A Discovery of Witches star Teresa Palmer ahead of the second season finale. She had already completed filming on Season 3 and was gushing about being reunited with her Discovery of Witches co-star Steven Cree on a recent film project. When we asked Palmer back then if she’d be open to continuing with the role past Season 3, she had a very intriguing answer…that depended upon the future of Deborah Harkness’s series…
However, when Decider interviewed A Discovery of Witches star Teresa Palmer all the way back in 2021, she wouldn’t officially shut down the possibility. Even though Palmer thought they found a “beautiful organic ending to the show,” she also admitted that she was having trouble letting go of Diana.
“I think she’s really got a place in my heart. She’s imprinted on me. I have always been really good at breaking up with a character and moving on, but she’s kind of lingering around,” Palmer said.
Palmer also said that while she didn’t know of any plans to continue A Discovery of Witches past Season 3, she was aware that Harkness was cooking up new adventures for Diana, Matthew, and their twins.
“Deborah’s always writing, writing, writing, writing, and I think she’s written more books and she has the intention of writing more for Diana and Matthew,” Palmer said in 2021. “ So never say never .”
Three years later, and Harkness has published the fifth installment in her All Souls Series . The fourth book focused on Marcus Whitmore, a character played by the recently-axed My Lady Jane ‘s hot horse guy Edward Bluemel . However, this latest book picks up Diana and Matthew’s story seven years after A Discovery of Witches Season 3 ends. Which means there is definitely room for A Discovery of Witches to come back.
So now there’s the tantalizing glimmer of a possibility that should A Discovery of Witches take off on Netflix, a fourth season could be in the cards. At least, the Teresa Palmer of 2021 wasn’t opposed to it. Who knows what she thinks now? (She has recently posted quite a few nostalgic behind-the-scenes clips and images on Instagram… )
