It looks like Hacks, the Emmy-winning comedy competing against The Studio and The Bear, will wrap with its fifth season. Hannah Einbinder, who won Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy for her role as the put-upon Gen-Z writer Ava Daniels, confirmed the news on the 2025 Emmy Awards<\/a> red carpet. \u201cWe\u2019re going to start filming next week, and knowing it\u2019s the last season is really bittersweet,\u201d she told E!\u2019s Heather McMahan. \u201cBut I think it\u2019s right, you know? I think it\u2019s nice to do something as many times as it should be done. Not overstay your welcome.\u201d<\/p>\n

The reveal isn\u2019t entirely out of nowhere. Einbinder had hinted at the possibility in a Deadline interview<\/a> following the season-four finale. \u201cWe very much know where we want to end the series; it\u2019s how we pitched the show originally. Right now, we\u2019re still writing toward it ending in the fifth season,\u201d she said. \u201cBut we are really in the middle of figuring it out. If it\u2019s not done in five, it\u2019s close to it. But we shall see.\u201d And now, they have seen enough. If anything, the timing feels apt.<\/p>\n

Season four, which tracked Ava and Deborah Vance (Jean Smart, also nominated tonight) through the fraught launch of their late-night show, concluded with Deborah back as an underdog, a reset that more or less echoes the finale of each previous season. Still, was Einbinder supposed to let that slip tonight? Had the news dropped weeks earlier, it might have juiced a few more Emmy votes.<\/p>\n
