After the finale of The Morning Showseason 3, I've found myself missing my favorite talk show hosts. This season brought so many twists and turns to the table, it's only natural to be itching for more of the show! I mean, c'mon...what's gonna happen to Bradley? What does the merger mean for the UBA staff? Will Alex take finally take the company reins? If you find yourself in the same boat, don't worry. Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston recently dropped some tidbits for an upcoming season, and we're so here for it! Here's everything we know about the The Morning Show season 4.
Is The Morning Show season 4 filming?
Yes, The Morning Show season 4 is now filming! Reese Witherspoon and Jennifer Aniston both posted the same photo of them, along with Tig Notaro, holding their name cards at a table read. "Ahhhh!! We’re back!!" Reese says in her Instagram post, while Jennifer says, "Let @themorningshow season 4 games begin 🥳 Here we come!"

Let's cut right to the chase — there will be a fourth season of The Morning Show! We don't have a premiere date yet, but hopefully, we won't have to wait for too long.
Who's in The Morning Show season 4 cast?

We know that Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon will be returning, but at the Critics Choice Awards on January 14, the duo also said they "actually do have a really good part" for Emmy-nominated actor Pedro Pascal. When Pedro unintentionally crashed Jennifer and Reese's red carpet interview, they immediately wanted to know if he was free for season 4. "Should we just cast Pedro?" Jennifer asks. "Wait, Pedro, are you avail?" Reese adds.
When Jennifer Aniston jokes the role is romantically linked to the entire cast of characters, Pedro grabs her hand and says, "I'll be waiting to hear from my agents." This is one The Morning Show season 4 cast decision I can *totally* get behind!
While we wait to see if Pedro Pascal is actually confirmed to appear in The Morning Show, Variety just announced Marion Cotillard will be joining Season 4! She'll be playing Celine Dumont, "a savvy operator from a storied European family."
While we don't know anything else about the character, we're 100% sure this means she possibly has a juicy history that will add another complicated layer to The Morning Show!
What will The Morning Show season 4 be about?

While we don't know much about plot details quite yet, showrunner Charlotte Stoudt confirmed to The Hollywood Reporterthat Bradley and Alex's friendship will continue to be the focus. Stoudt explained that "The show is a love story between these women. The core of The Morning Show is their dynamic and how they change each other."
Speaking with Variety, the two leading ladies (Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon) shared their opinions on what should happen in the upcoming season. Witherspoon explained that she'd love to see how the newsroom deals with the rise of AI, having the show address what a strange time it is for journalism because of the ever-increasing technology. Aniston wants to see something similar, with a focus on how the journalism industry is going through ebbs and flows as audiences try to navigate who and what they can trust.
Both women also shared that they think that the show will have a time jump in season 4. Production was put a little behind due to the writers' and actors' strikes, and because the show is rooted in the world around us, a time jump would allow the show to better mirror what's actually happening in the world.
What do Jennifer Aniston & Reese Witherspoon want viewers to take away from The Morning Show?

The Morning Show isn't just a fun watch — it's also packed with important messaging. When Variety askedabout what audiences are meant to take away from the show, Aniston and Witherspoon both gave candid answers. Witherspoon said that the show is meant to enable adult conversations about real-time issues in workplace environments and personal lives. The show is meant to help people process, digest, and talk about these things.
Aniston echoed her sentiment, saying that there is something special about having people sit and digest on a weekly basis. Because people's attention spans are so limited, she finds it important to have something that people take a moment to absorb and use to connect with one another.
