FX announced today that Atlanta has been renewed for a fourth season. The pickup is an early one, as the comedy has yet to air its third season. Speaking of Season 3, which was ordered over a year ago, the cable network stated today that production on both upcoming seasons will begin next spring.

The series premiered in 2016 with a 10-episode run that went on to win numerous awards, including two Emmys and two Golden Globes, including one for Best Television Series - Musical or Comedy. Season 2 returned in 2018 with 11 episodes under the title Atlanta: Robbin' Season, with many hailing it as even better than the first.

Created by comedian and musician Donald Glover, who also stars in the series, Atlanta follows two cash-strapped cousins trying to better their lives by making a living in the city's hip hop scene.
