Plot:
The Killing has faked its second death. Netflix has announced that it has ordered the fourth and final season of The Killing as a limited series. The show was produced by Fox TV Studios in 2011 and aired on AMC. The sad-toned The Killing stars Mireille Enos and Joel Kinnaman, and tells the story of two Seattle detectives involved in a murder case. The show is a remake of the Danish series Forbrydelsen. Werner Schade will return to continue to serve as producer. The Killing was canceled by AMC after its second season in 2012. However, after Netflix and AMC reached a production cost-sharing and syndication agreement for the third season of the show, The Killing was revived. However, due to the continued low ratings of the third season of The Killing after its resurrection, AMC canceled the show again earlier this year. However, recently, Fox Television Studios, Weina Schade and her representative at WME quietly presented a six-episode finale script of The Killing to Netflix. Because the script was eye-catching enough, it was finally favored by Netflix, so that the follow-up story of the third season of the show could finally be presented. Currently, the first three seasons of The Killing are already available on Netflix on demand. Netflix emphasized that after this revival, The Killing will only be broadcast to 40 million subscribers through its international network. Netflix will follow its usual practice of releasing six episodes at a time, but the premiere date has not yet been finalized. Cindy Holland, Vice President of Netflix Programming, said: "The rich and coherent story of The Killing will return to Netflix, and we believe this is the best way to say goodbye to Sarah Linden and Stephen Holder. It has always been our long-cherished wish to present The Killing to its new and old fans in the form of network on-demand, which is most suitable for it." David Madden, President of Fox Television Studios, said: "The resurrection of The Killing proves that this captivating work planned by Wena Schade and performed by an outstanding cast led by Mireille Enos and Joel Kinnaman is still as attractive as ever in the eyes of fans. We are very happy that Netflix can see the value of The Killing."
