Toho confirms Spy x Family Season 4 and a second film for 2027

Spy x Family Season 4 is set for 2027, with Toho confirming a fourth TV anime season and a second theatrical film in a press release. TOHO said the two projects will debut in Japan next year, and Anime Trending, Japan Anime News and us.oricon-group all reported the same 2027 window. The statement came as a press release rather than a simple poster date.

The news lands after Spy x Family Season 3 ran in Fall 2025 and ended without a follow-up announcement, Comicbook.com reported. For months, the franchise’s next anime step was an open question even though the manga kept drawing attention.

The source reports disagree only on packaging, not on substance: some call the movie new, while animecorner and us.oricon-group call it the second film.

What Toho confirmed

The return is a package, not a lone sequel:

• TV anime: Spy x Family Season 4, placed in 2027.
• Theatrical film: a second movie, also in 2027.

Gizmodo and Anime News Network headlined the same pairing, while The Express Tribune reported Toho Animation confirming both the fourth season and the new film for next year. Anime Trending put the debut market squarely in Japan.

To mark the Spy x Family Season 4 confirmation, a teaser visual featuring the Forger family has been released, animecorner reported. The image is the first concrete look released with the announcement, but it does not come with a month or day attached.

What still isn’t fixed

The year does two jobs: it tells audiences when to expect Spy x Family Season 4, and it attaches a calendar to the film after a Fall 2025 season that closed with no follow-up. Us.oricon-group’s description of the two 2027 items as a TV anime Season 4 and a second theatrical film keeps the formats separate. The announcement fixes neither a production studio nor a broadcast home, and it gives no episode count. The animecorner report ties the Forger-family visual to Spy x Family Season 4 rather than to the film.

The film is not another episode drop and the season is not the movie; both are needed to make the announcement a fourth season plus a second theatrical film. Japan remains the named debut market for both projects. Collider reported separately that Spy x Family reached a new milestone on the New York Times Best Sellers list as fans awaited fourth-season news, though the report named the list rather than the rank.

Toho has fixed the year and the country, 2027 and Japan, but not the calendar date, broadcast slot or theatrical release date for Spy x Family Season 4 or the second film. The teaser visual is out, so the next concrete checkpoint is an exact premiere date.
