Look, I’ll be honest—I’ve been staring at my Netflix queue for months waiting for an update, and it finally happened. Assane Diop is coming back! Netflix just dropped the official release date for Lupin Part 4, and my heart is doing literal backflips. If you’ve been missing the most charming gentleman thief on the planet, grab your snacks because we have a lot to talk about. Here is everything you need to know, fam.
1. The wait is finally over
Okay, so the official date is set for October 15, 2026. Yes, mark your calendars, set your alarms, and tell your boss you’re busy. We’ve been waiting since the end of Part 3 for some kind of sign, and Netflix finally delivered. Honestly, I’ve watched the teaser three times already and I’m not even sorry. The suspense is killing me, but knowing we have a date makes it so much better.
2. Assane is definitely back in action

Can we just talk about how Omar Sy just *is* the show? Without him, I’d be lost. Reports suggest Part 4 picks up right after that insane cliffhanger. We need to see how he navigates his new reality, especially with his family still in the crosshairs. If he isn’t pulling off some elaborate heist to keep them safe, I’m going to be genuinely shocked. He’s the king of pivots, no cap.
3. The Rotten Tomatoes hype is real
If you don’t remember, the previous parts hold an insane rating—Part 3 sits at a solid 94% on Rotten Tomatoes. That is not easy to do, people! The writing is tight, the pacing is fast, and the twists actually make sense. Part 4 has huge shoes to fill, but given the track record, I’m betting my last dollar it’s going to be another binge-worthy masterpiece. We are ready to be stressed out again.
4. Expect more iconic disguises
Part of the fun is seeing Assane walk right past people who are looking for him. The prosthetics team deserves an Oscar every single year for this. Rumor has it Part 4 is going to feature even crazier transformations. I’m personally hoping for a disguise that’s so bold it’s almost funny. It’s the thrill of the hunt that keeps us glued to the screen, right? I’m here for the chaos.
5. The Paris scenery is everything
Can we talk about how Paris is basically a main character? The cinematography in this show is just *chef’s kiss*. Whether it’s the Louvre or the back alleys of the city, everything looks so moody and expensive. Part 4 is reportedly filming in some new, lesser-known spots around France. I’m already planning my next vacation based on these locations. Honestly, I just want to live in this world forever.
6. The family dynamic is at a breaking point
We can’t forget about Claire and Raoul. They’ve been through so much because of Assane’s obsession with justice. The tension is high, and I have a feeling Part 4 is going to force him to choose between his mission and his blood. It’s going to be emotional, it’s going to be messy, and I’m definitely going to cry. We need a happy ending for them, even if it feels impossible right now.
7. More high-stakes heists
Remember the jewelry heist? Or the escape from the police? We need that level of adrenaline again. Sources say the writers are aiming for even bigger, more complex robberies this time around. I want to see Assane outsmart the authorities in a way that makes us all go, ‘Wait, how did he do that?’ It’s the intellectual flex that makes this show so iconic. I’m literally sitting on the edge of my seat already.
8. The flashback game is strong
I love how the show jumps back to young Assane. It gives us so much context for why he is the way he is. If Part 4 gives us more of his childhood in Senegal or his early days in Paris, I’m all for it. It adds so much heart to the story. Without those moments, he’d just be a cool thief, but with them, he’s a character we actually care about.
9. The soundtrack is still a vibe
If you aren’t listening to the Lupin score while you work, what are you even doing? It’s so mysterious and sleek. I need the Part 4 soundtrack to be just as punchy. A good score makes or breaks a thriller, and this show knows exactly how to build tension with a single violin note. I’m ready for the new tracks to be on repeat in my head for weeks.
10. The villain situation is getting messy
Assane has had some tough adversaries, but who’s next? We need someone who can actually keep up with his brain. The rumor mill says there’s a new antagonist who knows his past better than he thinks. That’s a total mood—the ‘I know your secrets’ trope is my absolute favorite. It’s going to be a battle of wits, and I’m grabbing the popcorn for this one.
11. It’s the ultimate binge-watch
Let’s be real, you’re going to finish all the episodes in one weekend. That’s just the law of Netflix. The way they end each episode makes it impossible to stop. I’ve already cleared my calendar for the release weekend. No social plans, no chores, just me and Assane. If you think I’m going to pace myself, you’re wrong. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, but I’m definitely sprinting.
12. We are not ready for the ending
There’s talk that Part 4 could lead us into the final arc of the series. If this is the beginning of the end, I need it to be legendary. Everything has been building up to this massive confrontation. I’m scared, I’m excited, and I’m ready to be devastated. Whatever happens, Assane Diop has already cemented himself as one of the best TV characters of the last decade. Let’s do this!
