Australian comedy-drama TV series Bump is officially returning for season four, with Stan confirming that the show is currently in production.
The Silver Logie nominated series was a huge hit domestically and broke streaming records on Stan upon its premiere in 2021. It also struck deals internationally with the CW Network (US), BBC (UK), ProSieben (Germany) and CBC (Canada).
The streaming giant has now revealed that the popular original series has already begun filming and will see many of the show’s regulars return for the fourth instalment.
Who’s in it?
Returning for another season of Stan Original’s Bump are popular cast members Nathalie Morris, Carlos Sanson Jr, and the entire Chalmers-Davis family, including Logie and AACTA Award-winning actress Claudia Karvan (Spirited) and Christian Byers (Year Of).
Also making a comeback are fan favourites Loane Sa’ula (Preppers), Safia Arain (The Appleton Ladies’ Potato Race), Paula Garcia (Thirteen Lives), and Claudia De Giusti.
Season four will also welcome a fresh and exciting cast, including award-winning stand-up comedian Steph Tisdell (Class of 07) and Australian of the Year 2022 and Paralympian Dylan Alcott AO.
What is season four of Bump about?
The upcoming season picks up two years from the season three finale. Now, as fully grown adults, Oly and Santi are navigating the challenges of stabilizing their small family unit with their excitable seven-year-old, Jacinda.
Meanwhile, Vince, Talia, and Ariel have found their own rhythm with their toddler Malik. However, the situation becomes a bit more complex with the involvement of Reema as somewhat of a step-mom figure, especially since she isn’t interested in having kids of her own. At the same time, Reema and Vince consider whether their relationship can work.
Oly’s first real job thrusts her into a steep learning curve as she deals with her demanding boss Shauna, who expects her to be available at all hours. Elsewhere, Santi grapples with redefining his sense of masculinity as Jacinda’s primary caregiver because he’s no longer the sole breadwinner.
Dom is happily reliving his youthful share-house days, while Angie distracts herself from her break-up by throwing herself into the climate crisis but it only leads to conflicts once again with Rosa whose expanding restaurant empire seems far from sustainable.
Seasons 1 – 3 of Bump are available to stream on Stan.
