It’s a bittersweet moment for fans of the comedy drama, as HBO confirmed this will be the show’s fifth and final season.

Here’s everything we know so far.

The final chapter is premiering on HBO Max on October 24 for fans in the US.

However, it won’t be a long wait for UK fans, as they will be able to catch-up on Sky Comedy on October 26 at 9pm.

Issa Rae, who created the beloved HBO comedy-drama, made the announcement on Twitter.

Alongside the announcement, Issa wrote: ‘Very excited to film our fifth and final season!

‘We couldn’t have told a complete story without the tremendous support of our audience and the faith of @HBO. See y’all soon! #InsecureHBO’

Who is in Insecure season 5?

Viewers should expect to see the main Insecure cast return for season five:

Issa stars as Issa Dee, a young, outgoing woman who is still figuring love, life and friendship in Los Angeles.

Yvonne Orji as Molly Carter, Issa’s confident and free-spirited BFF.

Jay Ellis – Lawrence Walker, 

Natasha Rothwell – Kelli Prenny

Amanda Seales -Tiffany DuBois

Courtney Taylor – Sequoia

The lead actress tweeted some cute behind the scenes snaps on the last day of filming on Twitter.

Actress and singer Keke Palmer will be guest starring in the upcoming season, after the star decided to ‘shoot her shot’ on Twitter by asking Issa to ‘put her in’ season five – and it worked.

Is there a trailer for Insecure season 5?

Indeed there is.

In true Issa style, the clip starts off with her infamous Issa’s mirror conversations, with present day Issa giving throwback Issa a pep talk.

The trailer follows a similar pattern also shows Issa and her friends having emotional moments mixed with the usual comedic and awkward moments that we would expect from the last season.

What is the plot of Insecure season 5?

While no official synopsis has been provided, we can only assume the final season will revolve around Lawrence having a baby with another woman, Issa and Molly trying to repair their friendship, and Molly’s relationship status.

At the end of season four Issa and Molly finally swallow their pride and realise how much they’ve missed each other, after months of tension, back-stabbing and all round shadiness.

However showrunner Prentice Penny revealed fans shouldn’t expect to see Issa and Molly get back to normal so fast.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Penny said: ‘They’re going to be forever changed by this, forever humbled by this, and hopefully, forever close by this.

‘I don’t think it’s about getting them back to where they were. I think we’re always going to have a version of them having fun together because they’re friends, but I think we want to explore what is that road back like and how is that road different.’

Insecure returns to Sky Comedy on October 26.
