The fifth installment of Van Helsing was released in April 2021. And as usual, the fans had just one question to ask. Any guesses? Yes, you’re right! The question was, is Netflix going to renew the supernatural horror show Van Helsing? Are we getting Van Helsing season 6 soon?
If you are one of those eager fans, you are in the right place because we did our homework so that you don’t have to. Now, if you wish to be updated on the renewal, continue reading the article.
Quick question, how many days did it take for you to binge-watch the fifth season?
Van Helsing Season 6 Release Date
Season 5 of Van Helsing was renewed in 2019, a short time after season 4 aired. Keeping this in mind, the fandom expected the renewal news of season 6 to come out by the end of June or in early July.
But instead of renewal news, people discovered that season 5 of Van Helsing was released as the last installment of the series. So this means that there won’t be any new seasons of Van Helsing.
Being a fan myself, I understand the emotions you must be going through right now. But to make things better, I’ve stopped hoping for a 6th season.
So a piece of friendly advice; you should also do the same (it hurts a bit less).
But keeping all things aside, if the writers and Netflix change their decision, then the sixth installment will most likely be released by the end of 2023. For now, obviously, there is no release date for the 6th season. But don’t be disheartened because there might be a reunion sort of episode coming out soon?
But for now, we’ll immensely miss our post-apocalyptic world.
Will there be changes in the cast for Van Helsing season 6?
If the show were to continue, we’d most likely see the same faces again. But never say never to new beginnings; if the story goes forward in a different direction, there might be a possibility of seeing new actors.
In case you are planning to watch Van Helsing. Prepare yourself to fall in love with these actors (and their characters):
- Kelly Overton as Vanessa Van Helsing
- Jonathan Scarfe as Axel Miller,
- Vincent Gale as Phil
- Christopher Heyerdahl as Samuel
- Aleks Paunovic as Julius
- Caroline Cave as Jolene
But the above actors are just a few of the many actors that you’ll get to see in the entirety of 5 seasons.
Plot
After a volcanic eruption, the sky gets blocked by ash, giving vampires a way into the human world. The entirety of humanity is destroyed except this one person, the protagonist of the story, Vanessa Van Helsing.
*spoiler alert*
Vanessa Van Helsing was kept safe by a doctor and Marine (another important character). But why was she kept safe?
The answer lies in her unique blood composition; Vanessa Van is no normal human. She possesses an unusual power that can turn a vampire into a human.
The story then unfolds how the vampires are after her and the way she escapes from them.
The later seasons also keep up with the interesting story, so if you are an avid watcher of supernatural shows, consider watching this masterpiece.
Back to the real question; what will season 6 revolve around?
Interesting question, but don’t worry about it much because there are very few chances of renewal. However, if you insist, I’ll tell you my assumptions.
As they ended season 5, nothing is interesting left with the battle between Van Helsings and Dark One. But we should never underestimate the writers. They might come up with spinoffs, exploring the backstories of characters, or maybe something about events that led to their character development.
Trailer
We don’t even know if Netflix will release a 6th season (even a spin-off, reunion, or basically anything with the cast in it), so naturally, there is no trailer for Van Helsing’s new season.
It is hard to move on from your favorite shows, and the only thing you can do to help yourself is start binge-watching another show.
If you are looking for something similar to Van Helsing’s plot, then I’m sure you are going to love Shadowhunters.
