When will The Last Kingdom season 5 be released on Netflix?

Netflix has not said that they will be releasing a season five of The Last Kingdom, at this present time.

This doesn’t mean that there won’t be an announcement regarding a possible season five soon.

When season three of the show came out in November 2018, Netflix didn’t announce season four’s release until a month later.

Seeing as there is a high demand for the show, there is no reason why Netflix will not produce a season five for The Last Kingdom.

Many production studios have been closed due to coronavirus, so if Netflix do decide to go ahead with another season, it will likely not be for quite some time.
