Ozark 4 Part 1 trailer: Jason Bateman and Laura Linney as Byrdes are set for a final showdown

Ozark season four is set to be released in two parts, and the first volume will stream on Netflix from January 21, 2022. Now, the streamer has dropped the much-awaited trailer for Ozark: Season 4 Part 1, much to the excitement of the fans. The series, featuring Jason Bateman and Laura Linney in the lead roles, shows the Byrdes appearing to be on the verge of breaking free from the cartel, but deteriorating familial relationships may prove to be their undoing.

Julia Garner, Sofia Hublitz, Skylar Gaertner, Charlie Tahan, Jessica Frances Dukes, Lisa Emery, Felix Solis, Damian Young, Alfonso Herrera, Adam Rothenberg, John Bedford Lloyd, Joseph Sikora, Bruno Bichir, CC Castillo, Katrina Lenk, Bruce Davison, Ali Stroker, and Veronica Falcón star in the new season. 

Nominated for an Emmy Award as showrunner, writer, and executive producer, Chris Mundy returns. Executive producers are Bateman, Mark Williams, John Shiban, Patrick Markey, and Bill Dubuque. Linney is a Co-Executive Producer on the film. The show is produced by MRC Television.

For the uninitiated, Ozark is a riveting contemporary thriller that chronicles the Byrde family on their journey from suburban Chicago to a hazardous criminal business in Ozarks, Missouri. Through the viewpoint of (anything but) regular Americans, the series examines capitalism, family dynamics, and survival.

The Byrde family has been dragged from Chicago to the Missouri Ozarks, where a financial consultant must launder $500 million in five years to please a drug lord.

Critics have praised Ozark's tone, acting, directing, and narrative, and it has gotten mostly excellent reviews. The show has been nominated for 32 Primetime Emmy Awards, including two for Outstanding Drama Series, with Bateman winning Outstanding Directing for a Drama Series in 2019 and Julia Garner receiving Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series twice in a row in 2019 and 2020. Bateman has been nominated for two more Golden Globe Awards for Best Actor in a Television Series Drama.
