Amazon Prime Video announced that Season 4 of “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” will premiere on Feb. 18 with two new episodes dropping every Friday for four weeks, and also released the first teaser.
The series follows Miriam “Midge” Maisel (Rachel Brosnahan), a Jewish housewife in New York City who becomes a stand-up comedian after her husband leaves her for his secretary. Season 4 begins in 1960, and looking to hone her act, Midge finds a gig with total creative freedom, but her commitment to her craft creates a rift between her and her loved ones. Tony Shalhoub, Alex Bornstein, Marin Hinkle, Michael Zegen, Kevin Pollak, Caroline Aaron and Luke Kirby also star. Guest stars this season include Kelly Bishop, Milo Ventimiglia, John Waters and Jason Alexander.
“You know what’s great about me? It’s when I’m me,” Midge says to her manager Susie (Bornstein) in the teaser, which you can watch below. “No more opening act gigs. I will only do gigs where I can say what I want.”
“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” is written, directed and executive produced by creator Amy Sherman-Palladino and Daniel Palladino.
