Commission hot on the heels of season 3

The Marvelous Mrs Maisel has been renewed for a fourth season.

The news comes just a week after the third run of episodes dropped on Amazon Prime, telling of a 1950s housewife turned pioneering stand-up comic.

It stars  Rachel Brosnahan – who has just been nominated for a Golden Globe for her leard role – alongside Alex Borstein, who is currently performing in London’s Soho Theatre, and  Tony Shalhoub.

Showrunners Amy Sherman-Palladino and her husband Daniel Palladino said in a statement: ‘We were thrilled to hear that for the fourth time, we do not have to pack up and vacate the premises.

‘We’d like to thank Amazon for all their faith and support, their partnership and enthusiasm and for letting us hang with our favourite people, the cast and crew of Maisel, for a little while longer.’

Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke added: 'The Marvelous Mrs Maisel has been a worldwide phenomenon, and season three has been no exception, with the series' most-watched opening weekend ever.

‘Amy and Dan have created such funny, charming, relatable characters, all with their inimitable wit and eye for detail, and our customers around the world will be delighted to have another season.
