SPY×FAMILY will return for a fourth anime season and a new film opening in Japan in 2027.

The SPY×FAMILY anime staff announced its next television season and theatrical project on Sunday. A fourth-season visual accompanied the news, and the new film will reach Japanese theaters in 2027.

The anime's television run so far includes:

  • Season 1: its first half premiered in April 2022, followed by its second half in October 2022.
  • Season 2: premiered in October 2023 and aired for 12 episodes.
  • Season 3: premiered in October 2025 and had 13 episodes.

SPY×FAMILY Code: White opened in Japan in December 2023 and topped the Japanese box office in its first weekend. The film is an all-new work with an original story. Crunchyroll opened it in North America in April 2024.

Viz Media publishes Tatsuya Endō's original, ongoing manga in English. Its description follows master spy Twilight, the best at undercover work on dangerous missions for a better world.

His seemingly impossible next assignment is to get married and have a child so he can infiltrate an elite private school. Accustomed to relying on himself, Twilight struggles to find both. He does not know his chosen wife is an assassin or his adopted child is a telepath.

Endō launched the manga on Shonen Jump+ in March 2019. Shueisha published its 18th compiled volume on November 4. The publisher simultaneously releases the manga in English on MANGA Plus.

Viz Media added the manga to its app through its Shonen Jump subscription in September 2019. The company also publishes it in print.

The first SPY×FAMILY stage musical ran from March to May 2023. The second stage musical ran from September to December 2025. The Nagoya run of the first musical streamed outside Japan with English subtitles on July 6.

The sequel, SPY×FAMILY 2: Doggy Bomb Arc & Luxury Cruise Ship Arc (SPY×FAMILY 2: Bakudan Inu-hen & Gōka Kyakusen-hen), adapts the respective manga arcs. Its five tour stops are:

  • Tokyo Tatemono Brilllia Hall: ran from September 22 to October 29.
  • Hakataza Theater, Fukuoka: running in November.
  • Hyogo Performing Arts Center KOBELCO Main Hall: will run in December.
  • Misono-za, Nagoya: will run in December.
  • Yamagin Prefectural Hall, Yamagata: will run in December.
