Following its cancellation by SYFY, The Expanse has been picked up by Amazon for a fourth season.

Season three is currently airing on SYFY and was set to be its last. The show—based upon the novel series by James S.A. Corey, the pen name shared by collaborators Daniel Abraham and Ty Franck—will get a fourth season now thanks to Amazon.

Andrew Kosove and Broderick Johnson, co-founders and co-CEOs of Alcon Entertainment, said in a joint statement: “We couldn’t be more excited that The Expanse is going to continue on Amazon Prime! We are deeply grateful that Jeff Bezos, Jen Salke, and their team at Amazon have shown such faith in our show.  We also want to thank Laura Lancaster, head of Alcon Television, for her tireless efforts. We are fully aware that this wouldn’t have been possible if it wasn’t for the staggering outpouring of support from the most creative, hardest working sci-fi fans around the world. From reddit campaigns to airplanes, we say thank you. It worked!”
