Production is underway on the fourth season of the Emmy® award-winning series Nowhere Boys. Currently filming in and around Melbourne, the 13 x 30 min supernatural action, adventure series will premiere later this year on ABC ME and the ABC ME app.
This year, the gang return from a summer of magical training more powerful than ever – and with a new member. But the New Year brings new threats, when a series of elemental attacks hit Bremin. The gang fear their powers are the cause of the trouble as dark, chaotic forces descend, challenging the gang’s unity as they battle to save the entire multiverse. They also must balance their personal lives with their magical obligations. Growing up is hard enough without having to rescue the multiverse as well, as the gang search for their place in the world. What will they sacrifice for each other?
“Nowhere Boys has been a huge hit with the ABC ME audience since its premiere in 2012 and we’re thrilled to be working with Matchbox Pictures again to offer fans another instalment of this outstanding action-packed series. The announcement of one of the original Nowhere Boys returning for this series will add to fans excitement and anticipation.” Michael Carrington, Head of ABC Children’s Television commented.
“We are so thrilled to get the Nowhere Boys back together and start filming in locations across Melbourne. This season the stakes are higher than ever – more mystery, action, fun, adventure with loads of stunts and special effects. I really think the fans will love the direction as we push deeper into the mythology and origins of magic in Bremin.” Series Producer, Beth Frey commented. Frey went on to explain that the returning cast include Kamil Ellis (Luke), Joe Klocek (Heath), William McKenna (Ben), Jordie Race-Coldrey (Jesse), and Luca Sardelis (Nicco) are joined this season by musician Joel Ma (aka Joelistics) in his TV debut as Zeb and Elaine Crombie (Top Of The Lake, Black Comedy) as Brianna. This season also sees a special return from one of the original Nowhere Boys. But, you’ll just have to wait to see who might be back in Bremin…
“We’re thrilled to again support the production of Nowhere Boys, which has become one of Australia’s most beloved children’s titles. It’s imperative that Australians can hear their own voices and see their own stories on screen, no matter what age they are, and we congratulate the ABC in not only commissioning season four but making the series available on multiple devices to meet the demands of this teenage audience.” Screen Australia Investment Manager, Shana Levine commented.
