With the final season of<\/strong> Insecure<\/em><\/strong> approaching, fans have been hoping for a spinoff series in the future. While nothing has been set in stone, Issa Rae revealed to ET in an interview that there\u2019s certainly a possibility that season five won\u2019t be the last time that we\u2019ll see the cast that we\u2019ve grown so attached to throughout the years. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, even if a spinoff fails to occur, Rae <\/strong>confirmed<\/strong><\/a> that the last season will have more than the usual eight episodes, so we\u2019ll be able to cherish the show for a bit longer. Due to the pandemic which has caused multiple false starts and obstacles, filming is still in progress. \u201c<\/strong>When people ask if shooting the season is bittersweet, I say it’s mostly sweet and the only bitter part is the fact that COVID is in place because it just doesn’t allow us to fully immerse ourselves in the experience and each other and you know, properly saying goodbye,\u201d said Rae. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rae has been preparing to say goodbye since the third season. “I’ve been wrapping my head around this since, candidly, season 3,” she said. “But I’m so grateful to be able to play this character, who is obviously a version of me, and in the same way that I want this character to grow, I want to be able to grow too. So I think that’s what comes with it — I’ve played her for a long time, and I have so much more that I want to do.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In regards to what\u2019s in store for the final season, Rae wouldn\u2019t reveal any details, but she expressed her satisfaction with the conclusion of the show. While pleasing everyone isn\u2019t realistic, she\u2019s hopeful that most fans will also share her sentiments about the ending. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As<\/strong> Insecure <\/em><\/strong>wraps up, Rae feels \u201cover the moon with potential\u201d as she steps into the future. She has signed a five-year deal with WarnerMedia, which opens the doors for incredible opportunities.  For one of the first projects, she\u2019s landed an eight-episode order by HBO Max for her upcoming comedy titled<\/strong> Rap Sh*t<\/em><\/strong>, which will follow two former high school friends from Miami who reunite to form a rap group together. “It feels so good to be able to have the trust of Warner and HBO, the HBO family, and their properties, to give us free rein like that,” she exclaimed. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
