20 Questions On Deadline Podcast: Mark Duplass On ‘The Morning Show’ Season 4 Shooting Next Month & How The Election Might Be Handled
deadline.comThis week’s 20 Questions on Deadline guest is Mark Duplass. Fans of The Morning Show will be delighted to hear Duplass confirm his return “in some shape or form” for the upcoming Season 4, as put-upon producer Chip Black.
Duplass also reveals that Season 4 will begin shooting a month from now. With Season 3 showrunner Charlotte Stoudt in place once again for Season 4, how the upcoming election will be worked into the show remains to be seen.

Shooting this summer, Season 4 is slated to air sometime next year. “My assumption is that we’re going to airing the show well after that election has happened,” Duplass said. “So my instinct is that while The Morning Show does chase current events, and we have historically, in the past, with the #MeToo movement and Covid, and everything that happened with women’s rights in Season 3, I don’t know that the election is even possible to chase, just with the logistical timeline of it.” Chip was last seen performing a shock live on-air takedown of Paul Marks (Jon Hamm), the tech billionaire vulture circling their broadcasting company.
As Chip declares to camera that Marks, who plans to dismantle the UBA network, is devolving the vital fourth estate, he also points out that Marks’ space rockets “look like giant metal d***s”.
