Paramount+ renew hit thriller with A-list star for fourth series as fans declare ‘this is a great gift’ before Christmas
PARAMOUNT+ have renewed a hit thriller with an A-list star for a fourth series and fans have gone wild with praise.
Jeremy Renner star of the American crime thriller series Mayor of Kingstown posted an update on social media asking if viewers were ready for a new season.
In the show, Jeremy plays Mike McLusky, who starts as the right-hand man for his older brother, Mitch, but takes over as Mayor after Mitch’s death in the first episode.
As the middle son of the McLusky childen, Mike has spent his life dreaming of getting out of Kingstown.
In later episodes he is shown to have once been an inmate in the Kingstown prison and rose to the rank of “Shot-Caller”.
In his personal life, Jeremy was run down by a seven-ton snow plough in January 2023 as he battled to free a trapped family member from the immense snow drifts surrounding his home in Lake Tahoe, California.
Authorities said “Renner tried to use the snow plough to free a relative whose vehicle had become stuck in the snow.”
The star told Men’s Health: “I could see my left eyeball with my right eyeball.
“I was screaming for a breath.
“I needed to shove all my energy of air out just so I could suck air back in.”
He added of his long recovery: “It took me 17 minutes to get out of bed.
“I was happy to sometimes sit up and push myself into a chair.”
He astounded his medical team and fans alike when he managed to make a miraculous recovery, and return to film a third season of Mayor of Kingstown in January this year.
Now viewers of the hit show have rushed to express their excitement that another run is on the way.
One fan stated: “Congratulations on the renewal Jeremy!”
Another stated: “So happy to hear. One of the very best streaming shows on TV. Excellent writing!”
“Yes, I’m ready for season 4. It’ll be interesting to see how the character Mike deal with Iris’s passing. It broke my heart to see her go. Especially in the manner she went.” expressed another.
Another added: “Jeremy — it’s a helluva show. So glad you had the remarkable grit and drive to make it all the way back. You’re a great actor and a person we all can believe in.”
“So excited for season 4! I’m happy to see you back at it doing so well! I hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!” said another.
In season 3 Mike attempted to rid Kingstown of Konstantin’s men and Bunny’s military style weapons, as well as taking care of Konstantin.
The series was full of explosions as a new face of the Russian mob set up shop in the city, while a drug war raged inside and outside prison walls.
But then things got complicated when someone from his past undermined the Mike’s attempts to solve the town’s problems.
The Mayor of Kingstown is available to stream on Paramount+
