Invincible season 2 release schedule: When is episode 5 out?
Time for another dose of Invincible.
Amazon Prime Video’s animated series Invincible just concluded its first half with a shocking midseason finale and, naturally, fans are wondering when the next episodes will be released - including the highly-anticipated episode 5.
The initial run has seen Mark Grayson (Steven Yeun) attempting to make amends following the massacre he involuntarily caused as he battled his father, Nolan, aka Omni-Man (JK Simmons), in Chicago.
However, fans have got a while to wait with the series taking a mid-season break.
Executive producer Simon Racioppa recently gave a bit of a clue about a potential release date, telling Geekcentric: "Those four episodes were hopefully emotionally draining in some places, exciting in others.
"Hopefully, they make you think for the next few weeks or months to just make you reflect on it, so that you don’t just forget it. That’s what I’m hoping people will take back.”
Here's everything you need to know about when to expect the final episode of Invincible season 2 part 1.
When is the Invincible season 2 episode 5 release date?
Episode 5 of the second season of Invincible will premiere 'early in 2024'.
An exact release date is yet to be confirmed.
Speaking at San Diego Comic Con 2023, Robert Kirkman, creator of the original comic, explained the reasoning behind the decision to split season 2 into two halves: "With everything going on in that time of year with, you know, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's and a lot of family time, I think a lot of shows get lost in the shuffle there.
"So I think it's good to take a pause, and narratively it's going to make things hit a little bit harder. People will know what I'm talking about when the season launches."
While Invincible’s track record with breaks between new seasons and episodes isn’t amazing, Kirkman has said there won’t ever be a gap between seasons as large as the one between seasons 1 and 2.
When asked about how production on season 3 was going, he told Collider: "I can’t say. Far enough along that there won’t be a similar gap between season 2 and season 3."
He continued: "This is the pain. This area right now is the pain for Invincible fans. So once we’re through this, once season 2 comes out, hopefully, it should be smooth sailing from there on. There won’t be these big, large gaps, theoretically."
What time do Invincible season 2 episodes come out?
Prime Video typically releases new episodes of its shows, including Invincible, at 12am UTC, or Universal Time Coordinated. However, it's not 12am everywhere in the world at that time! So here is an idea of when to expect each new Invincible episode:
- Pacific Time - 5pm
- Eastern Time - 8pm
- UK Time - 1am
- Europe Time - 2am
