The Internet Can’t Bear Saying Goodbye to ‘The Umbrella Academy’ and Its Magnificent Cast

With the fourth and final season of The Umbrella Academy Now, fans are flooding social media with tributes to the Netflix series and its cast, and it’s clear they’re not ready for this. Umbrella to close for the last time.

Created for television by Steve Blackman based on the comic book series of the same name by Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá, The Umbrella Academy is a dark, action-packed, sci-fi comedy-drama about a dysfunctional family of superhero siblings who reunite to solve the mystery of their father’s downfall – and maybe save the world.

The series won adoration from fans and critics alike, especially when actor Elliot Page’s real-life transition was sensitively reflected on screen.

In a conversation with TIMEPage said Blackman was one of the first people he came out to. “I called him nervously, and he was amazing,” he added. “He was actually the one who pushed for my transition to be a part of the show and supported me in accessing the care I was hoping to receive at that point.”

Unfortunately, a recent Rolling stone detailed presentation TUA employee allegations accusing Blackman of toxic, bullying and discriminatory behavior behind the scenes – allegations Blackman has denied.

But just like the magical world of Harry Potter is taller than JK Rowling, The Umbrella Academy is bigger than a man. And social media users have sung the praises of the other writers, crew and cast.

And what a great cast!

Along with Page (Viktor/The White Violin/Number Seven), the series’ adult superheroes are played by Tom Hopper (Luther/Spaceboy/Number One), David Castañeda (Diego/The Kraken/Number Two), Emmy Raver-Lampman (Allison/The Rumor/Number Three), Robert Sheehan (Klaus/The Séance/Number Four) and Justin H. Min (Ben/The Horror/Number Six), all of whom have inspired numerous thirst tweets.
