NETFLIX ORDERS FINAL SEASON OF the KILLING, FROM FOX TELEVISION STUDIOS, EXCLUSIVELY FOR ITS STREAMING MEMBERS IN NETFLIX TERRITORIES

Beverly Hills, CA 18 November 2013 - Netflix has ordered a fourth and final limited season that will serve as a conclusion for The Killing, exclusively for its over 40 million members worldwide. The 6-episode series finale, from Fox Television Studios (FTVS), will be available only to Netflix streaming members to watch instantly in all Netflix territories.

The rich, serialized storytelling in The Killing thrives on Netflix, and we believe that it is only fitting to give Sarah Linden and Stephen Holder a proper send off, said Cindy Holland, vice president of original content for Netflix. We are looking forward to offering fans - both existing and new - a series that we know is perfectly suited for on-demand viewing.

David Madden, president, Fox Television Studios, commented, It's a true testament to The Killing' creator Veena Sud, and the stellar cast led so compellingly by Mireille Enos and Joel Kinnaman, that fans remained so passionate about the show. We're gratified that our partners at Netflix recognized this, and are giving us the opportunity to complete the story in a way that will be satisfying to our loyal audience."

The first three seasons of The Killing are now available to stream globally on Netflix.

Based on the Danish programme Forbrydelsen, The Killing follows various murder investigations led by homicide detectives Sarah Linden (Mireille Enos) and Stephen Holder (Joel Kinnaman). Seasons one and two chronicled the Rosie Larsen case, with Linden and Holder investigating the murder of a teenage girl. Picking up one year after the close of that investigation, season three followed the detectives on their search for a runaway girl, leading them to discover a gruesome string of murders that connected to a previous investigation by Linden.

The Killing is created and executive-produced by Veena Sud. Mikkel Bondesen is executive producer for Fabrik Entertainment. Kristen Campo also serves as co-executive producer for Fabrik. The Killing is produced by Fox Television Studios for Netflix.
