Trailer Alert! Get a Sneak Peek at Hacks Season 4 and the Hilarious Tension Between Deborah and Ava
Speaking of getting hyped Max also dropped a trailer for season 4 and it looks amazing . If you were worried that Deborah and Ava's dynamic might change now that they are working together on Deborah's late-night show think again. The trailer makes it super clear that the tension and hilarious rivalry are still very much alive and kicking.
In the trailer we see Deborah and Ava navigating the challenges of launching this new show. Deborah is well Deborah - still demanding still hilarious and still delivering those killer one-liners. Ava is trying to keep up as head writer but clearly things are not exactly smooth sailing between them. We see classic Deborah sarcasm directed at Ava. Think lines like "Aren't you a big brave girl?" delivered with peak Jean Smart perfection. Ava is still giving it right back though with her signature witty comebacks. It's the push-pull dynamic we all love but now in a high-stakes late-night TV setting.
The trailer hints at some physical comedy too including a trust fall gone wrong for Ava and a race car scene with Deborah and Ava seemingly going head-to-head. Looks like season 4 is going to be packed with both sharp dialogue and laugh-out-loud physical humor. Check out the trailer if you haven't already it is pure Hacks gold.
