We will learn what became of Tom Chandler — and what new threats await the Nathan James — when The Last Ship launches Season 4 with a two-hour premiere on Sunday, Aug. 20 at 9/8c, TNT has announced.

In addition to Eric Dane, the returning cast includes Adam Baldwin, Travis Van Winkle, Marissa Neitling, Christina Elmore, Jocko Sims, Bren Foster, Bridget Regan, Charles Parnell and Kevin Michael Martin, as the heroes face “a new mission to save humanity as the world continues to struggle for survival” in the wake of the first seasons’ viral outbreak/warfare.

The Last Ship was renewed last year for two additional seasons, which have been filming back-to-back and will each run 10 episodes. Production on Season 5, to air in summer 2018, was recently paused while series lead Dane dealt with personal issues related to depression.
