During his presentation at the Television Critics Association winter press tour, FX Networks CEO John Landgraf said series creator Noah Hawley has an idea for the fourth season.

"It's not gone... Noah Hawley, who has become quite a busy bee... has told us that he has an idea that excited me enormously for a fourth cycle of 'Fargo' and the plan is to have that ready in 2019.

"The anticipation is there will be another cycle of 'Fargo' in 2019," Landgraf said, according to Entertainment Weekly.
