The drama, which first captured audiences in April 2020, is geared towards a thrilling conclusion, promising an intense journey for the beloved characters known as the Pogues.
In the newly released minute-long teaser, soundtracked by the band alt-J’s catchy track “Left Hand Free,” viewers are given a glimpse into the aftermath of the shocking events that transpired in season four. The trailer features familiar faces, including John B, played by Chase Stokes, who can be heard exclaiming, “Let’s get this son of a b—-,” signalling the fiery determination of the group.
As the teaser unfolds, audiences are treated to a montage of dramatic scenes: characters wielding knives, lively beach celebrations, high-speed police pursuits, and gunfire, culminating in a massive explosion instigated by Cleo, portrayed by Carlacia Grant.

According to a synopsis provided by Netflix, season five finds the Pogues at a critical juncture, grappling with the emotional aftermath of JJ’s tragic loss during their escapades in Morocco.

The season will portray the Pogues as they navigate various threats, including the ominous presence of Chandler Groff (played by J. Anthony Crane), the Corsairs led by Dalia (Pollyanna McIntosh), and the continuous harassment from the Kooks. With their home no longer a safe haven, John B, Sarah (Madelyn Cline), Kiara (Madison Bailey), Pope (Jonathan Daviss), and Cleo must rely on their wits and instincts. This season also introduces a tenuous alliance with Rafe (Drew Starkey), raising questions about trust and survival amidst turmoil.
The stakes are undeniably high as the synopsis reveals that the Pogues are engaged in a “desperate race to reclaim their future,” setting the stage for a gripping final showdown. Their quest for vengeance for their lost friend might prove to be the ultimate test of their unity and resolve.
