Netflix's 'Lost in Space' will be coming back for a third & final season

Netflix's remake of Lost In Space will be wrapping up its story for one final season. The third and final season will be coming to the streaming service in 2021. But the news shouldn't come as a surprise. Its executive producer/showrunner Zack Estrin admitted that Lost In Space had been developed to be a trilogy with a clear beginning, middle, and end. "If anyone deserves to catch their breath before their next mission—it's Will, Penny, Judy, Maureen, John, Don West, Dr. Smith... and The Robot," Estrin said.

The end of Lost In Space doesn't mean the end of their partnership with Netflix. He has agreed to a multi-year deal to produce new series exclusively for the service.

Google Pixel 4a will reportedly have a US$399 price tag

The physical Google I/O event isn't happening, so we aren't sure when the company will introduce the Google Pixel 4a. But a recent leak from famous leaker Evan Blass shared a teaser of the Pixel 4a with its possible design and price. Blass shared the details in billboard mockups that illustrate how Google might promote the device. One of the most significant hints he's given is that the Pixel 4a will reportedly get a US$399 (around CA$552) price tag.

The leak shows a punch-hole display, square camera bump, and a blue colour variant that has been rumoured before. And there's a push to promote Maps, Assistant, and Photos here, suggesting that the Pixel 4a will also get the "new" Google Assistant introduced with the regular Pixel 4.
