Netflix has renewed Lost in Space for a third and final season.

The streaming network's ambitious reimagining of the 1965 series of the same name will come to an end when the season airs, likely to be sometime next year.

But don't be sad, the executive producers are going to wrap the story up in a nice little bow.

Executive producer Zack Estrin said they created the series on the premise that it was only going to have three seasons and they are happy with the way it's ending.

Estrin said: "From the beginning, we've always viewed this particular story of The Robinsons as a trilogy.

"A three part epic family adventure with a clear beginning, middle and end. It's also worth noting that, with what these characters go through just trying to survive each episode - 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.

"And, of course, Debbie the Chicken.

"So while this chapter of Lost in Space is coming to a rousing conclusion, I'm excited about continuing to explore new stories with my friends at Netflix, and for all of the incredible possibilities that lie ahead."

Estrin used the announcement of the show's end to also reveal he had signed a multi-year overall deal with Netflix.

The show is centred on the Robinson family, who has been selected for the 24th mission of the Resolute, an interstellar spacecraft that helps families colonise the Alpha Centauri star system.

But instead of completing their mission, the Resolute comes into contact with an alien robot and the Robinsons are forced onto an unknown planet, where they have to learn to survive.

Ted Biaselli, director of original series at Netflix, said it will be sad to say goodbye to the Robinson family and the rest of the cast and crew.

He said: "We are so thrilled to share more adventures of The Robinson Family and see their journey through to what is sure to be an epic finale.

"We're especially thankful to Zack Estrin, Matt Sazama, Burk Sharpless, Kevin Burns and Jon Jashni for helming Lost in Space, which has brought viewers a premium action-packed and visually spectacular series that the whole family can enjoy together, and we can't wait for our family audiences to see where season 3 will lead!"

There's no official release date for the third and final season so we will keep you updated.
