Spin Master’s Unicorn Academy returned for its second season in June 2024. Thankfully, the show will be returning for two additional chapters in the form of one-off specials, with the first arriving in April and the other arriving in November later this year.
The animated series tells the story of Sophia, Wildstar, and all of their Unicorn Academy pals. It first premiered on Netflix in November 2023 with its first nine episodes, with the follow-up coming last summer. It wasn’t clear whether the show would be returning, given that it was only ordered upfront with two seasons. The show has featured in the top 10s in over 70 countries and dominated the kids top 10s in many countries such as the UK and US where it’s spent 41 and 62 days there respectively. The show is also a permanent fixture in countries like India (468 days in the top 10), Romania (443 days), Denmark (152 days), and all across Europe. According to the Netflix Engagement Reports covering 2023 and 2024 viewing, the show has picked up over 200 million viewing hours globally, equating to 44.50 million views.
As first announced by Netflix earlier this week, we’ve now had clarification that we’re getting two specials in 2025, albeit they’ll be labeled as Chapters. On April 9th, 2025, Netflix will debut Unicorn Academy: Legendary Summer, and later this year, on November 6th, they’ll debut Winter Solstice (Chapter 4) as part of Netflix’s Christmas lineup. The episode runtimes will be 60 minutes and 44 minutes, respectively.
The voice cast for the next chapter includes:
- Gabriella Kosmidis as Isabel Armstrong
- Kamaia Fairburn as Layla Fletcher
- Sadie Laflamme-Snow as Ava Banji
- Kolton Stewart as Rory Carmichael
- Kari Wong as Valentina Furi
- Sara Garcia as Sophia Mendoza

Jurassic World: Chaos Theory is the big release of the quarter; its third season is scheduled to launch on April 3rd. Other titles coming up in March include Plankton: The Movie, CoComelon Lane Season 4, and Wolf King.
