The series has also started filming in Vancouver as confirmed by the show's Facebook page. A brief video was posted that shows Nichols with her co-star Erik Knudsen who plays Alec on the show. Nichols says that they're filming their first day of the first shot that will be the last season of the program.

It was previously reported through Carter Matt that Continuum will have six episodes to finish the series. Nichols dished on how glad she is that the story can still be told even if it is for the last time.

"All great stories deserve an end," she said. "I am excited and grateful to finish Continuum with the riveting conclusion it deserves...this series finale is dedicated to the devoted fans who have loyally supported us since day one."

Senior Vice President of Content at Shaw Media Christine Shipton then implied that fans are definitely going to enjoy the upcoming episodes.

"Continuum's award-winning success on Showcase is a testament to the quality of our Canadian original productions...with executive producer Simon Barry at its helm, the fourth and final season of Continuum is bound to deliver a heroic conclusion to the futuristic series," Shipton said in a statement.
