If you're a fan of Wynonna Earp, you probably felt the sting when the series ended after four glorious seasons in 2021. But guess what? Our favorite demon-slaying heroine is back in Wynonna Earp: Vengeance, and oh boy, is she bringing the heat—or should I say the "Earping"—to a completely new level.
Wynonna Earp: Vengeance is a movie-length special, bringing Wynonna and the gang back to the screen after a three-year hiatus. Set to debut on Tubi on September 13, 2024, this revival promises a rollercoaster of emotions. And by rollercoaster, I mean the kind that has you laughing, crying, and possibly throwing up a little from the sheer intensity of it all. Emily Andras, the mastermind behind the series, promised nothing less than that in recent interviews.
The movie picks up 18 months after the series finale, which means Wynonna has had some time to reflect—or, more likely, to find new ways to get herself into trouble. From the get-go, this installment pulls no punches. Wynonna is facing what could be her most terrifying villain yet—a psychotic adversary who’s hellbent on revenge against her and anyone she cares about. If you've been through the emotional ringer with Wynonna before, you know that when she says this is her "scariest villain," you should probably brace yourself.
What makes Vengeance stand out is how it manages to balance its iconic humor with raw, intense emotion. Wynonna has always been a character who can deliver a sarcastic quip in the middle of a gunfight, but this time, the stakes are higher than ever. Melanie Scrofano’s portrayal of Wynonna is as sharp as ever—there’s just something about her mix of sass, vulnerability, and unrelenting toughness that makes her so compelling to watch.
And let's not forget the ensemble cast. Tim Rozon as Doc Holliday, Dominique Provost-Chalkley as Waverly Earp, and Katherine Barrell as Nicole Haught all return, and they haven’t skipped a beat. Whether it's the sizzling chemistry between Doc and Wynonna or the heartwarming love story between Waverly and Nicole, Vengeance feels like a welcome reunion with old friends. These characters are just as flawed, loveable, and badass as ever.
One of the things I love about Wynonna Earp is how it doesn’t shy away from exploring deep, emotional territory while still keeping things fun. Sure, Wynonna’s life is full of demons—both literal and metaphorical—but the series always finds a way to make us laugh amid the chaos. And this special seems to be no exception. According to the cast and crew, the heart, wit, and action-packed sequences that fans loved are all present and accounted for. Moreover, there’s a strong sense that this is Wynonna at her "Earpiest," whatever that means—and if you're an Earper, you know that means we're in for a wild ride.
The production of this special also brings back the series’ signature style: that gritty, supernatural Western vibe that made the show so unique. It’s as if the town of Purgatory never really left our minds, and the visuals immediately pull you back into that world. Directed by Paolo Barzman and written by Andras herself, Vengeance has all the ingredients to satisfy long-time fans while also inviting newcomers into the fold. It’s both a love letter to the loyal fanbase and a fresh chapter in the story.
Of course, it wouldn’t be Wynonna Earp without some twists and surprises, so don’t expect everything to be tied up with a neat little bow. If there’s one thing this series has taught us, it’s to expect the unexpected. There's plenty here to keep you on the edge of your seat, whether that’s in the form of shocking character choices, jaw-dropping plot twists, or just Wynonna being Wynonna.
So, what’s the final verdict? If you’ve ever loved Wynonna Earp, then Vengeance is an absolute must-watch. It’s everything you’d want from a revival—more action, more heart, and more of that chaotic, loveable energy that made us fall in love with the series in the first place. Plus, it’s a chance to see Wynonna face her most terrifying challenge yet, and let’s be real: we wouldn’t miss that for the world.
