Wynonna Earp (/waɪˈnoʊnə ˈɜːrp/ wy-NOH-nə URP) is a supernatural Western television series developed by Emily Andras, and based on the comic book series by Beau Smith. Melanie Scrofano portrays the titular character, the great-great-granddaughter of legendary lawman Wyatt Earp who returns to her hometown of Purgatory, near the Canadian Rockies, where she battles revenants, the reincarnated outlaws that Wyatt killed. The series also stars Shamier Anderson, Tim Rozon, Dominique Provost-Chalkley, and Katherine Barrell in main roles.

In July 2017, the series was renewed for a third season which premiered on July 20, 2018. In July 2018, the series was renewed for a fourth season, which later remained in limbo for several months due to financial difficulties at production company IDW Entertainment.
