The new season of Outer Banks sets up the show’s final villain for season 5, and it’s not Chandler Groff. Marking the ending of the Netflix adventure series, season 5 of Outer Banks is tasked with offering the best quest yet. That surely means featuring more than one deadly opponent, many unexpected twists, and hopefully a lot of meaningful and fun moments between the beloved treasure hunters. The Outer Banks season 4 part 2 ending established JJ’s father as the Pogues’ next and most dangerous enemy, but there is one character that could prove a bigger threat.
After the finale’s various deaths, the Outer Banks season 5 cast might finally reveal the face of season 4’s most mysterious presence. Specifically, Lightner’s death can bring a whole new degree of danger to the Pogues’ revenge hunt. Not only does it sentence Pope to fall target to the Lupine Corsair’s blood-for-blood rule, but it can motivate the mercenaries’ boss to step up in the hunt after the Blue Crown. Although not much is known about Anton Finch, season 4 gives enough hints that suggest he will be Outer Banks ’ new and biggest villain.

Anton Finch Is Outer Banks’ Biggest Treasure Hunter
Through a series of subtle details, season 4 has introduced Finch as the mastermind behind some of the largest treasure hunts in the Outer Banks universe. As Shoupe investigates the body on the beach and its connection to Groff, he discovers both men got out of prison in a deal with a mysterious billionaire. From the Kildare police department’s perspective, the magnate is responsible for buying worldwide criminals’ exit from jail and sending them to combat zones to earn their freedom. However, the Lupine Corsairs’ path to liberation is clearly more shady and illegal than that.
Arms dealer, head of a foreign militia, and owner of “one of the world’s largest collections of artifacts,” Anton Finch is already season 4’s most intriguing character. The Outer Banks creators’ strange intentions to make him the evil figure in the shadows have sparked theories regarding a potential season 5 identity reveal. Whether Finch is someone new or part of another Outer Banks ancestor twist, his thirst for treasure sets him up to play a big role in the last season. While he could hire the Pogues to find the Blue Crown, everything signals he will become their newest villain.

Finch’s Search After Groff And The Blue Crown Makes Him The Pogues’ Biggest Threat
With Chandler Groff on his way to Lisbon with the Blue Crown, season 5 will have two groups going after him. Not only did he double-cross the Pogues by killing JJ in the Outer Banks season 4 ending, but he also betrayed the Lupine Corsairs. It remains to be seen whether the Pogues’ thirst for revenge will prove stronger than Finch’s desire for the invaluable artifact. However, the mercenary boss’ reputation is not to be ignored. Dalia and her men’s fear of failing their assignment reveals the Pogues don’t want to mess with the billionaire.
If the Pogues aren’t careful, they might be caught in the crossfire of his wrath, or worse, they might become his target.
Although John B, Pope, Cleo, Sarah, and Kiara consider Groff their number one enemy, that might soon change. Finch’s power over a selection of international criminals sets him up as the bigger threat in season 5. If the Pogues aren’t careful, they might be caught in the crossfire of his wrath, or worse, they might become his target. With Sarah’s baby on the way, and Poguelandia about to be built upon, the Outer Banks’ young treasure hunters have limited time to beat their adversaries — and this time, more than ever, their lives and future are on the line.
