"Longmire" posted a photo on its Facebook page, and it could be hinting at the new season's story.

The post on Jan. 5 is a picture of Walt and Vic, and it is captioned as: "What does the future hold for Walt and Vic?" The post could be alluding to the possibility of a future relationship between the two. 

The "Longmire" book series has romantic conflicts between Vic and Walt. Would the television's new season focus on the opposite? The Facebook post teases that there would probably be a budding romance that will be established in the new season. 

The Facebook post received mixed reactions from fans. Some were happy about the idea of Walt and Vic as a loving couple, while still others don't agree, saying that Walt is too old for Vic. In the previous seasons, Walt was already linked to a certain Dr. Donna Monaghan, who he shared some passionate scenes with.

Meanwhile, the identity of the man who intruded into Walt's house might also be a major highlight of this new season. Some suspect that this intruder could be Browning or Bailey Chase's Deputy Branch Connally. In the previous scenes, Browning was found missing after being confined in the hospital while Connally was no longer visible in the show since the third season.

Netflix has not released a teaser video regarding the newest season for "Longmire." However, people are speculating that since the fourth season was released in September, the new season could be released this coming September as well. Others are also thinking that this new season will have the same number of episodes as the current one, which has 10 episodes.

The first three seasons of "Longmire" were shown on A&E contract, but this ended after season 3. Netflix then came into the picture and carried the show's season 4, and is now about to begin producing season 5.
