Will there be a sixth season of Jane the Virgin?

No, sadly not. The fifth and final season will be the last, and that's what the show's producers and creator Jennie Snyder Urman have always intended. "[We've] always known when it was going to end," Executive Producer Brad Silberling told Metro. "It will be 100 episodes when it's done and 100 is exactly where Jennie [Snyder Urman] always hoped it could end the story. So it's perfect."

Is a Jane the Virgin spin-off in the works?

A planned spin-off called Jane the Novela was scrapped after the pilot stage. The show was to be an anthology series, with each season based on a different story written and narrated by Jane (with Gina Rodriguez set to lend her voice).

The first instalment was to be set at a Napa Valley vineyard with Desperate Housewives' Marcia Cross, Hunter Parrish (Weeds) and Jane the Virgin star Ivonne Coll as cast members. However, The CW decided not to go ahead with the series.

Who is in the cast for Jane the Virgin season 5?

Gina Rodriguez leads the way as the titular character, who is now a mother and struggling novelist, caught between two men, Michael (Brett Dier) and Rafael (Justin Baldoni).
