Steven will reportedly turn into a fortune-teller in the next episode of "Steven Universe" season 4.

According to the synopsis for the episode, titled "Fortune Boy Zoltron," Steven will tell people's fortunes while he spends time at the Funland. This could mean that he will ask the help of Sapphire, since she is the only Gem that has the ability to see someone's future. Does it also mean that Steven and his best friend, Connie, will have to set their training aside so he can spend time predicting the future in the upcoming episode?

The episode is slated to air on Cartoon Network on Thursday, Sept. 1.

Meanwhile, series creator Rebecca Sugar described how they came up with the theme for the Emmy-nominated episode titled "The Answer," which centered on the back story of Garnet.

"We wanted to give Garnet the ultimate animated fairy tale love story, with imagery inspired by all our favorite animated fairy tale love stories of all time," Sugar told The Wrap. "We started by drawing influence from Lotte Reiniger, creator of the oldest surviving animated feature film, 'The Adventures of Prince Achmed.' The film is done with Lotte Reiniger's signature silhouette animation technique and the compositions are stunning. We referenced the silhouetted characters, but also the dense, lush, ornate background compositions in the film."

She also revealed that they also got the influence for Garnet's original form from "Sleeping Beauty," particularly in her pink and blue appearance. The popular fairy tale also inspired Ruby and Sapphire's dance by the water.

Sugar also said that she loved working on Amethyst during "Steven Universe" season 3.

"Amethyst and Steven often take a back seat, since Garnet is in charge, and Pearl likes to feel like she's in charge. It's been exciting to get to unpack that Steven and Amethyst feel this, and how it affects them," the series creator added.
