The Hollywood Reporter says HBO reached an agreement with creator/executive David Milch to do the movies instead of another full season.
The Reporter said the issue of whether HBO would order a fourth season was forced in recent weeks by the fact that the cast members' contractual options for a fourth season are due to expire soon.
The third season of "Deadwood" is set to premiere Sunday.
