Will there be a Lioness season 3?

As a dedicated fan who has binge-watched both seasons of Lioness within a week (and yes, I do have a life!), I can confidently say that Taylor Sheridan’s gripping series is not just another run-of-the-mill show. With its powerhouse cast led by the inimitable Zoe Saldaña, and the masterful storytelling of Sheridan himself, it’s evident that Lioness has a lot more to offer.

Although the future of Yellowstone might be uncertain right now, creator Taylor Sheridan isn’t letting up on his creative pace.

Apart from numerous Yellowstone spin-offs at different stages of planning and creation, his Paramount Plus thriller series, titled Lioness, has recently concluded the broadcast of its second season.

Given that viewers are currently discussing the thrilling ending of season 2, it’s natural to ponder about what lies ahead for the series. Since the cast includes Zoe Saldaña, Nicole Kidman, Morgan Freeman, and Michael Kelly, might we anticipate a third installment, or is this the concluding chapter for Joe and her team?

Read on for everything you need to know about Lioness season 3.

Will there be a Lioness season 3?

According to comments from star Zoe Saldaña, it appears that Lioness might be coming back for a third season, although nothing has been officially confirmed as of now.

In an interview with Vanity Fair, when asked about her decision to star in Lioness, Saldaña joked, “I wish it was because I had extra time in my life [laughs].” However, the reality is more complex. She committed to a multi-season project and has a contractual obligation to fulfill. But Lioness isn’t just about that commitment; it’s also about something else.

Working with Taylor Sheridan on Lioness has been an exciting adventure, as I’ve had the chance to team up with a filmmaker who offers a unique perspective. Similar to a lone cowboy living off the grid, Sheridan’s style is intriguing and captivates many of us. You either resonate with the rhythm of his writing and the recurring themes he explores, or you don’t.

It’s no wonder that Saldaña agreed to stay for “at least three seasons,” since it’s common practice for actors in long-running TV series. This decision definitely hints at plans for another season or more.

We’ll make sure to update this page with new information as soon as we receive any definite updates about the show’s continuation.

When could a potential Lioness season 3 be released?

Since Lioness hasn’t been formally renewed for season 3 as of now, we are still waiting to find out when the next episode might air. But, we can make an educated guess by looking at the release patterns of past seasons.

To date, Lioness has managed a relatively swift release pace compared to numerous high-budget, celebrity-driven streaming series, with the second season premiering only fifteen months following the first. Fingers crossed that the creative team maintains this speed, suggesting that we might witness season 3 as early as the latter part of 2025 or the beginning of 2026.

Who could return for a potential Lioness season 3?

It’s unclear at this point which actors from Lioness will return for a potential third season, but since Zoe Saldana has agreed to star in three seasons, it’s reasonable to anticipate her character, Joe, will be present.

Additionally, it appears probable that actors like Laysla De Oliveira and Genesis Rodriguez might reappear, joined once more by other notable figures including Nicole Kidman, Morgan Freeman, and Michael Kelly.

Below you’ll find the principal actors from Lioness season 2, who are expected to return for season 3:

  • Zoe Saldaña as Joe
