Atlanta season 3 release date, cast, synopsis, trailer, and more
By Diana Nosa
After all the production delays and pushbacks due to the global pandemic, FX‘s hit series Atlanta may finally be on its way to our screens this year with its third season.
The third season was originally set to air earlier this year with the fourth season following soon after. However, with COVID-19 filming restrictions, both seasons of the comedy series have been delayed further than expected.
Though the upcoming seasons may not have release dates just yet, we can still spill all the deets we know about Atlanta season 3 so far.
Atlanta season 3 release date
As mentioned, there is not a confirmed release date for Atlanta season 3 just yet. There is a glimmer of hope though, as it’s been reported that the show is set to start filming in Europe this April. Once we get an announcement about when it’ll premiere, we’ll update this article ASAP!
Atlanta season 3 cast
Though there is no official word on the season 3 cast as of yet, we definitely know that we should be seeing more of Earnest ‘Earn’ Marks (Donald Glover), Darius Epps (Lakeith Stanfield), Alfred ‘Al’ Miles aka Paper Boi (Brian Tyree Henry), and Vanessa ‘Van’ Keefer (Zazie Beetz). Perhaps, we’ll see even more recurring characters.
Fans of the show have been wondering whether or not comedian Katt Williams, who plays the show’s hilarious Uncle Willy, will return to reprise his role, especially after Williams won an Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series. Unfortunately for fans, there seems to be no news in regards to if we’ll see Uncle Willy again or not, but there’s still time for that to change.
Atlanta season 3 synopsis
As we know, the second season of the series ended on a cliffhanger; Earn possessing an item that could land him and his crew in a lot of trouble and potentially jeopardize Paper Boi’s very first rap tour.
According to Esquire, Atlanta season 3 might pick up from where it last left us, leaving us with two possibilities: Earn not getting caught and everything is fine, or Earn definitely getting caught and everything is ruined.
Atlanta season 3 trailer
So is the trailer out for Atlanta season 3? Sorry, not yet.
Atlanta has been rather secretive about the events that the third season will feature, and with the show being delayed, we can expect the trailer to be another secret that the FX show will keep for now.
But the good news is, you can watch the first two seasons of Atlanta on Hulu.
Watch this critically acclaimed series to learn all about Alligator Man, Teddy Perkins, the invisible car, how Nigerians never lose, and to watch how a struggling Earn fights for his cousin’s big break.
