What Season 3 Is Bringing
Season 2 ended on a razor’s edge, and Season 3 picks up that momentum immediately. Expect:
A Shift in Power
Joe has been pushed to her breaking point. This season questions whether she’ll finally step aside and allow Cruz to take command.
A Complicated Romance
The growing bond between Cruz and Josephina remains electric and dangerous. Their loyalties, their emotions, and their lives collide this season.
Joe’s Marriage on the Brink
After years of emotional distance and countless covert missions, her home life may finally fracture beyond repair.
Escalating Global Conflict
Season 3 digs even deeper into the political firestorm teased last season, with new threats emerging from the fallout between the U.S. and China.
A Fully Loaded Cast
Expect powerhouse performances from:
-
Zoe Saldaña
-
Nicole Kidman
-
Morgan Freeman
And of course, Taylor Sheridan is back to intensify every twist and turn.

Why Season 3 Was Inevitable
Despite Paramount+ keeping quiet for months, the math always pointed toward renewal. Season 2 shattered viewership records with 3 million households tuning in during its first week. Zoe Saldaña has publicly expressed her commitment to at least three seasons, and the fan demand has been relentless.
Season 3 isn’t just happening — it’s coming in hot.
Are You Ready for More Lioness?
As the new season approaches, fans are gearing up for another round of espionage, betrayal, and pulse-pounding missions. Should the series keep pushing forward beyond Season 3, or should it end on a high?
