The Morning Show Season 3 Guide to Release Date, Cast News, Spoilers

The Morning Show is officially coming back for a third season.

Apple TV+ announced the renewal of its flagship drama two months after the Season 2 finale ended on a major cliffhanger. The workplace drama stars Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon as news anchors navigating workplace tensions and the aftermath of sexual misconduct allegations against a former colleague (Steve Carell). Season 2 of the series also tackled the COVID-19 pandemic, ending in March 2020 just before the first shutdowns in New York City.

In addition to the Season 3 announcement—the show's first renewal since it was picked up for two seasons at the start—the streamer confirmed that Charlotte Stoudt will serve as showrunner for the new episodes. Stoudt, who has previously written for Fosse/Verdon and Homeland, is taking over for Kerry Ehrin, who developed the show and will serve as a consultant on Season 3.

"It has been thrilling to watch The Morning Show go from strength to strength over the past two seasons, exploring topical storylines that have resonated with audiences around the world while also being incredibly addictive and entertaining," Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+, said in a statement.

"We're excited to see where Charlotte takes these extraordinary characters in season three and to watch the magic that Jennifer, Reese and our awe-inspiring cast continue to bring to the captivating world of morning television," he added.

Ahead is everything we know so far about The Morning Show's third season.

What will Season 3 be about?

Per an official press release for season 3, the upcoming season will show "the future of the network being thrown into question " while "loyalties are pushed to the brink when a tech titan takes an interest in UBA" resulting in unexpected alliances and everyone being forced to confront their core values "in and out of the newsroom".

Showrunner Kerry Ehrin also said in a November Hollywood Reporter interview that Season 3 probably won't start where the finale left off, in the early days of the pandemic. Instead, she said the possibilities for the new season are endless. "You could [jump into the future]. You could go backwards. It's such an interesting little universe. You really can put it anywhere in time, and I think the challenge of the show is coming up with that big subject," Ehrin said.
