Is Season 3 of Big Little Lies Happening? Reese Witherspoon and Laura Dern Want Ice Cube and J.Lo to Appear
Fans have been aching to catch up with the Monterrey five, but is a season 3 of Big Little Lies in the works?
While the stars of the HBO series have previously said that a third season is unlikely, there’s been some rumblings lately that reveal it isn’t entirely out of the question. Not to mention, there’s interest from the cast!
Nicole Kidman told Elle in 2019 that they’d “love to [do another season] because we love being together, and it’s lovely spending time with your friends, and with such good material.”
However, for there to be another season, it has to make sense and the storyline needs to be strong. It’s also incredibly difficult to get all the Oscar-winning actresses together in one room as they’re some of the busiest women in Hollywood. Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Laura Dern, Zoe Kravitz, and Shailene Woodley would love to reprise their roles, but they’ve also got a lot going on individually in their careers.
Witherspoon is starring in Hulu’s Little Fires Everywhere and Apple’s The Morning Show, Kravitz has her Hulu show Fidelity and will play Catwoman, and Dern recently finished up Marriage Story and Little Women. Woodley also has several projects in pre-production.
And still, Dern and Witherspoon gave fans hope during an Instagram Live amid the coronavirus quarantine.
Witherspoon revealed she’d love to bring Jennifer Lopez to Monterrey stating, “I’m always hoping for J.Lo to show up, just ’cause I really enjoy some J.Lo,” she said of the Hustlers actress.
She also clarified that again, they want to do a third season. “we’re just kind of waiting… We’re trying guys! We’re trying to come up with the right story,” she revealed.
Dern added: “I really do fantasize that we’ll do it again cause I miss—don’t you miss those characters?,” before revealing that she’d love Ice Cube to make a cameo. Maybe he’d join the sheriff’s department?
And while there is a lot of interest in continuing the narrative of the compelling series, it was never intended to stretch for multiple seasons since it was created as a limited series.
Many fans and even those involved with the series worry that pushing more seasons will only dilute and weaken the show’s reputation, and thus, it’s why the ladies refuse to agree on anything until the story is just right.
While season 2 offered some closure as the ladies, spearheaded by Bonnie (Kravitz) all decided to come clean, it was also open-ended as there would be much to explore with how confessing affected their lives.
Would they go to jail? Would they be shunned by society? What happens with Renata’s (Derns) marriage?
The foundation is there, but where they go from there is the real question. In order to move forward, writer David E. Kelly must present a script that makes sense to the biggest names in Hollywood.
Is season 3 happening? It may not be a ‘yes’ right now, but it’s also not a ‘no.’
Mandatory meeting in the fashion closet.
The Bold Type previously announced that its fifth season will be its last, and now, we have a premiere date!
Freeform announced the series will return on Wednesday, May 26!
Chill the champagne. Your May 26th is officially booked.

The Final Season of #TheBoldType premieres Wednesday, May 26th on @FreeformTV, next day on @hulu pic.twitter.com/5unZUQHLo5— The Bold Type (@TheBoldTypeTV) April 8, 2021
Per the synopsis, Kat, Jane, and Sutton are “on the brink of defining who they really are and how best to leave their mark on the world.”
Season 4 ended prematurely on July 16, 2020, due to the coronavirus pandemic.
As a refresher, the season ended with Sutton and Richard splitting, Kat hooking up with Eva despite the two sharing significantly different political views and then calling things off, and Jane challenging Jacqueline on a controversial story that involved her husband while also possibly crushing on one of her writers.
The upcoming final season will be miniature in size as it will only feature six episodes.
Younger is ready to turn the final page!
Ahead of the seventh and final season, Paramount+ released a lengthy two-minute trailer that gives fans a glimpse of how it all ends.
The clip opens with a flashback to Charles (Peter Hermann) asking Liza (Sutton Foster) to marry him during the season 6 finale.
But, of course, it’s unclear if Liza accepted the proposal as the next scene finds her ex, Josh (Nico Tortorella), and her friend, Lauren (Molly Kate Bernard), wondering if she said yes.
News of the possible engagement spreads fast as Liza’s bestie, Kelsey (Hilary Duff), informs her that she “just heard the news,” while her other bestie, Maggie (Debi Mazar), laments that she’s “impressed” with Charles.
However, Liza doesn’t seem to think the proposal was all that romantic, which leads me to believe that maybe the couple isn’t headed down the aisle anytime soon.
Especially because the rest of the trailer seems to show trouble in paradise!
And this time, it may not be Josh’s fault… though, one scene does show him asking Liza: “if I would have said something sooner, would it have made a difference?”
Liza’s always struggled to choose between Charles and Josh, however, there may be a new man taking up residence in Liza’s life: surf legend Kai Manning, who is shopping a book at Empirical/Millennial.
And while there’s a scene of Liza and Charles kissing underneath the fireworks, there’s also some tension as he informs her that he “had to bend a lot” to be with her.
Tension also builds as it looks like Quinn is moving in on Liza’s man and Charles may be entertaining the idea!
New relationships seem to be on the horizon as Josh is spotted with a new woman by his side as his baby momma, Claire, returns.
Maggie is also smitten with a woman named Camila.
And elsewhere, Kelsey contemplates her future asking Lauren if she should “go back to Millennial,” before informing Quinn of her decision, which the billionaire calls “running home to daddy.”
It’s the beginning of the end for Liza, Kelsey, and Empirical!
Paramount Plus announced that the seventh and final season of Younger will premiere on Thursday, April 15!
The first four episodes will be available for streaming on that day.
The final eight episodes will be released on a weekly basis every Thursday.
Those who don’t have access to Paramount Plus will be able to see the full season later in the year on TV Land.
It was also announced that Miriam Shor (the impeccable Diana Trout) and Charles Michael Davis (Zane Anders) will no longer be series regulars.
Per TV Line, the duo will be back in a recurring capacity.
“Due to scheduling and Covid related matters, Miriam Shor and Charles Michael Davis were unable to be season seven cast regulars,” series creator Darren Star said in a statement to the news outlet.
“However, they will always be a much loved and integral part of the Younger family and have added so much heart and soul to the series.”
Production for the final season was delayed significantly due to the coronavirus pandemic.
