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.’
La Brea
Was ‘La Brea’ Renewed For Season 3?

La Brea fans, you have something to celebrate.
NBC has given an early season 3 renewal to the prehistoric sci-fi series. The network gave the green light right just before season 2 kicked off on Jan. 31, returning from hiatus with two back-to-back episodes. (Read our review!)
Per TVLine, La Brea will get six episodes in the third season with the possibility of scoring more down the line. And if no additional episodes are green-lit, six feels like a solid number that would be enough to provide a solid conclusion for dedicated fans.
The series averaged about 5.4 total weekly viewers, including DVR audiences, in its first season run, however, its midseason return fared rather poorly with 2.1 million and 2 million for both episodes, respectively. All of that could change once playback numbers are factored in proving that the drama was worth saving after all.
The series, which premiered in September 2021—and fills the sci-fi gap left behind by shows like Timeless and Debris—follows a group of people who fall through a mysterious sinkhole in Los Angeles and find themselves transported to 10,000 B.C.
Big Sky
Will There Be a Season 4 of ‘Big Sky’?

Big Sky ended on a high note on Wed, Jan. 18, wrapping up a whirlwind season filled with murder, mystery, and deception.
And naturally, fans are already craving more, especially as each season of the series delves into a new storyline centered in Helena, Montana, and involving Dewell & Hoyt’s Cassie Dewell and Jenny Hoyt.
As of now, ABC has not renewed Big Sky for a fourth season, and it may be months before we get any insight into the matter.
In terms of ratings, the series kept steady with 2.4 million viewers and a 0.2 demo, which means ABC could go either way with their decision.
The fact that they brought in the big guns like Reba McEntire and Jensen Ackles for this season likely means the network believes in the series—and it’s hard to argue with the dedicated fanbase that has stuck around through every twisted and over-the-top plot.
The third season wrapped up many lingering storylines, giving fans closure to the mystery plaguing the season, however, there’s always more to explore when it comes to the dynamics between the core characters. And something tells me, there’s no shortage of criminal activity in Helena.
While Cassie and Cormac finally made things official, fans were likely hoping to see a bit more romance for Jenny and Ackles’ Beau. The show has been toying with their chemistry, sparking a “will they or won’t they” debate, but when it finally came down to solidifying their relationship, they left it open-ended. While it may have been frustrating to fans, it’s likely the show’s hope that it’s enough to convince ABC to green light another season to allow them to explore these relationships further.
When TV Insider asked Ackles if he’d return for a fourth season, he explained, “I don’t know. They haven’t even picked up the show yet for Season 4, so I don’t know if anybody’s coming back for Season 4 yet. That’s above my pay grade.”
However, he added, “But if they do decide to pick up a Season 4 — which I would hope they would, I think the show’s really great, and I think it’s got a lot of story left to tell — I don’t know. They had me for one season. They were probably like, well, let’s just bring him in for one, and we’ll see how it goes, and then we’ll go from there. So they’re waiting to hear what happened with the show, and then they’ll probably talk to [showrunner] Elwood [Reid] and try to figure out what to do with the characters, those that are returning and those that they want to return.”
Seems promising!
Once ABC gives the word—we’ll update this post accordingly. In the meantime, don’t be shy, read our review of the Big Sky Season 3 finale right here.

Why Is Taylor Kinney Leaving ‘Chicago Fire’?

Shocking news Firehouse 51—Taylor Kinney is exiting Chicago Fire.
Deadline reported the news on Friday, Jan. 20, revealing that the actor, who anchors the show as Kelly Severide, will be taking a break from the series.
Kinney has been a staple on the Dick Wolf drama since its inception in 2012 and is a huge reason why the series has retained such a dedicated viewership.
While an official reason was not provided, and a rep for the show did not offer a comment, sources close to production told the outlet that Kinney is taking a “leave of absence” to deal with a personal matter. No word on what the situation is.
The cast and crew were reportedly informed of the leave right before the news broke, with the writer’s room likely having to rewrite scripts to accommodate the change.
It’s unclear whether this will be a permanent leave, nor is there any info about how he will be written out for now.
Kinney has not addressed the news himself as of writing.
This is the latest shocking exit in the #OneChicago world as Jesse Lee Soffer, who plays Jay Halstead on Chicago PD, exited earlier this season, while Brian Tee hung up his coat earlier this season on Chicago Med after portraying Ethan Choi since 2015.
