The secret war waged by Joe now threatens his personal life. The third season of Lioness will debut on Paramount+ on August 2, 2026. The platform has released the trailer, focusing on a new mission where clandestine networks, foreign agents, and betrayals collide.
Created by Taylor Sheridan, this espionage thriller follows a unit tasked with infiltrating organizations deemed a threat to the United States. Zoe Saldaña reprises her role as Joe, the head of the Lioness program, alongside Nicole Kidman as Kaitlyn Meade.
In this third season, Joe goes up against shadowy adversaries whose moves seem to follow patterns hard to decipher. Names vanish, routes shift, and the networks at play realign, complicating life for Team Lioness.
Guided by Kaitlyn and Byron Westfield, played by Michael Kelly, Joe must keep steering the operation as the threat permeates every facet of his life. The series thus continues to explore one of its core stakes: the human toll of a profession that demands secrecy, violence, and constant availability, even within the family sphere.
Beyond Zoe Saldana and Nicole Kidman, who also serve as executive producers, the cast features Morgan Freeman, Michael Kelly, Laysla De Oliveira, Dave Annable, Jill Wagner, LaMonica Garrett, James Jordan and Genesis Rodriguez.
Austin Hébert, Jonah Wharton, Thad Luckinbill, Hannah Love Lanier, and Ian Bohen are also part of the cast for this new season.
Produced by Paramount Television Studios and 101 Studios, Lioness counts among its executive producers Taylor Sheridan, Zoe Saldana, Nicole Kidman, David C. Glasser, and Jill Wagner.
