Outer Banks Season 3 Release Date Status, Cast, Plot and Trailer

Netflix’s original “Outer Banks” 2nd season premiered on 30th July, and fans tore through all the 10 episodes at a supersonic speed. And just 3 days past its release, the audience is already demanding a new season. But now the question arises: are the writers willing to continue with the story? And if so, then when will Outer Banks Season 3 release? All such similar questions regarding the show’s third installment have already been summed up below! So, let’s break it down for you.

Unfortunately, the third season has not been greenlit by Netflix yet, but nothing to fret about because the streaming site usually takes a month to announce the renewal news. Moreover, the showrunner had some interesting views about Outer Banks Season 3. What are they? Continue reading the article for it.

Outer Banks’ first season was released on Netflix in 2020, and the show got more than the projected ratings, which obviously encouraged Jonas Pate to work on its sequel. The show revolves around a group of teens who live on an island where there are extreme wealth divisions and prejudice. However, these friends one day set on an adventure to solve the mystery behind their group leader’s father’s sudden disappearance. And in this expedition, they discover a hidden treasure related to John B’s dad!

The 2nd season continued with this story, but as usual, it ended on a traditional cliffhanger. So, yes, there are chances of a third season. Let’s analyze them! 

Outer Banks Season 3 Release Date

As mentioned earlier, Netflix has not shown the green light to showrunners yet. But the second season’s script was finalized before the first season even aired. So, that means if the writers followed the same pattern, then the Outer Banks Season 3 already has its skeleton prepared!

Now all that we need is the renewal news from Netflix. Which is not that far away. Because Jone Pate confessed in an interview that he wants to run the franchise for many more seasons, well, that is some assuring news!

The third installment will not take more than 1 and a half years for its production phase and if our calculations are correct, then expect the Outer Banks Season 3 to be released in late 2022 or even early 2023!

Cast 

To this day, we don’t have a release date for the third season, let alone the official cast members. But as always, we can always predict the potential cast members.

Outer Banks Season 3 will feature the entire gang of Pogues; Chase Stokes as John B Routledge, Madelyn Cline as Sarah Cameron, Madison Bailey as Kiara “Kie” Carrera, Jonathan Daviss as Pope Heyward, Rudy Pankow as JJ Maybank, Charles Esten as Ward Cameron, and Drew Starkey as Rafe Cameron.

Elizabeth Moss, who joined the cast in the 2nd season, is expected to reprise her role! Other than her, Elizabeth Mitchell and Carlacia Grant will also come back as Limbrey and Cleo. Depending on the story development of Outer Banks Season 3, there might be a few more new additions to the cast! Which we’ll only find out once Netflix announces the renewal news. 

Outer Banks Season 3 Plot

Outer Banks Season 3 will also explore the same treasure mythology, but there will be many emotional plot twists! The fandom will finally get the romantic scenes between JJ and Kiara. Things will not get any easier for Kiara as she might get thrown into a boarding school after she refuses to listen to her parents. This will create more problems for the gang.

In the 2nd season, Carla had formed an unusual relationship with the Pogues. And hopefully, she’ll continue with this pact. John B will most likely have his reunion with his father after hinting in the 2nd installment that he is still alive. This will surely make your eyes teary!

What will happen to Ward and Rafe? They will be getting their justice, but how? We don’t know that yet. However, we have full trust in the writers that they will come up with something exceptional!

Outer Banks Season 3 will give the fans everything they have ever wanted from the show; romantic scenes between potential couples, new enemies, mysteries of the island, and even near-death experiences! If you can’t wait for the 3rd season either, we all are in the same boat.

This is all that we can say about the plot of the upcoming season so far. But as Netflix will disclose the official plot synopsis for Outer Banks Season 3, the storyline will become clearer! 

Outer Banks Season 3 Trailer

Unfortunately, again our answer is no! But if the show gets renewed, then the trailer will be released 3 to 4 months before the show’s official premiere.

So far, there is no word for the third season, and if you can’t wait for it, then there are plenty of other mystery TV shows waiting for you on Netflix! One such show is David Finch’s ‘Mindhunters”! Read all about it here.
