FX Announces Premiere Date For ‘Atlanta’ Season 3

Atlanta fans rejoice! After a long delay, the show appears to finally be coming back. Donald Glover’s acclaimed series will return on March 24 on FX. 

Glover released the first teaser for the long-awaited third season in October, during Halloween. The creator and star of the series did it via posting a cryptic link to gilga.com on Twitter with a caption that read, “happy halloween.” The site featured a clock, the user’s location, and a link to the trailer. It only operated during the hours of 8 p.m. and 3 a.m.

As a reminder, the season 2 finale aired three years ago. In August, FX President John Landgraf told The Wrap that season 3 will premiere in the “first half” of 2022. 

The 10-episode third season will be taking place mostly in Europe, where Earn (Glover), Paper Boi (Brian Tyree Henry), Darius (LaKeith Stanfield), and Van (Zazie Beetz) travel on tour. Viewers will follow the group as they navigate their new surroundings as outsiders, and struggle to adjust to the newfound success they had aspired to.
