The Great’s first season premiered on May 15, 2020, and because of the Covid-19 pandemic, season 2 didn’t reach our small screens until November 19, 2021. Since lockdowns are no longer, it makes sense that there won’t be as much time between seasons 2 and 3.
The release of The Great season 3 is most likely to occur in late 2022 at the earliest, assuming a reasonable production plan since the pandemic is no longer significantly delaying production. As soon as we learn more, we’ll be sure to update you.
Where can we watch The Great?
Like previous seasons, The Great season 3 is anticipated to debut on the US streaming site Hulu. The Great season 3 will be available for streaming in the UK on Starzplay, which can be accessed through Prime Video.
The Great Season 3 Plot: What will happen?
The previous season started with Catherine and Peter’s early marriage. In this season, we saw all Catherine endured, and the season ends with Catherine going forwards with the planned coup to overthrow her husband.
There has been no official information or leaks about what the possible plot for the third season of the TV show, but it is expected that the show will follow up from the second season. The star actress of the show believed that the next season would start with both Catherine and Peter will be at closely the same age. Also, Empress Catherine ruled till the later part of her life; therefore, there are many storylines that can be pulled from the Empress’s life.
