One of Paramount+’s top-performing television shows, Mayor of Kingstown garnered favorable reviews upon its debut. The TV show was announced by Paramount Network in January 2020 with Yellowstone‘s Taylor Sheridan as co-creator alongside Hugh Dillon. The show attracted millions of fans who would love to see more of the cast of the family drama. As such, the Mayor of Kingstown series has been picked up by Paramount+ for a third season. The news was teased by Jeremy Renner who stars in the lead role of Mike McLusky on the show. Renner is set to return to the show after recovering from a life-threatening accident. Below are all the details you need to know about Mayor of Kingstown season 3.
Mayor Of Kingstown Season 3’s Plot
With details about Mayor of Kingstown season 3 still under wraps, nothing is known about the plot. The third season doesn’t have a trailer as of the time of writing this piece and showrunners are still keeping a cap on the angle the season will follow. Nevertheless, the Mayor of Kingstown Season 3 will most likely pick up from where Season 2 stopped. With the spotlight on Mike McLusky (Jeremy Renner), the series follows the influential McLusky family members who call the shots in the fictional town of Kingstown, Michigan. Mike was the right-hand man for his older brother, Mitch. However, he took over as “Mayor” following Mitch’s demise.
In a city where incarceration is the major thriving industry, the McLuskys have been the peacekeepers in Kingstown for decades. The family serves as the middleman between cops, guards, and criminals. The Mayor of Kingstown season 2 ending saw things fall apart in the city with Milo out of prison while Miriam and Robert are hospitalized. From the foregoing, Mayor of Kingstown season 3 will have enough exciting content to explore.
Which Mayor of Kingstown Cast Members Are Returning For Season 3?
While it has been greenlit, Mayor of Kingstown season 3 is still in its early development stage. As such, the official cast list has not been unveiled, making it a bit difficult to know who will return to the show’s third entry. Nevertheless, Renner will likely reprise his leading role as Mayor of Kingstown. The American actor seems to have bounced back on his feet following a snow plow accident that led to over 30 broken bones in his body in early 2023. Another star who is expected to return is Hugh Dillon as Detective Ian. Dillon is also one of the creators of the series.
More cast members are expected to return to the series, including Tobi Bamtefa as Deverin ‘Bunny’ Washington, Taylor Handley as Kyle, Emma Laird as Iris, Derek Webster as Stevie, Hamish Allan-Headley as Robert Sawyer, Nishi Munshi as Tracy McLusky, and Aidan Gillen as Milo Sunter. Meanwhile, Dianne Wiest (Miriam McLusky) has been taken off the cast list for Mayor of Kingstown season 3. Kyle McLusky accidentally shot her character. In all, fans of the Mayor of Kingstown will have to wait for more details to be confirmed.
When Will Mayor of Kingstown Season 3 Be Released?
Mayor of Kingstown debuted to a favorable reception which prompted the show to be renewed for a second run in February 2022. The second season premiered on January 15, 2023, and in September 2023, Paramount+ ordered a third season. However, the Mayor of Kingstown season 3 release date is yet to be announced.
Renner’s tweet on May 26, 2023, with the caption “Might be time to start mental preparation for 3?” reveals that the show is in production and he is still a crucial part of it. Official announcements about the show were delayed due to the life-threatening accident Renner encountered in 2023. The Hollywood strike also contributed to the delay but production is currently underway. Mayor of Kingstown seasons 1 & 2 are available for streaming on Paramount+ for those who wish to catch up before season 3 is released.
