While Season 3 is obviously still very much in the early development stages, the cast has weighed in on some of the things they might like to see next season.
Sonja Sohn, for example, told TV Insider, “I’d like to see Amanda’s personal relationships explored more. I’d like to see possibly who was Amanda’s ex — Evelyn’s brother — and who might she be interested in in the future. I feel right now everyone has a romantic relationship except Amanda, so I’d like to see some romantic interest develop for her and to see how that impacts her, her tough veneer. I think when anyone has attention paid to them or their feelings if they have love in their lives, they’re different. And I’d like to see what happens to Amanda in a circumstance like that.”
Meanwhile, Jake McLaughlin added that he hopes to see more action set pieces for his character Michael Ormewood, explaining, “I like the action stuff. That’s what I like. I had a good fight scene that just aired last week that I had a lot of fun doing in the choreography. It’s a lot of fun. So those are always— that’s more ticket for me. I like doing the action stuff, just ramping up the intensity of it all. I like keeping it moving.”
What will Will Trent Season 3 be about?
If you haven’t seen the Season 2 finale of Will Trent, “Have You See the Vision?” skip ahead to the next subsection because spoilers ahead!
In the Season 2 finale, Will Trent (Ramón Rodríguez) discovered that it was not Angie (Erika Christensen) who killed Lenny, but she instead covered up for Crystal, who went on to become a serial killer. Her lies meant more people died (even though they were all decidedly terrible child molesters) and she broke the law. As a result, he put Angie under arrest at the tail end of the episode, upending all of the progress the two had made as a couple throughout the season and as best friends throughout their whole lives. So what’s next?
“It’s kind of nice to sort of throw all the pieces in the air and figure out where they’re gonna land,” Heldens said of this devastating development. “We’re excited to kind of figure out what it looks like for her as well as he is forced to contemplate a chapter of his life without Angie,” Thomsen added.
Who has been cast in Will Trent Season 3?
Gina Rodriguez has joined the cast as a series regular, Deadline reports. Her character, Marion Alba, is described as “a charismatic, confident Assistant District Attorney new to Atlanta” who will have an encounter with Will and become “surprised” that they have to work together to investigate gang-related crimes. (Could this be a new romance for Will after the Angie shocker?!)
