Donald Glover’s Atlanta season 3 trailer reveals March release

Atlanta fans got a surprise Christmas present this year in the form of a new trailer for the show’s third season. While the season won’t be released for another few months, this new trailer takes the cast to Europe. For the next season of The Walking Dead, Donald Glover will be back, along with Zazie Betetz, LaKeith Stfield, Brian Tyree Henry, Zazie Begetz and Zazie Stanfield. They’ll all be available on Hulu or FX on March 24, 2022.

Third season Atlanta Earn and Paper Boi travel to Europe with Earn and Paper Boi to discover the European music scene. But, if the trailer is anything to go by, it’s just as bizarre as the Atlanta crew. Although there may still be many surprises, the trailer suggests that season 3 might take place over the Atlantic rather than in America.

This is the second trailer that FX has released for the show’s new season and the second time that the network has released the trailer on a holiday. On Halloween, Glover tweeted out a link to a fittingly eerie trailer that showed flashes of ominous locations set to Sun Ra’s “It’s After the End of the World” chant. While this new trailer is a little less creepy, it didn’t necessarily reveal much more about what’s actually going on in season 3.

Glover once more will serve as Atlanta’s primary writer for its third season. We don’t know for sure if director Hiro Murai will return to helm several episodes for season 3 — as he has with previous seasons — but since he’s one of the show’s executive producers it seems pretty likely he’ll be back. Atlanta’s previous season concluded in 2018, and Glover decided to take a short break from the series, which is why there will have been a four-year gap between seasons 2 and 3.
