Following the fourth-wall breaking, real-life diarist and Yorkshire landowner Anne Lister, Gentleman Jack recently returned with a second acclaimed season. The show stars Suranne Jones and Sophie Rundle, playing Anne Lister and wealthy heiress Ann Walker, respectively. At the end of the first season, the couple secretly exchanged vows, committing themselves to each other and combining their wealth and property.
Fans loved the plot and appreciated the performance of the cast. Further, it received positive reviews from the critics as well. However, the major question still remains the same: Will the series come back with a season 3? In this post, we’ve included all the details that you need to know about Gentleman Jack season 3.
Gentleman Jack season 3: Will it be renewed or cancelled?
Gentleman Jack was renewed by BBC on 23rd May 2019 for a second season. However, so far, there have been no updates about season 3. But is there a chance of it getting a renewal? Oh, yes. There is certainly enough of Anne’s life and diaries still to adapt. So, fingers crossed! Also, we’ll keep this page updated with any news.
If the decision was up to the show’s creator Sally Wainwright, it seems we would definitely be seeing a third season. She previously confirmed that she would “like to go all the way to the end of [Anne’s] life.”
*Spoiler Alert*
She explained that because of real-life events that saw Anne Lister die in 1840 at the age of 49, tackling that ending would be no mean feat. Wainwright said: “It’s quite a tricky thing to do, and I’m worried people might get cross if I kill her off… that’s a conversation I will have to have further down the line!”
Gentleman Jack Season 3 release date?
The series has not been formally verified by the network. Hence, the prospective premiere date has yet to be acknowledged. But if we have to predict the potential release date, it might happen sometime around early to mid-2023. Just like the first and second seasons, as the very first episodes aired on April 22, 2019, and April 10, 2022, respectively, we can expect the same for season 3.
Who all are going to be featured in Gentleman Jack season 3?
We expect all the cast members to return for the third installment. Suranne Jones (Vigil) and Sophie Rundle (Peaky Blinders) are likely to return to lead the cast as Anne Lister and Ann Walker respectively. Lydia Leonard (Ten Percent) may also be back as Anne’s ex-lover Mariana Lawton.
Meanwhile, other key characters including Marian Lister (Gemma Whelan), Lady Vere Hobart (Jodhi May), Elizabeth Sutherland (Katherine Kelly) and Captain George Sutherland (Derek Riddell) could all also return.
In season 2, The Larkins’ Joanna Scanlan also joined the cast as Isabella “Tib” Norcliffe, Anne’s “outrageous former lover”. So, there’s a good chance we would see her back too if the series returns.
