Comedy and crime, while polar opposite genres, go hand-in-glove, especially in anime series. And Netflix’s “Great Pretender” confirms the case well enough. After two appealing seasons of Edamura and crew, the impossible multinational heists have left us reckoning for the next one.
A somewhat underrated Netflix anime series, Great Pretender aired in 2020. While the response to the series hasn’t been immense, it’s still substantial. But what’s the future of the Great Pretender? Are we getting a season 3? Let’s find out…
Has Netflix renewed Great Pretender for season 3?
Regrettably, Netflix is yet to renew the comedy & crime anime series, Great Pretender: season 3. While it is sort of astonishing, all Netflix originals anyway end up in limbo (as observed forever.) So, there’s no news about Great Pretender season three, but the hopes shall remain, okay? We will update this space with more details as soon as it’s available!
Great Pretender season 3 release date
Currently, the release date for this Netflix original is under wraps. The thing is, Netflix never promised a third season, but the series wasn’t scrapped off either. So, chances for Great Pretender season three still dwell and with full force. We can expect its renewal by 2025 or later if everything goes alright. Anime series take longer to be produced and considering Netflix’s history – well, this is a good time to consider a renewal.
What is the storyline of Great Pretender? (Spoiler Alert)
For the people who don’t know, Great Pretender ain’t a manga-based show – in fact, Studio Wit made it an original Netflix project. This is why we cannot anticipate the plot for Great Pretender season 3.
The storyline, however, revolves around Eddie Cassano and Laurent, the new US President and his bodyguard. Strength isn’t their biggest suit, so he’s slating another heist, which will be massive. But hold up; this still ain’t as enormous as learning that Dorothy is alive despite everyone thinking she’s been dead for years. Consequently, her quest to reunite with Laurent and his current squad of misfits will likely be the dominant story beat!
