With just one episode left, what folks actually need to know is whether or not or not the drama will get a 3rd season renewal from HBO. At this level, it is trying just like the probabilities of season three truly occurring are slim to none.
“I really like this group of individuals — I’d do something with them, however the actuality is, they’re a few of the busiest actresses working in Hollywood,” HBO president Casey Bloys advised TVLine. “We now have offers with a few of them — Nicole [Kidman] is doing her subsequent present [The Undoing] with us. I simply assume it is not reasonable.”
Regardless of acknowledging the truth that leads Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Meryl Streep, Shailene Woodley, Zoë Kravitz, and Laura Dern are going to be tied up with tasks elsewhere, Bloys made certain to inform the outlet that if the celebrities aligned he’d inexperienced mild season three in a heartbeat: “Look, if all of them got here to me and stated, ‘We labored out all of our schedules!’ — then certain, however I simply do not assume it is reasonable.”
Since many argued that the present did not want a second season to start with — and the season two finale will reportedly wrap up in a approach that “feels satisfying,” based on Bloys — giving BLL one other seven episodes could be overkill. Nonetheless, it appears Bloys and the remainder of the manufacturing crew are eager to maintain their choices open.
On Feb. eight, the present’s creator and govt producer David E. Kelley mentioned its future on the Tv Critics Affiliation press tour in Pasadena, CA.

Kidman — who can also be an govt producer on the present — took a extra gentle method to addressing the present’s destiny when showing on the TCA with Bloys, saying that “there is no plan for it to finish, particularly.”
So, whereas nobody behind the scenes appears to need to definitively say that Massive Little Lies is completed for good, it additionally would take an act of the Hollywood gods to clear the schedules of all these A-list actresses on the identical time with a view to movie a follow-up. Our recommendation? Do not maintain your breath.
