Minx Season 3: Release Date, Plot, Cast, and More!
Minx is a comedy series created and written by Ellen Rapoport and starring Ophelia Lovibond and Jake Johnson. The comedy series set in the 1970s follows a young feminist from Los Angeles who teams up with a shady adult entertainment publisher to create the first women’s erotic magazine.
The show began on March 17, 2022, when HBO Max debuted the first act of this enthralling drama. Following the success, the show got the green light to return for a second season in May 2022. However, in December 2022, the series was cancelled by HBO Max while its second season was in production. The following month, Starz picked up the series. The second season premiered on Starz on July 21, 2023, and concluded on Sep 8, 2023.
Minx had several twists and turns during its two-season run, from shifting business collaborations to romantic angles. And now, following the end of the second season, fans are clamouring for more. So will there be a third season? If yes, when will it premiere? What will it be about? Well, in order to know, keep on reading. Here’s everything you need to know!
Has Minx been renewed for a third season?
The expectation for the third season’s renewal is high, but as of today, neither the Starz network nor the show’s creators have made any new announcements regarding the series’ renewal.
The reason behind this is that the show only wrapped up its second season, and the majority of viewers haven’t even watched all 8 episodes yet, so it’s way too soon to even expect a renewal or a premiere date. Therefore, the current state of Minx Season 3 is irrelevant at this time.
The creator of the series, Ellen Rapoport, is confident and optimistic about the third season. She told Entertainment Weekly that she “absolutely” wanted a third season. “We have a lot of story to tell. I definitely want Season 3. Does anyone say no?”
When will Minx Season 3 premiere?
The first season aired from March to April 2022 followed by the second season from July to Sep 2023. There was a gap of around 15 months between the first and second seasons despite network changes.
So, fans can anticipate the series to return for a third season in late 2024. This is because of the continued strikes by members of the Writers Guild of America and SAG AFTRA. Due to the strikes, fans should even expect a delay until 2025.
What will Minx Season 3 be about?
After the events of Season 1, Minx Season 2 begins a year later, with Joyce and Doug still on bad terms and the magazine having terminated its links to Bottom Dollar. The two reconnect as the season goes on, much to the profit of their respective empires. Rolling Stone pays Bottom Dollar a visit in order to examine the publisher’s role in the sexual revolution.
The inauguration of the male dance revue Club Minx and its foreign rights sales were made possible by the abundance of subscriptions Minx is raking in. Therefore, the show will probably continue to investigate the characters’ constantly shifting relationship dynamics if it gets a third season.
Jake Johnson, who plays publisher Doug Renetti, revealed that the team behind the show does listen to viewers’ opinions. “Creator Ellen, writer Ben Karlin, and the whole team listened to the audience. They’d pick up on the little things people would say,” Johnson explained to The A.V. Club.
