What To Know Before Leverage: Redemption Season 3
Leverage: Redemption Season 3 Began Filming In January 2024
Leverage: Redemption will feature a significant change behind the scenes. John Rogers, the co-creator of the original Leverage, will serve as showrunner and executive producer for the third installment. He’d previously been a consulting producer on the revival. The story is also poised to pick up where the previous installment left off, with Sophie starting to let go of her guilt. Even though the Leverage: Redemption season 2 finale has a note of hope, there are unanswered questions.
Arthur (Damian O’Hare) and Ramsey (Ralph Brown) are under arrest, though they’re crafty criminals who could easily escape. Those stories could pick up steam if the show is renewed. That means the team’s goal of taking down Arthur is ultimately unsuccessful, but it sets the table for an eventful season 3.
Why Timothy Hutton Isn’t In The Leverage Reboot, Redemption
Leverage is returning for a revival series with the original team of con artists, but Timothy Hutton will not be returning as mastermind Nate Ford.
Leverage: Redemption‘s move to Prime Video is also significant for the revival. The streamer has found a lot of success with action thrillers, such as Reacher, Jack Ryan, and the Bosch sequel series. The upcoming addition fits nicely given its premise and caper drama style, and it could find a bigger audience considering Prime Video’s wide reach.
Leverage: Redemption
and the original series are both available to stream on Amazon Freevee.
