The creepy horror series from MGM Plus has garnered devotees and even some famous fans. After the bewildering season 2 finale, When is the From season 3 release date?
With more From coming, we’ve taken a look at all the available information on one of MGM Plus’ best TV series to give you insight into its cast, plot, and any teases out there. Stephen King won’t stop talking about it, so people are obviously excited.
When is the From season 3 release date?
From season 3 should be released by early 2025.
Let’s do the good news first: MGM Plus is working on a new season, which was announced by Michael Wright, head of MGM Plus, on June 29, 2023.
“The first two seasons of From captivated critics and terrified and engaged fans, who have formed a thriving online community that is trying to put the pieces together week by week as the secrets of the nightmarish town — and possibly beyond — are slowly revealed,” Wright said in a statement.
“We can’t wait for fans to see the surprises ahead in season 3, which promises more scares and mysteries, but also more answers.”
Unfortunately, production on season 3 was delayed as a result of the 2023 Writers Strike and Actors Strike. The show may be pushed back into the winter of 2024 or maybe even 2025.
Who’s in the From season 3 cast?
Harold Perrineau as Boyd Stevens will be back to lead From, and we expect all the surviving main characters will return for season 3. There’s no official cast list yet.
Season 2 added several new cast members to the roster, and we imagine season 3 will feature some, too. Perrineau is the series’ big name (Remember him from early LOST?), and he is joined by a talented batch of actors doing their best to sell the tension of the scary, supernatural story.
Jamie McGuire as the Smiley Creature won’t be back because the creature was killed (he lives on in our nightmares, however).
Expected From season 3 cast list:
- Harold Perrineau as Boyd Stevens
- Catalina Sandino Moreno as Tabitha Matthews
- Eion Bailey as Jim Matthews
- David Alpay as Jade Herrera
- Elizabeth Saunders as Donna Raines
- Scott McCord as Victor
- Ricky He as Kenny Liu
- Chloe Van Landschoot as Kristi Miller
- Pegah Ghafoori as Fatima Hassan
- Corteon Moore as Ellis Stevens
- Hannah Cheramy as Julie Matthews
- Simon Webster as Ethan Matthews
- Avery Konrad as Sara Myers
- Elizabeth Moy as Tian-Chen Liu
- Deborah Grover as Tillie
- Angela Moore as Bakta
- Kaelen Ohm as Marielle
- A.J. Simmons as Randall
- Nathan D. Simmons as Elgin
What will From season 3 be about?
Director Jack Bender has teased that season 3 will be “worse” for From’s characters and will pick up after the climactic season 2 finale.
“Every time you feel you can get out that way, bang, you hit the wall of the mirror here, here, here, here, here, and it accumulates and builds to a great crescendo at the end of season two. It builds and builds to a really powerful, crazy, climactic end of the season, which is where we’re going to pick up season three. It does get worse; It’s like quicksand.” he told TellTale TV.
From season 2, episode 10 ended with Tabitha waking up in a hospital. She looks out a window at unfamiliar territory and sees the reflection of a blonde girl in the mirror. Did she truly escape ‘Fromville’? It looks like it, but we have questions.
With the rest of the townsfolk left behind, Bender indicates stakes will rise. Also, we hope season 3 explains the cicadas, which have been an ever-present puzzling motif. One thing we can expect from the new season is for it to take some inspiration from the one and only master of horror, Stephen King.
“You know, when I work with Stephen King, I love the fact when he’s writing about the monsters inside of us, as well as the monsters outside of us,” Bender explained. “So, we relate in a certain way. I think that’s very true of our show. I think it’ll be scarier to satisfy all that stuff, and it will also be more complicated and horrific for the characters”.
We think Bender will probably pull from some of the slightly more obscure King stories like Needful Things, The Langoliers, and maybe even the far more famous Salem’s Lot. All these books deal with similar ideas of small towns taken over by supernatural forces or, in the case of Langoliers, being trapped out of time.
Is there a From season 3 trailer?
We can probably expect From season 3’s trailer in late 2024.
If the new season does release around spring 2025, we can expect a trailer a few months before.
The good news is there’s fantastic behind-the-scenes content to browse through on From’s official website, and you can watch those videos here. You can also watch some fan theories, like the one below.
Where can I watch From season 3?
From season 3 would stream on MGM Plus in the US, just like the previous two seasons. If you’re not in the US, you’ll need a VPN.
We’ve got a guide to VPNs for streaming for those of you who can’t access some of the best streaming services due to geo-blocking. Don’t let pesky internet digital borders make you miss out. If you’re in the US, you can sign up for MGM Plus on their website.
If you need something dark to watch in the meantime, we recommend hanging out with teenaged cannibals ahead of Yellowjackets season 3.
How many episodes are in From season 3?
From season 3 will have ten episodes. This is the same amount as the previous two seasons.
Some series adapt to their story and change episode count every season while others stick to a rigid number. From seems to be the latter, with seasons 1 and 2 both having 10 episodes. There’s no indication season 3 will end the series, either, so we don’t expect an abnormally large or small amount.
If anything else comes out, we’ll add it to the current information here, so check back with us for updates if you’d like.
