P-Valley season 3 release date speculation, cast, and more news

We look into the P-Valley season 3 release date to tell you when Katori Hall's beloved drama series is due to come back to our screens and who will return.

When is the P-Valley season 3 release date? After two great seasons, The Pynk is safe to reopen once more, but now we want to know when exactly we’ll get back into the best club in town.

P-Valley, the vibrant series from Katori Hall, has gradually amassed a fervent following on Starz thanks to its LGBTQ+ storytelling and characters. One of the best drama series on the network, we’ve watched the dancers and staff of Pynk try to keep it together over two seasons. Keeping the place open isn’t easy, but everyone who steps through the venue is touched by it in some way.

We’re no different, and think its wonderful actors and investment-worthy storylines mark it as one of the most underrated and best TV series on the network. But when is the P-Valley season 3 release date? Well, read on to find out.

P-Valley season 3 release date speculation

We don’t think P-Valley will return until mid-late 2024 because season 3 hasn’t started filming.

“I am blessed beyond measure for this opportunity to write the next chapter of P-Valley. With its complex, dynamic, and beautifully flawed characters, this show is a love letter to marginalized communities in the American South who rarely see themselves reflected on screen,” Katori Hall said about the renewal in October 2022.

“It brings me immense joy to know that it has been embraced by folx worldwide. We wouldn’t be getting back up on that pony without our fiercely devoted Pynk Posse. Y’all are our fire.”

We initially expected P-Valley to return in the summer of 2023, but the 2023 Writers Strike and Screen Actor’s Guild strike made that impossible, especially since production was halted back in May 2023. The writers had reportedly finished penning the season, but production in earnest had not started.

Who’s in the P-Valley season 3 cast?

One major change in the P-Valley for season 3 is Elarica Johnson’s departure. Otherwise, the main players in the cast should be intact.

After the events of season 2, Johnson’s character Autumn Night decides to move away from Chucalissa. On X, showrunner Katori Hall said, “Autumn came in on the wind and that is exactly how she left. The strip club is a revolving door, so many women come and go. Autumn was saved by The Pynk and she saved The Pynk. Goodbye, Ms. Autumn Night. #PValley will never be the same.

The expected P-Valley season 3 cast list:

  • Brandee Evans as Mercedes Woodbine
  • Shannon Thornton as Keyshawn Harris/Miss Mississippi
  • Nicco Annan as Uncle Clifford Sayles
  • Skyler Joy as Gidget
  • Parker Sawyers as Andre Watkins
  • Dan J Johnson as Corbin Kyle
  • Tyler Lepley as Diamond
  • J Alphonse Nicholson as LaMarques/Lil Murda
  • Harriett D. Foy as Patrice Woodbine
  • Morocco Omari as Big L
  • Dominic DeVore as Duffy
  • Jordan M. Cox as Derrick Wright
  • Psalms Salazar as Whisper

What will P-Valley season 3 be about?

P-Valley season 3’s plot could focus on Uncle Clifford and Mercedes. Uncle Clifford and Lil Murda have taken their relationship to the next level, going public with their love, while Mercedes will have to grapple with retiring.

P-Valley season 2 floated the idea that everyone moves on from the Pynk in some shape or form. The club was vital to them all at one point or another, but eventually, they had to decide the next step for themselves.

Maybe we’ll see more of that, or perhaps they’ll all double down on efforts to keep the club open. We’ll have to wait and see — we’ll keep you posted on when you should be waiting by the doors.

Is there a trailer for P-Valley season 3?

There isn’t a P-Valley trailer for season 3 yet, but we expect one will drop by mid-2024.

Of course, as mentioned, the various strikes may throw this guess out the window. We’ll just have to be patient. In the meantime, you can refresh your memory of the best scenes with lots of clips available online.

How many episodes of P-Valley season 3 will there be?

The third season of P-Valley will have ten episodes.

This makes sense since season 2 also had ten episodes. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!
