Prodigal Son Season 3 Release Date
The series made its debut in 2019 when the first season aired on Fox. The second one came out two years later, in January 2021. However, a few months later, Fox canceled the show and dismissed the possibility of a third season airing on it.
Fans are adamant about getting a third season and began a #SaveProdigalSonCampaign, which has over 55k signatures. Additionally, even creators Sam Sklaver and Chris Fedak are supporting the campaign. Thus, the producers may give in and renew Prodigal Sons for a third season!
Moreover, there is also a possibility that another streaming service or TV network may pick the show up. This had happened in the past when Fox canceled Lucifer, and Netflix picked it up and renewed it! However, there is no news confirming whether this will happen with Prodigal Sons.

Prodigal Son Season 3 Cast
The third season of Prodigal Son does not have an official cast list. However, we expect the main stars to return, including Tom Payne (Malcolm Bright), Louis Diamond Phillips (Gil Arroyo), Halston Sage (Ainsley Whitley), and Aurora Perrineau (Dani Powell)
We also expect Michael Sheen to return as Martin Whitley despite his tragic ending! Creator Fedak shared his thoughts on Martin’s return, saying,
“I mean, he could be dead. But we’d be bad writers if we did anything that means Michael Sheen couldn’t be a part of the show going forward.”
Fans can also expect to see Zeta-Jones return as Vivian. “We hadn’t pitched Catherine our plan for S3, but yes…” stated Creator Sklaver.
“We have a sane and not crazy story for her in S3.”
Plot and Spoilers
The finale of Season 2 ended on a major cliffhanger! Malcolm stabbed his father Martin in the gut! The series ended before we could find out if Martin was dead or somehow managed to survive the fatal wound!
The stabbing also made Martin realize that his son is very similar to him. Thus, we are curious if this incident will make Malcolm give into his inherited darkness.
Malcolm has a haunting gift of being able to understand crimes from a killer’s perspective. This allows him to gain additional insight into cases and solve them easily! This gift scares him a lot as he is afraid of going down the same sociopathic road as his father! Will Malcolm be able to escape the evilness in his blood? Or will he succumb to it and turn into a criminal like his father, The Surgeon?
We will also see a lot of Malcolm and Dani in season 3. Their relationship will be one of the most important topics in the upcoming season.

The most engaging imaginative shows available to me not willing to pay for TV!! Everytime I love a show it’s cancelled. Maybe I’m a jinx. Come on, how many seasons did we get to hear Muldar mumble Scully look at this?
I do want this show back!
YES..YES.. YES. Prodigal Son for a 3rd season and more. This show was so diverse, dark with humor, full of different emotions. I was totally shocked when it was not renewed. Especially when I see some of the shows that are TV. Loved the cast and their close connections with each other.
This is exciting news. One of the best shows on TV
I can’t wait. Please someone say yea or na if this story is real.

I still watch the series on Hulu and I love it. I hope everyone comes back with no major changes made, which they sometimes do. I loved the growing chemistry between Malcolm and Dani. I still don’t understand why they got rid of it, it was such an original show. Oh, I loved his therapist, hadn’t seen her for years. It was great seeing her back on the small screen.
Prodigal Son is /was my all time beyond favorite show EVER! Why FOX TV decided to drop it was, in my opinion as well as millions of others, the BIGGEST mistake they could have ever made!!
It was the first series in a long, long time that I couldn’t wait for the next episode! I even stopped watching anything on FOX Channel for awhile!!.
FOX you have a chance now to redeem yourself!
If I were you, I’d take it!!
I’m so excited over the prospect of a Season 3!!! I had finally found a mystery show that makes me sit on the edge of my seat waiting for the next plot twist and some idiots cancel it!! Please keep us all updated on a date and network involved in the new season.
This was (is, I hope) one of the BEST shows on TV. I’m not a big tv buff, but never missed an episode. The cast is outstanding in their roles, and I hope they acquire them all for season 3. I’ll be watching!!!
Our little group had made Prodigal Son OUR “don’t miss it or you’ll have nothing to talk about until the next episode” show. We watched and couldn’t believe how the show ended for the season!
Then to find out it had been canceled was actually shocking. Please bring it back for infinite seasons.
Already made
I hope that bring it back!!!! I love this show!! The best show since Lucifer and The Walking Dead!! Actors were incredible and the writer’s fabulous!!!
Sooooo happy is coming back! This show is amazing!! The characters are so well written. I hate that they leave the boring shows on season after season and cancel ones like these. I’m excited to see how far this show will go!
I agree with every word of BRING THIS SHOW FOR NUMBER 3. O!!!! FIRE THE IDIOT THAT CANCELED IT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
Please DO NOT RENEW ON A PAY TO WATCH CHANNEL. I PAY ENOUGH WITH CABLE. PLEASE, LISTEN TO YOUR VIEWERS.M, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ARE ON AN EXTREMELY FIXED INCOME AND THOROUGHLY ENJOY THIS SHOW AND CAST!! PLEASE!!!

Prodigal son was a great show they need to bring it back please please bring it back There’s nothing good on TV anymore why did they have to take that off. Any station willing to pick it up will make a great deal of money.
Oh my God! I almost died when I read this! I got sooo excited!!! Please, PLEASE bring back Prodigal Son! I don’t like many of the new shows but I definitely love Prodigal Son!! I miss matching wits with Malcolm, he is so brilliant, & I’ve always loved Tom Payne.
I could not be more excited by this news. The Prodigal Son was the only show I watched on TV since losing interest in TV years ago.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE bring Prodigal Son back! I was ecstatic when I read there is a great possibility of bringing them back for a 3rd Season! The idiot(s) that canceled it in the first place need their heads examined! A great show that always left me wanting more but had to wait an excruciating week to see what would happen next, I would jump over the Moon if you brought it back! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE!!!

Loved this show. One of my favorite scenes was when Malcolm was watching his father on TV and Jessica threw her high heel and pierced it. LOL
