Mayor of Kingstown is now officially returning – here’s everything we know about the third season, from release details and trailer updates to cast, plot, and more.

Yellowstone showrunner Taylor Sheridan created Mayor of Kingstown with Hugh Dillon, and the show debuted on Paramount+ in November of 2021.

Here’s the official synopsis: Mayor of Kingstown follows the McLusky family, power brokers in Kingstown, Mich., where the business of incarceration is the only thriving industry. Tackling themes of systemic racism, corruption and inequality, the series provides a stark look at their attempt to bring order and justice to a town that has neither.

Season 2 kicked off in January, and concluded in March. While here’s what we know about a potential third season.

Is there a Mayor of Kingstown Season 3 release date?

Mayor of Kingstown has been renewed for a third season, though there’s no word yet regarding when it will air.

The show won’t shoot anytime soon, due to Jeremy Renner’s snow-plow accident, and the ongoing writer and actor strikes. But according to The Hollywood Reporter, “the series had been quietly picked up months ago but the streamer delayed a formal announcement for the crime drama’s return while Renner recovered from his injuries.”

In March, Renner posted a video of himself walking on an “anti-gravity treadmill”, captioned: “I now have to find OTHER things to occupy my time so my body can recover from my will.”

Mayor of Kingstown Season 3 cast: Who’d be in it?

Following on from that green-light, we expect the following stars to return to the cast:

  • Jeremy Renner as Mike McLusky
  • Kyle Chandler as Mitch McLusky
  • Dianne Wiest as Mariam McLusky
  • Taylor Handley as Kyle McLusky

Dillon also plays Ian Ferguson, as well as serving as co-showrunner, and we’d expect him to reprise his role. “Taylor was my acting coach years ago, and I learned from him every single thing,” he said.

“He coached me on a show called Flashpoint. He is driven. He’s a master. If you’re passionate about it, which I am, it’s effortless in a sense. It’s this show I dreamed of making.”

We’ll update this space upon any announcements or news regarding the show’s cast.

Mayor of Kingstown Season 3 plot: What would it be about?

There are no official plot details for Mayor of Kingstown Season 3 right now, but the showrunners have a “big future” planned out for the show.

Talking to Comic Book, Dillon said: “Taylor and I, like I said, it took 10 years to build. So we were two guys who were like, ‘Then what happens?’ And so as he’s helping me audition and he’s doing his thing, we are constantly building this. So by the time it hit, we had 10 years to construct it. So yeah, we’ve got a big future planned for Mayor.”

Is there a Mayor of Kingstown Season 3 trailer?

No, there’s no trailer for Mayor of Kingstown Season 3, on account of there not being any footage of the next season whatsoever. We’ll update this space upon any announcements, but you can check out the trailer for the second season below:
