Atlanta Season 3 Release Date

FX has confirmed the renewal of the third season. As mentioned, the premiere will air on Thursday, March 24, 2022, via FX.

What We Can Expect In Atlanta Season 3

Taking place almost entirely in Europe, Atlanta Season 3 finds Earn, Alfred/Paper Boi, Darius, and Van in the midst of a successful European tour, as the group navigates their new surroundings as outsiders, and struggle to adjust to the newfound success they had aspired to.

In the second season finale, we discovered that Earnest and Vanessa’s daughter Lottie was a gifted child. Thus, the best way for Lottie to succeed was to send her to private school. That is why Earnest decided to use his earnings to pay for her private schooling. But that only papered over the cracks between Earnest and Vanessa. Earnest simply uses Vanessa for sex.

Meanwhile, his absence in Lottie’s life has not left Vanessa feeling that much enamored with him. That is not going to help as Earnest will be on ‘Clark County’s European tour,’ thus miles away from his daughter. Their relationship is dead and buried.

While Earnest is committed to providing for his daughter, the duo is simply on different journeys. It is clear that Earnest has a lot on his plate, which was not helped when Vanessa informed him via text of her intention to move out into her mother’s house with Lottie.

Will Earnest sacrifice his music career on Atlanta Season 3?

The third season should explore how their co-parenting relationship will get on, or even if it will exist. In addition, will Earnest sacrifice his music career for the sake of his daughter?

Just as Earnest is on a different journey, so is Paper Boi. The rapper will be accompanying Earnest and Darius on Clark County’s tour. By traveling to Europe, fans can expect to see a cross-reference between the Atlanta and European rap scene.

In a clip for the trailer of the new season, the European tour does not seem to be going well. The empty seats and quiet streets paint a picture of anything but a thriving rap scene. Although that is one theory, it is also possible that we may see some UK rap stars making cameo appearances. In the pictures here, we can see that the cast is filming in London.

It is not out of the realms of possibilities, therefore, that a UK rapper such as Stormzy could make an appearance. But just as Clark Country is making waves, it does not hide the fact that he has a dark side. The rapper is often conceited, and while he does get on with Earnest, Darius, and Alfred, the very fact of the matter is that he does have a violent streak.

Season 2 demonstrated that when he organized for his sound engineer to get beaten up simply because the software in his studio did not work. Much in the same way, Clark had shown another side to him in the season 2 finale when he framed his manager Luke by placing a gun in his bag while they were in airport security.

But given that it was initially in Earnest’s bag, which was then transported into Clark’s luggage, there could be some tension between Clark and Earnest going forward.

This is especially since Alfred saw Earnest put it in Luke’s bag, which is some dirt that Alfred now has on Earnest. So there you have it folks. What do you think will happen in the new season? Let us know in the comments below!
