Banshee Season 3 release date has been confirmed. To the fans of the unnammed ex-con trying to save the town full of secrets, the Cinemax action-drama series will open your year with a bang as it is scheduled to return on January 9. TV Line got an exclusive scoop for the third season of the show that stars Anthony Starr as ex-con, master thief Lucas Hood and Ivana Milicevic as Anastasia/Carrie Hopewell, the criminal accomplice and former lover of Hood.
"Lucas Hood will face an assault on multiple fronts when Banshee returns in early 2015, a fact underscored in the Cinemax drama's pulpy Season 3 poster," TV Line wrote.
The website's scoop on Banshee Season 3 release date even came with bonus as it is accompanied with an official key art that "features the image of a nameless, faceless deputy lying (presumably) dead after being pierced by three arrows. The tagline: "Old habits die hard."
In case you need more than just Banshee Season 3 release date and need to catch up on what to expect once the show returns next year, here are some of the things that have been confirmed.
With Rabbit (Ben Cross) finally dead, Lucas Hood will now face bigger antagonists, figuratively and literally. According to earlier Banshee season 3 spoilers, the giant imposing leader of the Kinaho tribe, Chayton Littleton, who Geno Segers portrays, will assume a more active role in putting down Hood. Segers' promotion into a series regular was announced shortly after the second season finale. Chayton and Hood had some run-ins over the past season so expect more fights between them.
Another villain that will become Hood's main nemesis is Kai Proctor (played by Ulrich Thomsen) who took a backseat in the second season as it dwell mostly on Hood and Anastasia's quest to kill and finally erase Rabbit in their lives.
"[Proctor and Chayton] step in to kick it up a few notches," exec producer Jonathan Tropper said during the Comic-Con last summer. "Proctor's been a threat since Season 1. And we're bringing [Chayton] back in Season 3 in a big way."
Aside from Starr, Milicevic, Thomsen, and Segers, also returning for Banshee Season 3 are Hoon Lee, Trieste Kelly Dunn, Lili Simmons, Frankie Faison, and Matt Servito. New additions are Langley Kirkwod, Meaghan Rath, Chaske Spencer and Tom Pelphrey.
