The second season of Taylor Sheridan’s star-studded Paramount+ favorite concluded all the way back in December 2024. Thankfully, Season 3 is on the way, but there won’t be any new episodes of _Lioness_ this month.\n\nThe official synopsis for the upcoming season teases that “hidden networks, foreign operatives, and personal betrayals collide,” as Joe (Saldaña) “walks the line between duty and home as unseen forces circle her world.” Also starring Nicole Kidman, Michael Kelly, Morgan Freeman, Laysla De Oliveira, Dave Annable, Jill Wagner, LaMonica Garrett, James Jordan, and Genesis Rodriguez, the first two seasons of _Lioness_ are [currently streaming on Paramount+](https://r.deciderlink.com/?btn_ref=org-4cd6b7249030f707&btn_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fvideo%2Foffers%3FbenefitId%3Dcbsaacf%26tag%3Ddecider08-20%26asc_refurl%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fdecider.com%2F2026%2F07%2F18%2Flioness-season-3-release-date-taylor-sheridan-lioness-return-new-episodes%2F%26asc_source%3Dweb).\n\nWhen exactly does Lioness Season 3 premiere? Here’s everything you need to know.\n\n## Is _Lioness_ Airing a New Episode This Week?\n\nNope. But don’t worry! The series will soon be back for a third season of espionage.\n\n## When Is The _Lioness_ Season 3 Release Date?\n\nThe third season of _Lioness_ officially debuts Sunday, August 2 at 3:01 a.m. ET [on Paramount+](https://www.paramountplus.com/shows/lioness/).\n\n## _Lioness_ Season 3 Synopsis:\n\n**[Per Paramount+:](https://www.paramountpressexpress.com/paramount-plus/shows/lioness/releases/?view=112953-lioness-season-three-mission-accepted-the-espionage-thriller-returns-august-2-on-paramount)**“In Season Three, from creator and writer Taylor Sheridan, hidden networks, foreign operatives, and personal betrayals collide. Joe (Zoe Saldaña) walks the line between duty and home as unseen forces circle her world. Patterns appear where they shouldn’t, names vanish, and paths rearrange. Guided by Kaitlyn (Nicole Kidman) and Westfield (Michael Kelly), Joe confronts enemies operating in the shadows, leaving her to reckon with a war that now reaches into every part of her life.”\n\n## Where To Watch _Lioness_ Season 3:\n\nThe first two seasons are streaming exclusively on Paramount+.\n\n[Paramount+](https://r.deciderlink.com/?btn_ref=org-4cd6b7249030f707&btn_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fgp%2Fvideo%2Foffers%2Fref%3Datv_3p_amz_c_SoOvsp_1_1%3FbenefitId%3Dcbsaacf%26tag%3Ddecider08-20%26asc_refurl%3Dhttps%3A%2F%2Fdecider.com%2F2026%2F07%2F18%2Flioness-season-3-release-date-taylor-sheridan-lioness-return-new-episodes%2F%26asc_source%3Dweb) offers two subscription plans, Essential and Premium.
