The series based on the novels by Leigh Bardugo still has many questions to answer after the end of its season 2.
Although still without official confirmation, ‘Shadow and Bone’ season 3 could be the last. The Netflix series is an ambitious combination of several of Leigh Bardugo’s novels within the so-called Grishaverse, and showrunner Eric Heisserer’s plans include, he said, three seasons. Will Netflix let us see the end? Or will you be so confident that the story could continue beyond a third season? Of course, after the amazing cliffhanger from the ‘Shadow and Bone’ season 2 finale, we look forward to meeting the characters at least one more time.
The fantasy series has once again raised the stakes, as we read in the review of season 2 of ‘Shadow and Bone’ in PHOTOGRAMS, and in its latest episode it has completely changed the map of history as we knew it. What awaits the future of Ravka? And the new paths that the main protagonists of history have taken? Who would be joining in new episodes and when will ‘Shadow and Bone’ season 3 premiere on Netflix? We answer everything we know so far for those who have been left hungry for more.
‘Shadow and bone’, season 3: release date
If a continuation is confirmed, and now that we don’t have pandemics involved, the release date of season 3 of ‘Shadow and Bone’ could be at the end of 2024. It is just an estimate taking into account the shooting and post-production times, but we will have to be aware of possible delays or, in the worst case, the cancellation of the series by Netflix. At the moment, it is not off the table.

‘Shadow and bone’, season 3: who will return to the cast?
Let’s hope that in season 3 of ‘Shadow and Bone’ we will meet again with the general cast of the series, which has accompanied us so far. In the center are:
Also, let’s hope that the new characters that have conquered us in the second season will repeat: Jack Wolfe like Wylan Hendriks patrick gibson as King Nikolai Lantsov, and Anna Leong Brophy and lewis tan like the brothers Tamar and Tolya.
Unfortunately, we don’t think we’ll ever see Ben Barnes as General Kirigan (AKA Aleksander AKA The Dark One), after his fate is revealed in the second season finale. Even if you never say never!

‘Shadow and bone’, season 3: how will the story continue?
How will the story continue in season 3 of ‘Shadow and Bone’? That’s what we would like to know! Things are in a surprising situation at the end of Season 2, and we can’t even turn to Leigh Bardugo’s books for answers. because the differences between the ‘Shadow and Bone’ series and the books on which it is based are already too great. In fact, this season has combined different plots from the books in the literary saga more than ever, so the result is a new story that we can’t quite predict.
Let’s see where we are. On the one hand, Mal resurrects after dying to offer his Firebird powers to Alina, who finally manages to destroy The Shadow and kill The Dark One. But that resurrection has caused both of them to lose the magical connection they shared and now they don’t know very well what is real and what is not their relationship. That’s why, Mal becomes the new pirate Sturmhond and goes on adventures with the brothers Tamar and Tolya, and also Inej. Also, the ninja of Ketterdam has given Kaz something to think about: unless she removes her trauma-laden armor, they won’t be able to be together, no matter how much he tells her he loves her… in the manner of she. Thus, this group will be one of the narrative lines of the next season.
On the other hand, we return to Ketterdam, where the group of Ravens has lost one of its main members, but there are still Jesper and Wylan (we’ll have to see where their relationship goes), Nina (who still hasn’t been able to rescue Matthias from the prison, now controlled by Pekka Rollins) and the leader Kaz, who at the end of the season discovers us The next challenge now that there is no Shadow to destroy is a drug known as jurda parem and that it is capable of amplifying the powers of the Grisha in a very dangerous way. The chemist who created it fled so that the drug would not fall into the wrong hands, but the Fjerdans captured him and now it seems that this will be the first dirty weapon for the coming war against Ravka.
And that brings us to the last space that will be further developed in ‘Shadow and Bone’: the castle of the king of Ravka, Nikolai. Be careful, this is where curves come. Nikolai was injured by one of Kirigan’s shadows, and now has a worrying wound on his shoulder that seems to be spreading the darkness in his body.. Will it turn into a shadow? That is not the only problem in the kingdom. During the coronation of the new king, a Fjerda woman takes some of the drug jurda parem and kills most of those present, who spit blood from her mouth. terrifying.
Luckily, Alina stops her in time to cause more havoc. And this is where the cliffhanger ending and what trouble lies ahead for the series: the power that Alina uses against the attacker does not come from the light, but from the shadows, exactly like the power of The Dark One. This is the fault of merzost or black magic that he had to use to save Mal, and now it’s taking its toll on him. Worst? The half smile that he exhibits in the last image of the season when he sees that he has succumbed to the shadows.
Will Alina be the new villain of ‘Shadow and Bone’ in its third season? Without a doubt, this is the most important question that the new episodes will have to answer. At the moment it is unknown how the story will continue in the Netflix series.
