'Titans' Season 3: Release date, spoilers, plot, cast and all about the HBO Max original
The heroes from the DC Universe are set to enthrall viewers one more time as 'Titans' return for another season on HBO. The show was renewed for a third season with a brand new set of stories following the further adventures of Dick Grayson (Brenton Thwaites) and his team of young heroes.
The announcement of the third season was made before Season 2 ended and it was revealed that it will be hitting the network in 2020. However, the Covid-19 pandemic changed everything and the shooting could never get started on time. Production resumed by October 2020 and concluded by June 2021. The third season will be the first to release on HBO Max following its acquisition of DC Universe's original programming.
Here’s everything you need to know about the project:
Release Date
'Titans' Season 3 will be premiering exclusively on HBO Max on Thursday, August 12. Those who are not subscribed to the OTT platform yet can avail of the $15/ month plan. In case, you are not in the United States, using VPN will hopefully help your case.
Plot
Season 3 of Titans will take the group from San Francisco into the heart of Gotham City. Here, Dick Grayson will meet up with Barbara Gordon, the former Batgirl who was paralyzed by Joker and now heads up the GCPD (via Variety). The two will work together and try to learn from the "mistakes of their parents", according to showrunner Greg Walker.
