Zoe Saldaña is ready to take on the enemy in the Season 3 trailer for Taylor Sheridan‘s espionage thriller series Lioness.
“I’m a soldier. And a soldier’s job is to fight,” Saldaña’s Joe tells her kids before she embarks on her most dangerous mission yet.
Footage then reveals a battlefield as U.S. Secretary of State Edwin Mullins (Morgan Freeman) and CIA Deputy Director of Operations Byron Westfield (Michael Kelly) reveal that national security has been compromised.
Kaitlyn (Kidman) warns Joe, “You must asume they have your phone, assume they have everything. You better get ready.”
The trailer concludes with Edwin saying, “We’ll let the chips fall where they may. May God have mercy on us.”
Watch on Deadline
Starring and executive produced by Saldaña and Kidman, in Season 3 hidden networks, foreign operatives, and personal betrayals collide. Joe (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 (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.
In Season 2, the CIA’s fight against terror moved closer to home. Joe (Saldaña), Kaitlyn (Kidman), and Byron (Kelly) enlisted a new Lioness operative to infiltrate a previously unknown threat. With pressure mounting from all sides, Joe was forced to confront the profound personal sacrifices she made as the leader of the Lioness program.
