Are We Still Excited for the Return of FX’s Atlanta?

Emmy-award winning FX series Atlanta is FINALLY making its way back into our lives. But, are we still excited for its return?

It was recently announced that season 3 of the ground-breaking Atlanta will return on March 24, 2022. It’s no doubt that it has been a long time coming for the fans. With obstacles, such as creator/star Donald Glover’s busy schedule, the recent rise in LaKeith Stanfield’s and Zazie Beetz’s careers, coupled with an unexpected global pandemic, it’s been 4 LONG years since we’ve last seen dope-boy-turned-lyricist Paperboi (Bryan Tyree Henry), ride-or-die homeboy Darius (Stanfield),  and college-drop-out-bum-turned-manager Earn (Glover) hop on that flight headed to UK, in hopes of landing some type of superstar status for Atlanta trapstar.

According to reports and the recent teaser trailer, it’s revealed that the gang, including Earn’s loyal-on-again-off-again girlfriend Vanessa (Beetz), is back and in full-effect. The bulk of the upcoming season was filmed in Europe and follows Paperboi and the crew as they try to maneuver the foreign country and adjust to his newfound success.

Season 3 of Atlanta is comprised of 10 episodes which will air week-to-week on FX, and be available to stream on Hulu the day after the original airing.
