Titans Season 3 Cast Video Confirms HBO Max Series Return This August
It would appear that the long journey we've taken with director and DoP Boris Mojsovski is soon coming to an end, which is bittersweet for us but fantastic news for fans who've been waiting patiently for the third season of (now) HBO Max's Titans. Bittersweet for us because it's been both fun and educational as Mojsovski took fans behind the scenes to update them on how it was all coming together- and sharing some on-set looks at Curran Walters, Anna Diop, and Brenton Thwaites, and others along the way. But our loss is a whole lot of fans' gains, with the streaming service announcing on Friday that the live-action DC Comics adaptation is set to return this August- well, it's probably better hearing it from the cast themselves.
That's right, here's a look at some returning and new faces for the third season making sure Titans fans keep their August calendar open- and make sure to stay until the end of the video with a slightly ominous closing:
For the third season, executive producer Greg Walker wants fans of Anna Diop's Starfire to know that they're be learning much more about the favorite this season. With Damaris Lewis' Blackfire being upped to a series regular, Walker says viewers will learn more about their home planet of Tamaran and their time there: "We're planning a big season for Kory this year. The arrival of her sister/nemesis Blackfire launches Kory down a path where she uncovers both secrets about her past and clues to her destiny… all of which will lead to her true calling as Starfire. Plus, we have a few other surprises in store for hardcore Starfire fans this season."
Walker also wants to dig into the backstory on how Conor Leslie's Donna Troy returns from the land of the dearly departed this season, and what that means in regards to an afterlife and spiritual connections. "It's true, but there are ways we can kinda skirt some of the normal life and death rules for those of us that are kinda more human bound. We've got some exciting opportunities and stories ahead for Donna Troy and Rachel, and the whole underworld we've made. We'll go into what it's like as a transition stage," teased Walker. As for how Donna could potentially return, Walker offered a response that fans on social media have been hinting about for months. "DC Comics loves the Lazarus Pit," Walker teased. "I have no comment about that." As for the impact her electrocution will have on her life moving forward, Walker says that aspect of her story that they will "absolutely explore.
