Titans Season 3 Trailer Drops This Wednesday; Tweet Teases "Royalty"

So you've burned through the preview images, the official teaser, and all of the social media updates you could possibly get your hands on, and yet, it still doesn't feel complete? Well, no worries because the fine folks at HBO Max's Titans know exactly what you need and they're getting it ready for you for Wednesday. That's right, the trailer for the Gotham-set third season is set to hit online tomorrow (Wednesday. July 14)- and since it came with an image of Starfire (Anna Diop) with the word "Royalty" in the caption, we're assuming much more of a focus on her storyline than what we saw in the previously-released teaser. And to go along with the day's festivities, the show's Twitter account dropped two past episode titles as clues to when to expect the trailer: "The Asylum" & "Ghosts" (let's see who figures it out).

Here's a look at the tweet from HBO Max's Titans that we mentioned earlier:

Here's a look back at the first Season 3 teaser for HBO Max's Titans (and its "Death in the Family" vibes) set to return with three episodes on August 12, followed by executive producer Greg Walker's thoughts on two major additions to the cast via EW.:

On Why Vincent Kartheiser's Dr. Jonathan Crane aka Scarecrow Makes for the Perfect Season 3 Threat: "Think Hannibal Lecter. He's been given the opportunity to opine on ways to stop villains, and a villain breaks out in Gotham and it draws [Dick Grayson] to work with him," Walker explained. "So much of our show is about becoming a family and the fears that people have as they grow older and get older. Crane seems to be, in many ways, a perfect villain in that he exploits fear. The human mind and heart become the battlefield. This is someone who's working off your feelings, and your emotions, and that's where we want to live. This is a learned psychologist who understands the human mind but also has a deep, dark vendetta to destroy people in a way that you need to be able to manifest as an actor – to find the broken and the mania. And [Kartheiser] handles both very well."

On the Role Savannah Welch's Barbara Gordon Will Play in Nightwing's Life: "In our story with Dick returning to Gotham – and Gotham is a huge character this season – it's about sons and daughters, [and] stepping into the shadow of your parents," said Walker. "Barbara is going to be conflicted by Dick's arrival. Barbara's feeling is that the legacy of Bruce and Jim has been this idea that she thinks is antiquated and inefficient: the God syndrome, meaning that superheroes create the situation where they're the heroes. They drop in on a situation, solve it, and then they leave. And she feels that basically disempowers people from solving their own problems and that the people of Gotham need to figure out how to solve their own problems and not be passive victims waiting for a superhero to save the day."
