Taylor Sheridan’s drama “Mayor of Kingstown,” starring Jeremy Renner, has been renewed for a third season by the Paramount+ service.
Renner stars as Mike McLuskey, a former inmate who is thrust into a position of power within his influential family that owns prisons. Kyle Chandler plays his older brother, Taylor Handley his younger brother, and Dianne Wiest is their mother.
The second season saw Mike slowly losing control of everything that his family has built – turning to desperate measures to gain back power and control. Emma Laird, Hugh Dillon and Aidan Gillen co-star.
Renner suffered around thirty broken bones in a snow plow accident at the start of the year – some time after he had completed filming the second season. THR broke word of the renewal and added that the order came through months ago, but the streamer delayed a formal announcement while Renner was recovering.
A return date for a third season has not yet been determined, but with Renner’s ongoing recovery and the industry-halting strikes, it’s not clear when it might go into production.
Paramount+ has previously indicated ‘Kingstown’ is its third-best-performing original drama on the platform after “1923” and “Tulsa King”.
