Are you ready for another season of murder, mystery, and mayhem in the creepy forest of Villefranche? If you are, then you might be disappointed to hear that Black Spot Season 3 is not happening anytime soon. Or maybe ever. Yes, you read that right. The French-Belgian thriller series that kept us on the edge of our seats for two seasons has been cancelled by France 2, the original network that aired it.
But don’t despair, dear readers. There is still hope for the fans of this dark and twisted show. In this article, we will tell you everything we know (or don’t know) about the possible future of Black Spot, and what we can expect from it if it ever returns. So grab your flashlight and your courage, and let’s dive into the forest of secrets.
Black Spot Season 3 Plot: What’s next?
The last time we saw our favorite characters, they were facing some major cliffhangers. Laurène (Suliane Brahim), the badass police chief who survived a kidnapping by a mysterious creature in the forest when she was a teenager, had finally found out the truth about her past. She learned that her father was not her biological father, but rather a member of a cult that worshipped the forest and its ancient powers. She also discovered that she had a half-brother, Roman (Théo Costa-Marini), who was behind some of the murders in the town. And to top it all off, she was shot by her own father in the final scene of season 2.
Meanwhile, Franck (Laurent Capelluto), the eccentric prosecutor who came to investigate the high crime rate in Villefranche, had developed a romantic relationship with Laurène. He also uncovered some of the secrets of the town, such as the existence of a mysterious underground bunker where experiments were conducted on human subjects. He also learned that his boss, Delphine (Marina Hands), was involved in a conspiracy to cover up the crimes and exploit the forest’s resources.
So what would happen in season 3 if it ever got made? Well, we can only speculate, but here are some possible scenarios:
- Laurène would survive her gunshot wound and continue to explore her connection to the forest and its supernatural forces. She would also try to stop Roman and his cult from harming more people and destroying the forest.
- Franck would try to expose Delphine and her accomplices, and bring them to justice. He would also try to protect Laurène and their relationship from any threats.
- The other characters, such as Nounours (Hubert Delattre), Cora (Camille Aguilar), Bertrand (Samuel Jouy), Leila (Naidra Ayadi), and Gaspard (Dan Herzberg), would face their own challenges and dilemmas as they deal with their personal and professional lives in Villefranche.
- The forest would reveal more of its secrets and mysteries, such as its origin, its purpose, and its influence on the people and animals living in it.
Black Spot Season 3 Cast: Who’s in it?
If Black Spot Season 3 ever gets made, we can expect most of the main cast members to return, unless they die or leave the show for some reason. Here are some of the actors who would likely reprise their roles:
- Suliane Brahim as Laurène Weiss
- Laurent Capelluto as Franck Siriani
- Hubert Delattre as Martial Ferrandis (aka Nounours)
- Camille Aguilar as Cora Weiss
- Samuel Jouy as Bertrand Steiner
- Naidra Ayadi as Leila Barami
- Dan Herzberg as Gaspard Bellan
- Théo Costa-Marini as Roman Barthélémy
Some of the actors who might not return are:
- Marina Hands as Delphine Garnier (she might be arrested or killed)
- Renaud Rutten as Louis Hermann (he might retire or die)
- Anne Suarez as Léa Steiner (she might leave Villefranche or die)
- Olivier Bonjour as Gerald Steiner (he might be arrested or killed)
We might also see some new faces joining the cast, either as allies or enemies of our protagonists.
Will there be Black Spot Season 3?
The short answer is: we don’t know. The long answer is: it depends.
As we mentioned before, Black Spot Season 3 was cancelled by France 2, which means that there is no official confirmation or announcement about the show’s future. However, that doesn’t mean that the show is dead for good. There are some factors that could influence the possibility of a revival or a renewal of the show, such as:
- The popularity and demand of the show. Black Spot has a loyal fan base, especially in France and Belgium, where it was originally aired. It also gained international recognition and acclaim when it was picked up by Amazon Prime and Netflix, which made it available to millions of viewers around the world. The show has received positive reviews from critics and audiences alike, praising its originality, its atmosphere, its acting, and its storytelling. If there is enough interest and support from the fans, the show might catch the attention of another network or streaming service that could give it a new home and a new chance.
- The availability and willingness of the cast and crew. Black Spot has a talented and charismatic cast, led by Suliane Brahim and Laurent Capelluto, who have great chemistry and charisma on screen. The show also has a creative and visionary team behind the scenes, such as Mathieu Missoffe, the creator and writer of the show, and Thierry Poiraud and Julien Despaux, the directors of the show. If these people are still interested and available to work on the show, they might be able to convince another network or streaming service to pick up the show and continue their story.
- The feasibility and profitability of the show. Black Spot is not a cheap or easy show to make. It has a high production value, with stunning cinematography, impressive special effects, and elaborate sets and costumes. It also has a complex and ambitious plot, with multiple layers, twists, and mysteries. These factors require a lot of time, money, and resources to produce a quality show that meets the expectations of the fans and the critics. If another network or streaming service decides to take on the show, they would have to consider these aspects and weigh them against the potential benefits and risks of investing in the show.
So, in conclusion, there is no definitive answer to whether or not there will be Black Spot Season 3. It all depends on how much the fans want it, how much the cast and crew want it, and how much another network or streaming service wants it.
Black Spot Season 3 Release Date: Speculation!
Let’s say that by some miracle, Black Spot Season 3 gets greenlit by another network or streaming service. When would we be able to watch it? Well, again, we can only speculate, but here are some possible scenarios:
- If Black Spot Season 3 gets picked up by Amazon Prime or Netflix, which already have the rights to stream the first two seasons globally (except for some countries in Europe), then we might expect a release date sometime in 2023 or 2024. This is assuming that they would start production as soon as possible, and follow a similar schedule as the previous seasons.
- If Black Spot Season 3 gets picked up by another network or streaming service that doesn’t have the rights to stream the first two seasons globally (such as HBO Max or Hulu), then we might expect a longer wait time for a release date. This is because they would have to negotiate with France 2 and other distributors to acquire the rights to stream the first two seasons globally (or at least in their regions), before they can start production on the third season. This could take months or even years, depending on the legal and financial aspects involved.
- If Black Spot Season 3 gets picked up by another network or streaming service that only has the rights to stream the third season in their regions (such as BBC or Canal+), then we might expect a release date sometime in 2022 or 2023 for those regions only. This is assuming that they would start production as soon as possible, and follow a similar schedule as the previous seasons. However, this would also mean that fans from other regions would have to wait longer or find other ways to watch the third season legally.
Of course, these are all hypothetical scenarios based on our best guesses. The actual release date of Black Spot Season 3 (if it ever happens) could be sooner or later than what we predicted.
Black Spot Season 3 Trailer: Is there a teaser?
Unfortunately, there is no trailer or teaser for Black Spot Season 3 yet. And there probably won’t be one until there is an official confirmation or announcement about the show’s renewal or revival.
However, if you want to refresh your memory or catch up on what happened in the first two seasons of Black Spot, you can watch them on Amazon Prime or Netflix (depending on your region). You can also watch some clips and interviews from the cast and crew on YouTube.
