AT&T AUDIENCE Network’s adaptation of Stephen King's MR. MERCEDES (or more aptly FINDERS KEEPERS) will be returning for season three with an additional 10 one-hour episodes next month. And today we've just received the highly anticipated trailer for season three.
Truth be told, I'm more than a little behind on the series so I think I'll be skipping this trailer in case of what are sure-to-be major spoilers. But that said, I do plan to catch up with the series ASAP. Meaning as soon as me and the misses are through re-watching BREAKING BAD. But anyhow, don't let me stop you from checking it out above. Just make sure to let us know what you think afterward!
Based on the Bill Hodges trilogy from Stephen King, season three of Mr. Mercedes will closely follow the story contained in “Finders Keepers” the second book of the series, and continue to explore the fallout from the massacre perpetrated by Brady Hartsfield.
More specifically this season's synopsis goes a little something like this:
When beloved local author John Rothstein is found murdered, Hodges, Holly, and Jerome, along with local police, must track down his killer. But this case is more complex than the cold-blooded killing of an American icon. Unpublished novels of Rothstein’s were stolen from his home, and they are worth millions. As the case unfolds, the trio learns that although Brady may be gone, his depravity lives on in the lives of his victims.
Brendan Gleeson returns this season once again as Bill Hodges, and he will be joined by Justine Lupe as Holly Gibney, Jharrel Jerome as Jerome Robinson, and Breeda Wool as Lou Linklatter. Guest stars are set to include the likes of Holland Taylor as Ida Silver and Bruce Dern as John Rothstein.
The series returns with 10 one-hour episodes on Tuesday, September 10 at 10:00 pm ET/PT.
