What is Tell Me Lies season 3 about?
When we last left Baird College and the most dramatic wedding of all time back in season 2, lots of new developments changed the game. For starters, Stephen sent Bree an old recording of Evan admitting to cheating on Bree with Lucy. The information hits her like a ton of bricks just as she's preparing to walk down the aisle to Evan with Lucy by her side.
Back in college, Bree had learned that her secret affair with Oliver wasn't so secret. He and his wife had an open marriage, and his wife, who was also Bree's professor, know about the "affair" the whole time. But Bree's problems are nothing compared to the shocking revelations that arise after Drew's death. Lucy blames herself, but Stephen takes the fall for writing the letter.
Going into season 3, there are plenty of tricky dynamics at play as Lucy and Stephen find themselves once again pulled back together in both timelines. Will their relationship actually be different this time, as Lucy hopes in the season 3 trailer? Knowing these two, not much will be different, except for maybe the people they hurt as accidental collateral damage.
Check out the official season 3 synopsis as shared by Hulu:
"Tell Me Lies season 3 follows Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten) and Stephen DeMarco (Jackson White) as they’ve rekindled their tumultuous romance in time for spring semester at Baird College. While they promise things will be different this time, past indiscretions hinder their best intentions, and Lucy finds herself embroiled in a controversy with which she wants nothing to do. Meanwhile, the disastrous repercussions from the previous year also force Lucy and Stephen’s friends to face their own destructive behaviors. As scandalous secrets fester around campus, vicious consequences threaten Lucy and everyone in her circle."
Tell Me Lies season 3 cast
All of our favorite characters will be back for Tell Me Lies season 3, as the main cast remains mostly unchanged going into the new episodes. Grace Van Patten and Jackson White continue to be the series leads as Lucy and Stephen, while the talented group of actors who flesh out the supporting cast and play their friends return to Baird as well.
