Hulu is going deeper into the tangled web of Tell Me Lies.
The streamer has ordered a third season of Tell Me Lies, which follows the twisted/toxic romance between two people (Grace Van Patten and Jackson White) in their college and young adult years. The renewal comes about two months after season two ended on a cliffhanger. Meaghan Oppenheimer, who created the series based on Carola Lovering’s 2018 novel, will continue as showrunner.
Like most streamers, Hulu doesn’t release detailed viewing data about its programming. However, it notes that Tell Me Lies remained in the on-screen “Top 15 Today” list for more than 50 consecutive days during and after its season two run.
Following the season two finale, Oppenheimer told The Hollywood Reporter that she wasn’t sure whether a third season was in the offing — but if it ended up not happening, she’d be OK with leaving some of the show’s stories unresolved: “I always like to leave people guessing. And I also think some of my favorite shows, even when they end, leave things not completely resolved,” she said. “I don’t hate those stories that have open endings. So I was sort of of the mind of, let’s have a cliffhanger so that people want to come back and, if we don’t get to answer it, then that’s life (laughs). I’m always trying to surprise people. I’m always trying to surprise the audience, because it’s just very fun to do.”
Along with Van Patten and White, the season two cast of Tell Me Lies includes Cat Missal, Spencer House, Sonia Mena, Branden Cook, Alicia Crowder and Tom Ellis.
The series comes from 20th Television. Oppenheimer executive produces with Emma Roberts, co-founder Karah Preiss and Matt Matruski of Belletrist; Laura Lewis and Stephanie Noonan of Rebelle Media; and Shannon Gibson and Sam Schlaifer. Lovering is a consulting producer.
