Which Streaming Service Will The Cw’S Legacies Season 3 Go To?
Wondering when The CW’s Legacies Season 3 will hit Netflix? Normally, new seasons of CW shows head one of two places: either Netflix, or HBO Max. Shows that premiered after the original Netflix deal expired usually head to HBO Max, the WarnerMedia owned service, instead.
And on the Netflix front, typically new seasons of CW shows hit the service eight days after their finales air. So Charmed Season 3 (which ended on July 16), All American Season 3 (which ended on July 19), and The Flash Season 7 (which ended on July 20) are all available on Netflix, right now. Meanwhile, other recently finished shows like Nancy Drew Season 2, Batwoman Season 2 and Kung Fu Season 1 are all on HBO Max, while Walker Season 1 and Superman & Lois Season 1 should be headed to the latter streaming service in due time (the delay until CW shows hit HBO Max is a little longer than Netflix).
Particularly given Season 4 will premiere in a little over a month on The CW, on Thursday, October 14 at 9/8c? The good news is, Decider has confirmed with Warner Bros. TV that yes, Legacies Season 3 will be heading to Netflix. There are a couple of potential explanations for the delay, but the biggest one is that technically Legacies didn’t finish Season 4.
This has happened before with several other CW shows during COVID (for example, the last three episodes of Riverdale Season 4 became the first three episodes of Riverdale Season 5), though has seemingly not stopped those seasons from popping up on their respective streaming services. Is it possible, then, that Netflix is holding off posting the season until it can tell the complete story? The CW hasn’t released any specific info about Legacies Season 4, so we don’t know if what used to be Season 3, Episode 17 is now categorized as Season 4, Episode 1.
On that note, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment also hasn’t announced when Legacies Season 3 will be hitting DVD and Blu-Ray, so perhaps finishing the season in style is the priority. Or maybe someone lost the season in their couch, who knows? Regardless, expect that you won’t have to wait forever to watch Legacies Season 3 on Netflix… Just a little while longer.
Who Stars In Legacies?
Legacies is among the huge collection of The CW shows that will be returning for another season but with the caveat that they’ll be airing a lot later than usual. It stars Danielle Rose Russell as Hope Mikaelson who is attending a new school where she can expand on her supernatural abilities. Seasons 1 and 2 of Legacies are both on Netflix in the United States with season 1 landing back on April 5th, 2019 and the second added on April 3rd, 2020.
The CW didn’t be air Legacies season 3 in its usual October slot. Instead, it was been moved back alongside the other titles within The CW’s slate because of filming delays. Season 4 of Legacies is scheduled to begin on The CW on October 14th, 2021.
Unfortunately, with its delay on network television, that means it will be delayed on Netflix too but worse than that, it’s not even come when we were expecting it to. Given the show wrapped in mid-June 2021, we were expecting season 3 to arrive in late June or early July 2021. Will Legacies be coming to Netflix outside the United States?
Most regions will probably have to wait until HBO Max’s global rollout instead. Let us know in the comments down below.
Why Did Legacies End Its Second Season Early?
Even though Legacies ended its second season early due to production shutting down amid the COVID-19 pandemic, it still managed to deliver a number of cliffhangers: Hope Mikaelson is currently asleep — as in, can’t be woken up — and oh yeah, the Necromancer used Rafael to stab Landon with the golden arrow!! Now, EW has an exclusive first look promo at the CW series’ upcoming third season, and both of those cliffhangers are the focus of conversation. While Alaric seems to be struggling with how they help Hope, Rafael has come up with a solution for how to save Landon … or so he thinks.
Put Landon’s spirit in his body. Meanwhile, Landon seems like he’s preparing to say his final goodbye.
