‘The Great’ has quickly become a fan-favorite series, captivating viewers with its witty writing, stunning visuals, and outstanding performances. Hulu has already revealed the trailer for the third season, which will release on May 12, 2023, on Hulu.
Throughout the second season, we watched Catherine navigate the aftermath of her successful coup and her plans to meet the Ottoman Sultan to discuss peace. The finale opened with Catherine and Peter doing the deed, and Aunt Elizabeth saw through the door, happy that they had finally made it as a married couple. After they finished, Catherine caught Archbishop hiding, who stated that God had abandoned him.
The second season of ‘The Great’ ended with a dramatic finale that left fans eagerly waiting for the next season. The tension between Catherine and Peter came to a head during Marial and Maxim's wedding, where their supporters were armed and ready for a fight.
However, when Peter publicly apologized, Catherine seemingly forgave him and asked to see him in his room. But the unexpected happened when Catherine attempted to stab Peter but ended up attacking Peter's double, Pugachev, instead. After a peaceful reconciliation, this incident raises a lot of questions and leaves fans wondering what will happen between the two.
As the third season of "The Great" draws near, we can't help but speculate on what's in store for Catherine and Peter's tumultuous relationship. With the explosive ending of season 2 leaving many questions unanswered, such as the meaning behind Peter and Catherine's visions, it's likely that season 3 will delve deeper into the dynamics between the Empress of Russia and her unruly husband as they attempt to coexist within the confines of the royal court.
The show follows the journey of Catherine the Great, played by Elle Fanning, as she rises to power and navigates the treacherous waters of Russian politics. With all 10 episodes of the highly anticipated third season set to premiere on May 12 on Hulu, fans are eagerly waiting to see what lies in store for Catherine and her tumultuous relationship with Peter, played by Nicholas Hoult.
Beyond the personal drama, viewers can expect to see continued explorations of the power struggles and political intrigues that make ‘The Great’ such a captivating watch. The show's reputation for razor-sharp wit and dark humor means that the upcoming season is sure to bring plenty of clever quips and jaw-dropping plot twists. While Hulu has yet to release any official details about the third season, fans can mark their calendars for May 12th and prepare for another binge-worthy batch of episodes.
