Social media is buzzing over the latest episode (Ep. 6) of smash hit Paramount+ series Lioness where Zoe Saldaña‘s seemingly invincible character “Joe McNamara” is kidnapped and tortured to the point of losing a pinky toe while her team races against the clock to find her before its too late.
If you’re not on the Lioness train, we highly suggest you catch up and get on board before the final two episodes of Season 3 which will surely be the talk of social media.
In an interview with Esquire, the cast teased a potential Season 4 of the not-yet-renewed series after Season 3’s upcoming finale cliff-hanger.
“You won’t want [Lioness] to end [after season 3],” said actress Laysla De Oliveira, who plays Lioness Cruz Manuelos, in an interview with ScreenRant. “It ends on a cliff-hanger.”
Jumping in, her co-star Jill Wagner said she isn’t satisfied with the ending of Season 3, adding, “When people see what [Sheridan] wrote for the finale, we are getting a season 4 or I’ll pay you 100 bucks.”
With Saldaña shining as the “highest ranking officer wherever she goes,” the intense female-led espionage thriller continued on a global scale with the Lioness team deployed on its most personal assignment yet.
Check out the Season 3 trailer below:
In addition to the gripping tandem of Saldaña and Nicole Kidman, Lioness also stars Oscar-winner Morgan Freeman, Emmy-nominee Michael Kelly, Laysla De Oliveira, Dave Annable, Jill Wagner, LaMonica Garrett, James Jordan, Genesis Rodriguez, Austin Hébert, Jonah Wharton, Thad Luckinbill, Hannah Love Lanier, and Ian Bohen.
Making light of a dark situation, Saldaña posted herself jokingly spinning the pinky-less prosthetic foot used in the show’s now-infamous torture scene which, naturally, sent social media spiraling into hysteria.
Are you locked into Lioness Season 3? If so, do you think there’s a mole who set Joe up? If not, are you planning on joining the rest of us? Tell us down below and peep the social media hysteria over Joe losing her pinky toe and more on the flip.
