Anyone who’s binged through the messy relationships and jaw-dropping twists in Tell Me Lies knows that Hulu drama hits different. That toxic pull between Lucy Albright and Stephen DeMarco just keeps dragging everyone back in, no matter how bad it gets. After season 2 left things on a total cliffhanger with betrayals exploding left and right, the big question on everyone’s mind: does season 3 actually drop in January 2026?
Tell Me Lies Season 3 Release Date
Hulu dropped the official word back in November 2025 – season 3 kicks off on January 13, 2026. The first two episodes hit the platform that day, with the rest of the eight-episode run rolling out weekly. That means the finale wraps up around February 24, 2026. Streams on Hulu in the US, and Disney+ everywhere else (or bundled with Hulu on Disney+).
Production wrapped up smooth and fast, which explains the quick turnaround. Fans won’t have to wait years this time around. The trailer landed mid-December 2025, and those first-look photos had everyone talking about the escalating chaos at Baird College.
Tell Me Lies Season 3 Cast
The main crew returns for another round of dysfunction:
- Grace Van Patten playing Lucy Albright
- Jackson White as the manipulative Stephen DeMarco
- Catherine Missal as Bree

These new additions promise extra layers of tension and side stories.
Tell Me Lies Season 3 Potential Plot
Things pick right up in the spring semester. Lucy and Stephen decide to give their rollercoaster romance another shot, swearing it’ll be different now. Yeah, right – old lies and mistakes come crashing back quick. Lucy ends up tangled in some campus scandal she never asked for, while the whole friend group deals with the fallout from last year’s disasters.
Secrets keep piling up, friendships crack under the pressure, and those destructive choices start catching up hard. Cast interviews call this one the darkest yet, with more revenge, heartbreak, and straight-up messiness.
