Outer Banks Season Three Cast: Who is returning and who is new?

A press release from What's on Netflix, which stated that Shanon Burke, Josh Pate, and Jonas Pate will be returning as executive producers and showrunners, was also released.

It is also known that some of the most important cast members will be returning to season 3.

• Chase Stokes
• Madison Bailey
• Jonathan Daviss
• Madelyn Cline
• Rudy Pankow
• Austin North
• Charles Esten
• Drew Starkey
• Carlacia Grant was promoted to regular season status for season 3, after she made her debut in season 2.

We received word via Deadline that three major castings were announced for the third season of Outer Banks in June 2022.

These are the new members of the cast that will be featured in future episodes:

• Andy MacQueen will portray Carlos Singh, a Caribbean Don, who is smart, sophisticated, and ruthless and embarks on his own treasure hunt.
• Fiona Palomo will portray Sofia (Netflix's Control Z). She is a Pogue who secretly longs to join the country club. She is likable and sociable, which leads to a closer connection with Rafe.
• Lou Ferrigno Jr will portray Ryan in season 3. He is Singh's most senior security officer and enforcer. Although he's had enough job experience to be able to maintain a calm head, he also has a good idea of what can happen in the event of a failure.

Local news station WCBD News 2 reported that on July 1, the series had begun casting a look-alike for John-B.

These words are:

According to casting agents, the director of the show is seeking a young actor who can portray John B the lead character next week.

Candidates must be Caucasian men between 5 and 7 years of age with dark brown hair and hazel or brown eyes. If your child falls within this age bracket and is able to resemble Chase Stokes, you are not allowed to submit them.

Castings were made for Kook Dads, Kooks and Pogues as well as bartenders, waitstaff and photo doubles.

IMDb suggests that a few smaller castings were made in preparation for the new season, including:

• Art Newkirk is Officer Henderson
• Angela Lentz as Cruise Ship Patron
• Drew Broderick is a Security Guard

Alexander Jennings was one of the body-doubles involved in the hit-and run incident that occurred during season 3. This tragically saw Jennings lose his life. Kimmie Stewart, the casting director, stated to The Post and Courier that they are all still in shock and added that Jennings was "one of my most kind and generous friends."

Is Outer Banks Season 3 in production?

Official Production Status - Filming In Progress (February 2022).

We reported in December 2021 on filming dates for Outer Banks Season 3.

The filming schedules are subject to change. Season 3 started in Charleston, South Carolina, on February 16, 2022. It will continue through August 19, 2022.

You'll now notice that while the series is set in North Carolina, it films in South Carolina. It is because of several reasons, including Netflix's original objection to the bill for the bathrooms. According to reports, Outer Banks is now back in the Charleston region of SC.

Outer Banks has an estimated episode budget of $5 million, which means that season 3's total budget will amount to around $50 million.

As in previous seasons, Season 3 will feature 10 episodes.

Valerie Weiss, 20,22 posted an Instagram post on February 14th, confirming filming had begun on February 15, with the caption:

"Big Love to My @obx Family as They Start Shooting Season 3 Tomorrow !!!! We will see you soon.

Valerie Weiss will direct multiple Outer Banks episodes, including the one shot in an overnight session early August 2022.

A number of casting members have also posted photos. You'll be kept informed throughout the production, with any behind-the scenes photos.

Netflix then announced that new casting pictures were being added to the series' production schedule on February 28th. The series was in production for more than a week at that time.

What was the performance of Outer Banks season 2, on Netflix?

The top 10 Netflix series that viewed the most on Netflix between July 26th-20th 2021 accounted for 322.59 Million viewings worldwide.

For the first four weeks after its debut on Netflix, it was at number one.

Below you can view how the viewing hours were divided.

The series was ranked 8th on the IMDBPro MovieMeter.

Why is it taking so long to renew? We don't know the exact reason for why it took so long to renew, but previous renewals can be a good source of information.

Salary negotiations will likely be less with large ensemble casts like Outer Banks. We saw significant salary negotiations after season 2 for various shows such as 13 Reasons why and Never have I Ever.

Chase Stokes stated in an interview that he felt hopeful, but was unsure if there would be a renewal.

"We have such an amazing team of writers so it's up to them that the story will be figured out. He said that every script we receive is just too much. "I'm excited to finally get it, and I hope Netflix will give us the go ahead," he stated in December 2021. Still waiting patiently, we are still trying to find out when or if it will happen. We are still in uncertainty. We want it because the fans are there. But we will wait to see if it happens.

Netflix Season 3: What can you expect from Outer Banks?

Let's recap season 2 of Outer Banks, and how it will lead to season 3.

Pope wants to retrieve the stolen golden cross, so the war between the Pogues and Camerons will continue.

Pope tells them that they are not finished fleeing from the vessel and seek safety on an abandoned remote island. Their family reported them missing so they decide to remain on the island. However, it is likely that they will not stay there for long.

Pope is likely to continue learning about his family's connections with the Cross of Santo Domingo.

Ward Cameron, who notably faked his suicide in season 2, is trying to survive off the radar. Ward Cameron is likely to continue playing a crucial role in the conflict, despite a couple of run-ins with John B, which saw him spare his life. But will he ever be caught?

Season 3 will be the most interesting season. It is unclear how or why Big John has returned. Although he seems to claim that he knew where Denmark's Cross was, a doctor diagnosed him as being 'half-dead. How will this have an impact on his future? We will have to see.

Was there anything the cast or crew has teased about a third season of The Walking Dead? Here is a list:

Josh Pate spoke out about Big John to EW.

John B is going to have to come to terms with his father's death. John B will need to find a way to live with both his imagined version and the truth of his deceased dad. This gives us lots of father-son themes to work with.

Shannon Burke, Josh Pate and Jonas Pate have all said the Pogues may be down but they are not out. This suggests that they will soon return to the search for gold.

Madelyn Cline stated to ET about the season 3 romance. She said that they'd like to find out more about their relationship.

"It would be great to have them get to know one another in season 3 if they get it. Although they are married, they don't really know much about one another. It would be great fun. Both of them have been through quite a bit together.

EliteDaily was teased by Chase Stokes that Season 3 would feature a "vibe shift". He said that writers like to keep them on their toes and that it creates performances that are encapsulating the present. "I don't know what's happening beyond what was shot in Barbados," Chase Stokes said to EliteDaily. He also added that "I believe a lot more loose ends will be tied up." There will be many questions answered. These kids will be put to the test, as usual.

What is the Outer Banks Season 3 Netflix Release Date?

At the moment, there is no release date on Netflix for Outer Banks Season 3.

This is despite the rumors that the device would be released in December 2022 (this has not been confirmed).

We can speculate on the future based upon previous seasons' production schedules.

The second season of Outer Banks aired between August 2020 and March 2021. It was released at the end July 2021. Season 3 will likely be available on Netflix December 2022 if a similar filming schedule is adhered to and no problems or delays are encountered. We expect Outer Banks will return Q1–Q2 2023.

What number of seasons will there be on the Outer Banks?

Outer Banks may be one of Netflix’s most beloved shows but it doesn’t guarantee that the series will continue indefinitely.

One of the producers said that we might be near the end. Entertainment Weekly spoke with Pate:

"Ever since the beginning, we have always considered it to be a 4-season or 5-season series, but certainly four. It's been pretty well-arced. It's my hope that one day we will be able to tell these stories.

Jonas Pate spoke to Decider about the future of the series shortly after its season 2 premiere. This is the number. It's definitely more than three.

Additional Outer Banks Latest Since Season 2

You may have seen that Madelyn and Chase Stokes had been in a relationship, but it seems that things have gone sour.

Alyssa Scheinmel, author of Lights Out: Outer Banks Book Lights Out is a great book for fans who are looking to learn more about the series. This book is just prior to season 1.

The book has the following contents:

"It's Spring Break in the Outer Banks and there are many rich tourists on the Outer Banks. The last thing JJ and John B want to do is spend their week watching Kooks in action, so they plan a fishing getaway to the notoriously dangerous Frying Pan Shoals—nicknamed 'Graveyard of the Atlantic' for good reason.'
