FX’s ‘Atlanta’ Season 3 Delayed

Date:

If you wanted to audition or even just watch the third season of Atlanta, you will have to wait.

At the Television Critics Association press tour on Monday, it was announced the upcoming season would be delayed.

“I don’t know whether we’ll have Atlanta or not. The writers are back working right now, thank God.” said FX chief John Landgraf, confirming that the show will not be back for “this Emmy cycle.”

Landgraf further explained, “As you might imagine, Donald Glover is sort of the king of all media, and he just has had an incredibly complicated life. He’s had personal things he’s had to deal with, from injuries to other things I’d rather not say publicly that just have to do with not with his personal life but his extended family. So I think one of the things that is just a reality of television today is you have to wait. We have so many things now that don’t cycle back on a regular basis … From my standpoint, I wish for the fans as well as for us that we could get everything back on an annual basis but, again, you just have to make a decision about quantity over quality at a certain point — and we’re just erring on the side of quality.”

During the Sundance premiere of her upcoming film, Wounds, Zazie Beetz said:  “Ideally we would be shooting now; that’s not happening. Everybody’s schedules are sort of all over the place — they’re hoping for spring sometime, but no dates. Everybody’s busy, and Donald [Glover] had his tour in the fall, and that doesn’t lend itself to time for scriptwriting. I know that they have a couple of episodes together, but I don’t have any real information.”

It is important to note Glover’s father died late last year.
