Poker Face's Season 2 finale may be called "The End of the Road," but it's clear that creator Rian Johnson and showrunner Tony Tost have a lot more in store for human lie detector Charlie Cale (Natasha Lyonne).
By the close of Season 2, Charlie has lost her beloved Plymouth Barracuda and discovered a nemesis in the world-feared assassin the Iguana, who's been posing as Charlie's sidekick and confidante Alex (Patti Harrison) for the last several episodes. The Iguana is able to hide any physical tells, so she can do the impossible and lie to Charlie. As she puts it, she's the Moriarty to Charlie's Sherlock.
Charlie's unknowing involvement with the Iguana means she's officially wanted by the FBI, especially since she led the assassin directly to the safe house where Beatrix Hasp (Rhea Perlman) was hiding out. Now that Charlie's back on the run, this time with a mysterious enemy somewhere on the loose, that opens up the door for more places for her to lay low — and more places for her to solve crimes, of course. Will Poker Face get to explore these new cases in Season 3?
Is there going to be a Poker Face Season 3?
As of yet, Peacock has not yet announced whether Poker Face will have a Season 3. However, due to the overwhelmingly positive critical response to Season 2, as well as the series charting in Peacock's Top 10 TV Shows list, I'm hopeful we'll see more of Charlie (and more A-list guest stars) in the future.
When is Poker Face Season 3 coming out?
If we are blessed with a third season of Poker Face, when could we expect it? There's no telling for certain currently, but we can make an educated guess based on the wait time between Seasons 1 and 2.
Season 1 premiered Jan. 26, 2023, with Season 2 premiering May 8, 2025, meaning there were well over two years between seasons. That's become the norm for many big-name streaming shows, like House of the Dragon and Bridgerton. However, the Poker Face wait was also impacted by the 2023 WGA and SAG strikes, which halted TV and film production. Without any strikes, turnaround time on a potential Poker Face Season 3 could be faster, and we could be back on the road with Charlie sooner than we think.
Poker Face is now streaming on Peacock.
