Fort Worth

Paramount+ has released a slew of new photos for “Lioness” season 3.

The Taylor Sheridan-created series began filming in Fort Worth in October 2025 and wrapped in March. The espionage thriller follows CIA operative Joe (Zoe Saldaña) as she balances her “personal and professional lives as the tip of the spear in the agency’s war on terror.”

Paramount+ announced last week that “Lioness” will premiere its third season on Sunday, Aug. 2.

“Hidden networks, foreign operatives, and personal betrayals collide. Joe (Saldaña) walks the line between duty and home as unseen forces circle her world. Patterns appear where they shouldn’t, names vanish, and paths rearrange. Guided by Kaitlyn (Nicole Kidman) and Westfield (Michael Kelly), Joe confronts enemies operating in the shadows, leaving her to reckon with a war that now reaches into every part of her life,” the season 3 synopsis states.

In addition to the synopsis and release date, Paramount+ released a bevy of new photos that tease what’s to come this season. Here’s a look.
