Netflix has confirmed a new filming schedule for The Hunting Wives season 3, along with a significant change in production location. Although season 2 has not yet arrived on the platform, the third installment already has set dates and a new filming base after leaving North Carolina behind.
According to an updated production listing, filming for season 3 will begin on December 2, 2026, and run until April 9, 2027. This is an approximately four-month shoot, in line with season 2, which was filmed between mid-November 2025 and March 2026. These dates are slightly later than previously reported, which pointed to a start on November 30 and a wrap on April 1, meaning both ends have been pushed back by about a week.
The series will film under the working production title Love Chuck Productions and will be based at Great Point Studios in Douglasville, near Atlanta, Georgia.
Why The Hunting Wives is moving to Georgia
This move confirms what had been anticipated months ago: changes to North Carolina's film tax incentive program prevented the production from returning to the Charlotte area, where the first two seasons were filmed.
At the time, producer Joan Cunningham had noted that the series would “likely” move to Georgia, and that forecast has now been confirmed. Cunningham remains attached to the project as a line producer for season 3, although viewers will have to say goodbye to familiar locations, such as Margo's house at Lake Norman.
Who is on the team for The Hunting Wives season 3
Creator Rebecca Cutter returns as the showrunner. Cutter had previously teased that season 3 “will be even more scandalous and twisted.”
Julie Anne Robinson, known for her work on Bridgerton and Dead to Me, is listed as the director for this new batch of episodes. On the production side, Erwin Stoff and Jeremy Beim return alongside May Cobb, author of the novel on which the series is based. Casting is handled by Nicole Abellera Hallman and Jeanne McCarthy, while Lionsgate Television and 3 Arts Entertainment continue to produce the series for Netflix.
Season 3 will once again consist of eight episodes, the same number as previous installments.
Expected cast for the new season
Netflix has not officially confirmed the cast for season 3. However, Brittany Snow and Malin Åkerman are expected to return as Sophie O'Neill and Margo Banks, respectively, pending the consequences of the season 2 finale on their characters.
When could The Hunting Wives season 3 premiere on Netflix
If the filming schedule remains unchanged, the arrival of season 3 should not be expected before late 2027. Season 2 finished filming in March 2026 and premiered on November 26 of that same year, which implies an eight-month wait between the end of filming and the premiere.
If the same timeframe is applied after the scheduled wrap in April 2027, season 3 could arrive around December 2027, although Netflix could choose to delay the premiere until early 2028.
In the meantime, season 2 of The Hunting Wives will arrive on Netflix on November 26, 2026.
