ABC’s Will Trent‘s second season ended after ten thrilling episodes. The police procedural drama, based on Karin Slaughter’s book series, has consistently garnered a huge following and has become the top performer on the network.
Since the second season comprised fewer episodes than the first, audiences just couldn’t get enough of the series and have already started awaiting its return. But has Will Trent been renewed for season 3, and if so, when will it premiere? Here is everything we know so far.
Will Trent Season 3: Renewal Status
Special Agent Will Trent is up for some more investigations as the show has been renewed for season 3. ABC announced the renewal in April 2024. As for when the new season will premiere, viewers will have to wait a little as the series is not a part of ABC’s fall roster. Instead, the new season will be making a midseason debut next year.

To have those shows go uninterrupted just felt like the best way to keep growing them, which is our goal,” said the executive about Will Trent and another ABC series, The Rookie.
