All roads lead to Alaska in the new trailer for the third and final season of Sweet Tooth, and it looks like things might get pretty dark for at least part of the upcoming episodes.
“Sweet Tooth showed me you got nothing to live for, until you got something to die for,” Jeppard says in the trailer. I’m sure that means that everything will be fine and nothing that makes you cry will happen.
Here’s the third season’s official synopsis:
Having defeated General Abbot in the battle at Pubba’s Cabin, Gus (Christian Convery), Jepperd (Nonso Anozie), Becky (Stefania LaVie Owen), and Wendy (Naledi Murray) embark on a journey to Alaska in search of Gus’s mother, Birdie (Amy Seimetz), who has been working to uncover the mysterious origins of the deadly Sick. Along the way, they are joined by Dr. Singh (Adeel Akhtar), who may have his own dangerous beliefs about Gus and his role in reversing the virus. Meanwhile, a new threat emerges in the form of Helen Zhang (Rosalind Chao), her daughter Rosie (Kelly Marie Tran), and the ferocious Wolf Boys, who seek to restart human birth and view Gus as the solution to their plans. As they navigate through perilous terrain, Gus and his group of friends find refuge at the Outpost in Alaska, where they meet a new ensemble of characters including Siana (Cara Gee) and her hybrid daughter Nuka (Ayazhan Dalabayeva). With the clock to find answers running out, alliances are tested and destinies intertwine, all leading to a thrilling climax that will determine the fate of humanity and hybrids.
“[It’s] another road trip story like Season One, but in a very different way,” showrunner Jim Mickle told Netflix’s website, Tudum. “Season Three is an Arctic story with exciting new adventures and what we hope will be a satisfying conclusion to this epic tale. Gus is going to see a side of the world and humanity that he didn’t see in Season One or Two.”
Tudum also confirmed that season three will be darker, and Mickle added that “in Season 3, everybody is dealing with some kind of wound or emotional loss, whether that was somebody in their life or a part of themselves. Everybody is looking inward and looking to move on and ultimately learning that life doesn’t stop. You have to keep putting one foot in front of another.”
The third season of Sweet Tooth premieres on Netflix on June 6, 2024, which gives you plenty of time to stock up on tissues.
