Zazie Beetz is a beautiful woman
Stunning
It’s been nearly four long years since the incredible Atlanta: Robbin’ Season, but we’re one step closer the premiere of the FX series’ third season. While attending the SXSW Festival, the cast of Atlanta talked to Variety about what lies ahead this season for Earn (Donald Glover), his cousin Paper Boi (Brian Tyree Henry), Darius (LaKeith Stanfield), and Van (Zazie Beetz) as they venture to Europe for Paper Boi’s tour.
“It’s a very honest season,” said Beetz. “All of the characters are out of their element, which allows things to rise to the surface that you would otherwise be able to, in habits and in comfort, suppress. And here, you can’t, because you have nothing to catch you. It’s a lot of truth and reflections of where we’re all at as ourselves and as people—as me, as Zazie.”
From the trailer we got, that ‘fish out of water’ sensation seems fitting as the crew leaves the show’s titular Atlanta, Georgia setting for the new arena of Europe. Yet, the spirit of Atlanta “is everywhere and nowhere,” commented Stephen Glover, Donald Glover’s brother who writes and produces for the acclaimed series.
When will Atlanta, the place, make its return to the series? Well, Donald Glover assured everyone that the city will have a “heavy resurgence” coming into the fourth (and final) season which releases this fall.
“Atlanta is a state of mind. Europe solidified how we felt [while writing] Season 3. [Director Hiro Murai] calls it our maximum season,” said Donald Glover.
Glover went even more in-depth about how, for season three, the cast and crew wanted to go beyond what they’ve done previously. “We just wanted to make a Black fairytale,” Glover stated. “I remember sitting in the writers’ room and being like, ‘What do we write about?’ We just wanted to do short stories. Something I would want to watch.”
From napkin-covered heads at dinner parties to moped rides, the trailer gives hints as to how the short story format will work to showcase the Atlanta crew’s mixture of oddly hilarious and off-putting occurrences while in Europe. Thankfully, it seems that the terrifying Teddy Perkins will decide to stay in Atlanta this time around.
The third season of Atlanta premieres March 24 on FX, with next day streaming available on Hulu.

We waited 3 yrs for that......boooo
I watch both.. and both should get Emmys
that second episode was some of the funniest shit I have ever seen
Wasn't quite worth the wait, as neither episode was all that funny, but I did appreciate the social commentary on the first episode back. I'm surprised the alphabet people haven't gotten on Donald Glover's ass for his take on the story of the Hart family and what those janky ass "woke" white lesbians did to those kids. And that scary story about Lake Lanier was definitely this show's Watchmen/Lovecraft Country moment. It's amazing how little the masses of Americans know about the Black Wall Street race massacre and the creation of Lake Lanier that they that these real-life horror stories of black Americans just sprung from the minds of some Hollywood writers' room.
They did Pac dirtyTupac
Note how when child protection service was called on the black family the social worker showed up with cops...when they were called on the white lesbians the social worker showed up alone. And even she had her guard down and went deeper into the the house to talk with the bulldyke chick.
Just shows how accepting we all are whiteness and how harmless we think it is.

its goes deeper
in some areas cps department policy requires police for some demos
simultaneously banning police for others
Didn't know that actually happened. Watched that part in particular a few times and made my 14 year old watch it too. This generation is missing a serious beat.
Sometimes when I watch Atlanta it feels like I'm watching a great surreal or A24 movie.
Writers Jamal Olori, Stephen Glover Stefani Robinson, and Donald Glover have crafted a show with dark humor and sight gags but also sobering messages about racism and the obliviousness that comes with it. Also infusing real life tragedies while holding up a mirror to the incompetence of the Child Protective Services. The opening episodes of season 3 have been hard hitting with its own quirkiness and shock around its edges but in the end all rings true.
