A PUSH! 'Pose' Gets Renewed For Season 3

The 'Pose' cast is about to push all the way through to a season 3. Renewal deets inside!

 

Telling the stories of the legendary house mothers of New York’s underground ball culture that started back in the 80's, and telling it authentically, has turned the masses on to something fabulous. The movement is getting its due even more now that "Pose" is a hit. Well, a super hit. Just two weeks after its season 2 premiere, FX just gave the greenlight for season 3. Woot!

From telling the real stories of vogue-ing and ballroom in a fictional setting, to the personal stories of the on-screen characters, "Pose" has definitely become the show to watch.  The storylines touch on subjects often skirted by other drama series -  the AIDS epidemic in the 80's and 90's, sex change difficulties and issues directly impacting the LGBTQ+ community.

The show, which was named an AFI TV Program of the Year, has been racking up the accolades since season 1. Two Golden Globe noms, a Peabody Award, a Television Academy Honors Award and more.

The series features the largest cast of transgender actors in series regular & recurring roles ever for a scripted series. Mj Rodriguez, Dominique Jackson, Indya Moore, Hailie Sahar and Angelica Ross, who co-star alongside, Tony winner Billy Porter, Charlayne Woodard, Ryan Jamaal Swain, Dyllón Burnside, Angel Bismark Curiel and Sandra Bernhard round out the cast.

P.S., just before the weekend, Billy Porter dropped a single called “Love Yourself”. It's available now on all streaming platforms and digital retailers.

Deadline reports the second season premiere exceeded the season one average in all key adult demographics, including a 17% increase in Total Viewers (1.21 million vs. 1.04 million).
