Netflix Castlevania Season 3's Release Date Just Got Stealth Dropped on Twitter

In a total stealth drop, Netflix Nordic's official Twitter account just revealed that Castlevania Season 3 is set to launch next week, Dec. 1. I mean,

YESSS!!! I need to finish watching season 2.

 

[ThatStupidLion]

awesome love this series

 

[garballax]

woo hoo! can't wait to see what they do with season 3. would love to see this show go on long enough to cover more of the Belmont bloodline.

 

[Nightrunner]

I saw this tweet making the rounds earlier today. Given that they're almost done with post could very well be true, though it does make me wonder why they're sending it out on Dec 1 without releasing any trailers or even short promos.

 

[Mato]

I loved season 1 but for some reason I can't master the will to watch season 2. I will, eventually.

 

[garballax]

tweet's deleted. somebody must be pissed. lol.

 

[Romulus]

Great series

Common opinion is that Season 2 is BETTER than Season 1, unless you really hate character development. It takes its time but builds to a satisfying climax.

S2 solidified my confidence in the series moving forward. The quality is on an upswing. I DO hope S3 had a slightly higher budget, but we'll have to wait and see.

Cool, I will try to watch it soon. I know I will end up enjoying it.

I get this, and not saying you're wrong, but you might be.

S2 has lots of elements which are probably necessary for a good story, but when the 3 protagonists are underutilized, it's hard to support. Yes you're right, the ending is spectacular. In fact, this scene is probably my favorite scene in anything in recent memory. (spoiler-ish I guess. Sound on is necessary for this scene)


S3 I'll definitely binge, but I hope we get more screen-time for the main characters.

 

[Nightrunner]

Pack it up boys.

 

[Tesseract]

so good, take all the time you need

cannot wait

 

[KOMANI]

Hopefully it’s not an uneven mess that was season 2

Watch it! The first half is kinda meh, but the 2nd half is awesome!

 

[Halo is Back]

Hell yea Netflix just got relevant for me again

 

[Mista]

Looks like Netflix Nordic spilled the beans way early

 

[Potato Chip PRO]

Good shiit... Now I gotta wait for it's release.

 

[Nightrunner]

I didn't see any threads or communities for CV so I decided to drop this here:

 

[Armorian]

First season was like 7/10 (not much was happening and I thought it was too short), but second was 8/10 or even 9/10 in parts. Can't wait.

 

[Benjamin_MFF]

I didn't see any threads or communities for CV so I decided to drop this here:

Okay, I'm in. I'll give it a watch today.

 

[SLoWMoTIoN]

Ho? It is out? How will a dead feminist vampire go (I assume) with Netflix's "target" demographic?

 

[Lanrutcon]

Wait wait I think I missed the fact that there's a second season.

 

[Nightrunner]

This is just promo art for S3. There's no definitive release date rn but apparently they're done mixing the episodes.

 

[plushyp]

Any word on which game they are covering for Season 3? I remember Adi Shanker the producer saying that he has a soft spot for Soma Cruz but I guess it's too early for his storyline to feature.

S3 is either gonna cover Curse of Darkness or serve as a setup for CoD. I think we're not even gonna get to Simon let alone SotN.

 

[KOMANI]

I think season 3 will be Rondo + SOTN.

 

[Nightrunner]

Nah the best we can hope for is for them to wrap up CoD in S3 so that they can do Rondo/SotN afterwards.

You could do all of Curse of Darkness in 3 episodes (unless season 3 has the same pacing as season 2). I think you bring Alucard in for season 3, because like Dracula, he can remain a constant for the series due to his immortality and relationships with his father, the humans, and the Belmonts. Focusing a whole season on Hector and Isaac would be a mistake.

They wasted plenty of time during S2 on those pretentious political scenes and at the Belmont library so I wouldn't put it past them to do it again in S3 since the showrunners are pretty much doing their own thing and now we have Carmilla + her new generals. I don't know if Alucard will be in S3 or not (probably gonna guess he will because of how popular he is) but it's pretty clear they're gonna focus on Hector and Isaac now.

That makes the most sense given how they developed Hector as a reluctant antagonist in Season 2 and him being the protagonist of CoD.

Yeah, those library scenes went on for too long. You wouldnt think there would be filler in an 8 ep season, but there you go. Season 3 is 10 episodes. Although I do think it’s a mistake to make Hector and Isaac the focus, I do trust Warren Ellis to make it work.

edit: i also think it would be odd to focus a season on a game that’s not available on current gen. I’d imagine Konami pushing for stories to focus on games readily available.

 

[The Pleasure]

Does this finishing mean the studio can get back to seis manos? That series is just as good if not slightly better than castlevania.

 

[Mista]

Wait wait I think I missed the fact that there's a second season.

Good evening

 

[garballax]

finally formalized:

 

[plushyp]

I remember him being chained from the end of Season 2 but why is Trevor naked lol

 

[TindalosPup]

You mean Hector?

He's Camilla's Female Superiority meets abusive pet owner- the character pet forgemaster, she'll be all about humiliating him, she beats and berates him when she be-shackles him
