What’s in store for Pose? Recently, Star Indya Moore and co-creator Steven Canals recently spoke with Variety about the changes coming to season three of the FX TV show.
The drama series revolves around several segments of society in New York City — ball subculture, Trump-era excess, and the downtown social and literary scenes. The second season kicks off in 1990. The cast includes Moore, Mj Rodriguez, Dominique Jackson, Hailie Sahar, Angelica Ross, Billy Porter, Ryan Jamaal Swain, Angel Bismark Curiel, Dyllón Burnside, Sandra Bernhard, and Charlayne Woodard.
In the interview, Moore revealed the cast of Pose is going through challenging times and are uncomfortable with returning to set too soon:
The ‘Pose’ family is hanging in there, trying to take care of ourselves — some of us trying to find different ways to stay busy, some of us, like myself, trying to find different ways not to be. [They are] feeling a little bit paranoid about returning to set too soon and frightened about what we will return to.”
Co-creator Steven Canals says season three of the FX series will have to accommodate to deal with the pandemic and that means less intimacy:
Things like kissing — we will likely forgo those moments. The place on our show where the biggest impact will be felt will be the ball scenes: Those scenes have 125 to 150 background actors. That’s tricky, because that’s such an important and critical part of our show and the narrative. We’re just, only now, having conversations of ‘Is there a world where we forgo these things?’”
And what can fans expect from season three? Canals says:
The politics of ‘Pose’ have always been upfront and center, so in terms of the narrative of Season 3 and the way we’re moving forward, I think it will inherently address what’s happening currently with COVID-19. All of that was already baked into the DNA of the show.”
What do you think? Do you watch Pose? Are you looking forward to season three of this FX series?
I am ECSTATIC to hear that season 3 is coming!!! I had read after the end of season 2 that there was no plan for a 3rd season. So I say take your time, stay safe & put out a “Pose worthy” season 3. Those of us TRUE fans & those of us with common sense who are living through the pandemic understand that we ALL are having to figure out how we’re going to get back to our lives & back to work. We’ve been waiting THIS long for season 3, it won’t kill us if we have to… Read more »
I love, love this show. As much as I want to see the show, I rather the actors stay safe.
The show must go on. Make it work keep it clean and safe you are my world
I love pose and it would be very devastating if the most important sene would be ex out the smallest things make the show and I myself would not want to lose interest in a show i love to see on air. This show speaks the truth about whats going on in the LGBTQ community and to people trying to find their selfs. But can not wait to see season three.
Pose is hands down my favorite show on TV right now. I can’t wait to see what they have in store for us this season!
Been waiting patiently. Any idea when we start again
I love the show Pose. I have been watching from the beginning and can’t wait for season 3.
Looking forward to Season 3.
I LOVE this wonderful written show! The cast is splendid and masterfully! Keep standing and bringing those issues to the forefront!!!! This is one this best shows ever on TV!!!!
I absolutely can’t wait for season 3. I admire everyone involved in the production of this show. Hats off to creating something really special. Please keep us in the loop
Love this show
I just hope that they don’t destroy the authentic feel of the show. The episode about Candy’s death made me a fan of the show.
Incredible show. Much joy and much sadness. Love the realness of it!!!
ARE YOU KIDDING? I’ve be waiting for season three since the end of season two. LOVE POSE and all of the actor/actresses on the show.
I cannot wait for Season 3! I love this show … tastefully done, actors are fantastic, realistic, inspiring … just plain great show. I watched the very first episode expecting to be totally turned off by a sleazy “soap opera.” Wow, was I wrong. When does Season 3 begin?
I really enjoy the show. I would not enjoy watching the show at the risk of any of the performers life.
