Romantic tension has been building between Molly and her colleague Arthur. But after swearing off men forever, Molly boards her private jet with her chaotic assistant Nicholas in tow, leaving Arthur behind. 

Will the promising couple be able to work it out in series three?

Meanwhile, romance has also been on the cards for Sofia, the business savvy executive director of the Wells Foundation. However, she may have to put her personal life aside to deliver on Molly’s very public promise to spend all of her money on the foundation, which seems like an insurmountable task for the team. 

Thankfully, the upcoming third season will answer the big questions from series 2 and continue to follow the hilarious antics of Molly and her colleagues. 

In a joint statement, Maya and producer Danielle Renfrew Behrens of Banana Split Projects expressed their excitement about the upcoming new season: “We’re extremely fortunate to spend more time with our talented cast and crew. Making this show with Apple TV+ has been a joy, and we can’t wait to reunite with our ‘Loot’ family.” 

“With each season, ‘Loot’ continues to deliver joy, laughs and endearing characters for audiences around the world,” added Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+. 

“We are excited to partner with Maya Rudolph, and the entire cast and creative team behind ‘Loot,’ to create even more heartfelt moments with an ensemble of fan-favourite characters in season three.”

As for when the third series of Loot will premiere, fans may be waiting a while.
