In 2018, the world was introduced to the awkward and misguided adventures of five Irish teenagers growing up in the 90s during the Troubles. Derry Girls was an international hit once it started streaming on Netflix later that year.
It’s been two years since the show ended its second season. Like most productions, coronavirus (COVID-19) pushed back Derry Girls’ season 3 shooting dates. However, multiple cast members have confirmed filming will start later this year.
Since the actors are getting older, it’s unlikely the show will go past the upcoming season. Here’s what the cast and crew of Derry Girls have to say about the show’s future.
Fans won’t have to wait much longer for the show to start filming season 3.
“It’s happening this year, it’s definitely happening this year!” Tara Lynne O’ Neill, who plays Erin’s mom, told the Irish Mirror. “If we leave it another year, we’ll all be old-age pensioners! It will be called ‘Derry Old Ones!’ No, we’re gonna do it this year, so it will be out early next year. We’re tied in for the filming date. We’re shooting this year.”
