The Morning Show Season 3 is teasing turbulence on the horizon for UBA and its star anchors. The only thing that can save them? A tech giant with a lot of money.
A new trailer for the upcoming third installment makes it clear that tensions are already high, even before the network falls victim to a cyber attack. But once that happens, there’s nothing they can do to stop some unfavorable information coming to light.
Some, like Jennifer Aniston’s Alex Levy, are ready to let the secrets come out. But others, not so much. Either way, it seems the cyber attack is going to torpedo the company toward financial ruin, unless they can find a new investor.
As Billy Crudup’s Cory Ellison puts it, they’ll need “someone with more money than God” to dig them out of that hole. Enter tech titan Paul Marks (Jon Hamm), who is ready to acquire the network, though it doesn’t seem like it’ll come easy.
Watch the full trailer above.
Season 3 of The Morning Show premieres September 13 with the first two episodes, followed by new episodes every Wednesday through November 8.
According to the official logline, in Season 3, “the future of the network is thrown into question and loyalties are pushed to the brink when a tech titan takes an interest in UBA. Unexpected alliances form, private truths are weaponized, and everyone is forced to confront their core values both in and out of the newsroom.”
