DICKINSON: Apple TV+ Sets Final Season Premiere Date

DICKINSON’s third—and final—season will kick off on Friday, November 5, Apple TV+ announced. The first three episodes of the Hailee Steinfeld-led series will debut at once, with new episodes dropping every week through December 24.

“When I set out to make DICKINSON, I envisioned the show as a three-season journey that would tell the origin story of America’s greatest female poet in a whole new way, highlighting Emily’s relevance and resonance to our society today,” said Alena Smith in a statement. “In my wildest dreams, I could never have imagined how rich and satisfying the experience of making this show would become, and the incredible joy it has been to tell Emily’s story along with Hailee and our brilliant, passionate cast and crew.”

“I can’t wait to share our epic final season with the world, and to bring our audience along with us to the conclusion of Emily’s coming-of-age saga, as she continues to fight for her own poetic truth, while reckoning with so many of the issues that face us now,” she continued. “Thank you to Hailee Steinfeld and our entire Dickinson team for making this such an unforgettable creative journey. I’m grateful for my partnership with Apple and can’t wait to continue telling more original stories with them in the years ahead.”

According to Apple TV+, “in the third season, Emily Dickinson’s most productive time as an artist falls amid the raging American Civil War and an equally fierce battle that divides her own family. As Emily tries to heal the divides around her, she wonders if art can help keep hope alive, and whether the future can be better than the past.” The series also stars Toby Huss, Adrian Blake Enscoe, Anna Baryshnikov, Ella Hunt, Amanda Warren, Chinaza Uche, Jane Krakowski, and Wiz Khalifa. New guest stars in the final season include Ziwe as Sojourner Truth, who also joined as a writer; Billy Eichner as Walt Whitman; and Chloe Fineman as Sylvia Plath. Zosia Mamet will return as Louisa May Alcott, as will Will Pullen as Nobody.
