Here’s all the The Mosquito Coast Season 3 release date information we know so far, and all the details on when it is coming out.
Is there a The Mosquito Coast Season 3 release date?
There is no The Mosquito Coast Season 3 release date as the series was canceled after two seasons.
In January 2023, Apple canceled The Mosquito Coast after two seasons. Prior to the official cancellation, author Paul Theroux spoke to Deadline about where the narrative would have gone in season 3. The second season ends with Allie’s apparent death when he detonates a bomb and kills many of his pursuers. This gives his family the chance to get away.
“And the Margot character is strong enough to fulfill his vision even if he didn’t survive. I had always thought of a sequel for the book. Allie dies at the end of the novel, and in the movie too,” Paul Theroux said. “But in my fantasy sequel novel, the children would take over and the story would be narrated by his son, Charlie. He would take the place of his father. I thought I would let some time pass and I never got around to it. But I never imagined that the mother would have the mojo to do it. Melissa George is a fantastic actress, and her character has the determination, the intelligence, and the strength to carry it through. Her most compelling feature is her resistance against Allie when she knows he’s going wrong.”
The cast includes Justin Theroux as Allie Fox, Melissa George as Margot Fox, Logan Polish as Dina Fox, Gabriel Bateman as Charlie Fox, Ian Hart as William “Bill” Lee, Ariyon Bakare as Richard Beaumont, Natalia Cordova-Buckley as Isela, Daniel Raymont as Guillermo Bautista, and more.
