Trollhunters Season 3: Cast, Release Date, and News
Trollhunters Season 3 is a go, but it will be the last.
Netflix and Dreamworks Animation announced its docket for new shows to be released in 2018, and a third season of the animated adventure series from Guillermo del Toro and Rodrigo Blaas is on the list.
We loved Trollhunters Season 2 as much as the first season, which is not much of a surprise given that del Toro and Blaas mapped out the story structure of the first 52 episodes of this season before even beginning production.
