No one does good like the crew of bad guys at the center of Leverage: Redemption. But how long can they continue to do what they do the way they are?

Over two years since they wrapped up business with Arthur Wilde in Season 2, the Scheme Team is finally back to tip the scales in favor of the little guys in the official trailer for Leverage: Redemption Season 3. Prime Video welcomes back the crew on April 17 with a ten-episode run that pits them against some of their greatest challenges yet, from greedy power brokers to corrupt mayors who are the law, and wealthy industrialists exploiting child labor for ill-gotten gains. Throughout it all, they'll be hounded by an old foe hell-bent on vengeance and reckon with their relationships. The first footage from the upcoming season assures there will be higher stakes, bigger cons, and more drama as they court danger with each job.

The con is back on when Leverage: Redemption Season 3 arrives next month, and it appears the team will have their hands full with international escapades, the return of at least one nemesis, and a possible exit.

Season 3 of the caper drama (which previously streamed on Freevee) will premiere Thursday, April 17, with the first three episodes of 10, followed by weekly drops. And in the first trailer above, Parker (played by Beth Riesgraf) has a potentially deadly reunion with arch nemesis Astrid (Alexandra Park).

Leverage and its revival series Leverage: Redemption remains one of the most underrated crime drama television series in the genre. The premise of the original Leverage series sees an unlikely group of vigilante thieves led by a burned-out insurance investigator, Nate Ford, who uses cons to defraud rich targets, normally corporations. Leverage: Redemption sees the team reunite after Nate's death and take up the con again with two new team members added to the original team.

Leverage: Redemption is a charming series. The humor is witty, and the show is unafraid to be quirky. The intelligence of the series can be found in the complex cons and fantastic story pacing. The viewers are as surprised as the target when the con concludes in an undeniably dramatic fashion. Season 3 of Leverage: Redemption debuts on Prime on April 17th.

It’s been a wait for Leverage: Redemption season 3. The second season wrapped in early 2023, and a third season was ordered in December of that year. Like many shows, the series was put off by the 2023 Hollywood strikes and the schedules of its cast.

But it’s finally coming as TV Line has revealed that Leverage: Redemption season 3 will drop the first three of its 10 episodes on Thursday, April 17. New episodes premiere each Thursday after that.

The original Leverage ran on TNT from 2008 to 2012.

Per the latest scoop from Matt’s Inside Line via TVLine, a premiere date for the installment has not been confirmed, but we can hope for a spring 2025 release on Prime Video.

TV and film veteran Noah Wyle is no stranger to starring in fan-favorite big and small screen staples, having first skyrocketed to prominence in 1994 when he appeared alongside Hollywood great George Clooney in the medical drama classic ERas Dr. John Carter, a role he steadily played for eleven seasons and nabbed him numerous Golden Globe and Emmy nominations. Wyle has since gone on to star in popular shows like Falling Skies, The Librarians, and Leverage: Redemption, as well as in films like Donnie Darko, Enough, W., and Shot.

In 2025, Wyle once again embraced the medical genre and began portraying the brilliant senior attending Dr. Michael "Robby" Rabinavitch in The Pitt, who oversees a team of ambitious interns and students in the emergency room at the fictional Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Hospital. The riveting series has been lauded for its refreshingly realistic depiction of what it's truly like working in both the ER and a hospital,...

The following contains major spoilers from The Pitt Season 1, Episode 4, "10:00 A.M.," now streaming on Max. It also contains discussion of sensitive medical topics.

The Pitt Season 1, Episode 4, "10:00 A.M." is the Max drama's most cohesive hour yet. Perhaps that's because it's written by the show's star, Noah Wyle. The script provides the clearest look into Wyle's character Dr. Michael "Robby" Rabinovitch that viewers have had yet, and it takes on a myriad of often uncomfortable medical issues. This is the kind of tense, emotional material that this show has always aspired to.

"10:00 A.M." is framed by the story of Robby's elderly patient Mr. Spencer, who's nearing the end of his life. Helping Mr.

Noah Wyle is making his way back to the emergency room 15 years after starring in the award-winning ER as Dr. John Carter. This time around, Wyle will lead HBO's The Pitt as Dr. Michael "Robby" Robinavitch, the chief attendant of the Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Hospital's emergency room.

According to its logline, the medical drama will offer "a realistic examination of the challenges facing healthcare workers in today's America as seen through the lens of the frontline heroes." HBO has dropped a trailer for The Pitt, and it outlines a frenetic and emotional shift for Wyle's Dr. Robby. Watch him and the rest of The Pitt's staff contend with a waiting room packed with medical emergencies below.

Update, 3:15 Pm (Statement from Hutton and Electric Entertainment added) Leverage producers Electric Entertainment and Timothy Hutton have ended their over two year long breach of contract legal dogfight.

Scheduled to go to trial on February 10 next year over the Oscar winner being booted from the 2021 reboot of the TNT crime drama because of sexual assault allegations, the parties have reached a settlement, a December 2 filing by Hutton’s Kinsella Holley Iser Kump Steinsapir lawyers in LA Superior Court states.

The confidential settlement still has to be approved by a Santa Monica Courthouse Judge Jay Ford III on March 3, 2025 to formally end the suit and countersuit.

If there are “satisfactory completion of specified terms” over the next “45 days,” a “request for dismissal” will be filed on January 15 for the judge signs off on the overall deal.

Timothy Hutton and Leverage: Redemption producer Electric Entertainment have settled a legal battle over his dismissal from the reboot after he was accused of sexual assault.

Lawyers for Hutton on Monday informed the court of the deal, which resolves claims from the actor and counterclaims from Electric. The agreement is conditioned on the completion of certain undisclosed terms within 45 days. Further details weren’t revealed.

Hutton alleged in a lawsuit filed in 2022 that his deal to star, executive produce and direct at least one episode of Leverage: Redemption included a provision that guaranteed him at least $3 million “regardless of whether Electric actually utilized his services in the production of the series.” He said the deal closed in February 2020, a month before reports surfaced that a woman had filed a complaint to the Vancouver police department alleging Hutton raped her in 1983 when she was 14.

Hutton, who was subsequently dropped from the series,...

Louisiana lawmakers saved the state’s tax credit as part of a sweeping set of fiscal reform bills that are headed the governor’s desk coming out of a special legislative session.

The increasingly popular credit had been abolished by the House along with a wide range of other incentives to make up lost revenue from Gov. Jeff Landry’s push to slash corporate tax and personal income tax in the state. But the film and television incentive was reinstated by a Senate committee earlier this week. The annual cap was lowered to $125 million from $150 million but local film industry players were still pretty thrilled that it emerged relatively intact.

The amount set aside for residual claims lowered to $125 million, down from $180 million. The bills passed the full Senate and worked through the House today without further cuts.

Leverage: Redemption star Aldis Hodge clarifies his return as Alec Hardison in season 3. After a bit of an absence from audiences, with the most recent episode of the crime drama revival airing in January 2023, Leverage: Redemption season 3 is set to debut on Prime Video in 2025 after moving from Amazon's ad-supported Freevee streaming service. Although the primary cast is all expected to return for the upcoming installment, there have been questions about how much Hodge will be involved.

In recent comments to TVLine, Hodge clarified that even though he will reprise the role of Hardison, viewers might not get to see too much of the skilled hacker. Hodge has been making the rounds, promoting his new Prime Video show Cross, which is based on the James Patterson novels, and he says that he will not be appearing too much in Leverage: Redemption season because of his work on Cross season 2:...

The con is still on — at least a teeny-tiny bit? — for Aldis Hodge.

Hodge, who currently can be seen headlining Prime Video’s Alex Cross series, of course starred in all five seasons of TNT’s Leverage, as “The Hacker” aka Alec Hardison.

New to Prime Video on November 14, 2024, Cross is the latest adaptation based on the James Patterson fictional detective. The dramatic crime series concerns the investigative exploits of Alex Cross (Aldis Hodge), a skilled forensic expert and criminal psychologist who delves into the twisted minds of those he apprehends to understand their violent behavior.

Denzel Washington and Tyler Perry famously portrayed the character in the panned movies Kiss the Girls, Along Came a Spider, and Alex Cross, allowing Aldis Hodge to repair the character's reputation in the new TV adaptation. Those tuning into Prime Video to see how faithfully the show adapts Patterson's popular source novels will recognize the talented supporting cast from several recent movies and TV shows. Here's the cast and characters featured in Cross.

The following contains light spoilers for Cross Season 1, which premieres Thursday, Nov. 14 on Prime Video. It also contains discussion of violence.

Prime Video's Cross is the worthy successor to Amazon's epic adaptation of Bosch. It's another gritty, intense detective series based on a hit collection of books, with an absolutely perfect choice for the lead role. Aldis Hodge, beloved for Leverage and who was terribly underrated in City on a Hill, is unquestionably front and center in this series. And almost immediately, he makes Detective Alex Cross his own.

Cross is based on the characters from author James Patterson's Alex Cross novels, but it's not a direct adaptation of any book. Instead, executive producer Ben Watkins (who created Hand of God for Amazon) goes his own direction; sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn't. But inspired casting throughout and Watkins' commitment to thoroughly developing every single character make Cross...

Louisiana’s increasingly popular state tax credit for film and television production might be at risk as legislators at a special session are considering the repeal of a wide range of incentives.

The credit – with a base of 25% that can run as high as 40% — is capped at $150 million annually (with up to $30 million more for credits unclaimed the previous year).

It’s been attracting productions and Louisiana regularly comes up among the list of states filmmakers look at. Over the past decade, it has hosted over 700 motion pictures, TV series and documentaries from Interview with the Vampire and National Treasure to Nickel Boys, Leverage: Redemption, The Iron Claw and Where the Crawdads Sing.

The fight, as always, centers around whether the film tax incentive brings in more than it costs the state, which has reported a budget shortfall.

The popular revival series Leverage: Redemption is returning for a third season, but big changes are coming on the horizon for the show's new episodes. Coming as a continuation of Leverage, which aired its final episode in 2012, Redemption follows Nate Ford's widow, Sophie Devereaux, as she reunites his original crew to continue their crusade against corporate greed and government malfeasance. Like its predecessor, Leverage: Redemption takes the procedural format and turns it on its ear with clever plots that serve up weekly doses of satisfying social justice.

The first two seasons of the continuation were met with rave reviews, and it's clear that the team behind Leverage hasn't missed a step, even after a decade. Dean Devlin returned to once again serve as executive producer, and series creators John Rogers and Chris Downey also returned. This gives the revival series a sense of continuity with its predecessor and has...

This article discusses sexual assault and rape allegations.

TNT's Leverage follows a group of criminals who have banded together to use their skills to help people. Together, they take down rich, powerful and corrupt targets who would otherwise be untouchable, bringing justice to the people they hurt. Featuring exciting heists and cons, the series has a surprisingly lighthearted tone that balances humor and serious themes.

Timothy Hutton portrays the group's mastermind and leader, Nathan Ford. Nate has issues with alcohol misuse, which began after his son was denied life-saving medical care by the very insurance company for which he worked, resulting in his son's death. When approached by a businessman claiming his proprietary airplane designs were stolen by a rival, Nate is tasked to gather a team of criminals to steal them back. With Nate in charge, they discover magic working together and get a taste of doing good and helping people.

NBC’s new medical procedural arrives with an unusual slant. Inspired by the life of late British neurologist and author Dr. Oliver Sacks, “Brilliant Minds” stars “Star Trek” and “American Horror Story’s” Zachary Quinto as a doctor determined to demystify neurological disorders. And he’s got first-hand experience: Quinto’s Dr. Oliver Wolf has prosopagnosia, also known as “face blindness” (just as Sacks did in real life.)

The hour-long series “follows a revolutionary, larger-than-life neurologist and his team of interns as they explore the last great frontier – the human mind – while grappling with their own relationships and mental health.”

Alongside Quinto, “Brilliant Minds” also stars Tamberla Perry Ashleigh Lathrop (“The Handmaid’s Tale”), Alex MacNicoll (“The Society”), Aury Krebs (“Leverage: Redemption”), Spence Moore II (“All American”), Teddy Sears (“The Flash”) and Donna Murphy (“Tangled”). “Homeland” and “Criminal Minds” star Mandy Patinkin is also on board in a recurring role.

The highly-anticipated series Cross is set to debut later this year on Prime Video, and will be the latest adaptation that looks to bring author James Pattersons beloved character of Alex Cross to life. Unlike the previous theatrical movies that took their cues from Pattersons novels, however, this new iteration of the famed detective/forensic psychologist will break from tradition to tell its own story, something that the author told Entertainment Weekly he prefers.

"Its something I say when anybody is developing one of my books or characters: I much prefer the story be brand new. I was hoping the show would be a breakthrough and not dependent on the book, and its happened."

Starring Aldis Hodge, Cross sees the titular hero and his partner, John Sampson (Isaiah Mustafa), team up to track a serial killer from Cross past who looks to tear apart his present. Having already appeared in a number of crime dramas,...

The Librarians, which started as a series of three TV movies starring Noah Wyle for TNT in 2004, is heading home, twenty years later.

Earlier this morning, it emerged that The Librarians: The Next Chapter, a spinoff to the series that ran for four seasons through 2018, would air on TNT, rather than The CW, which originally greenlit the show around May 2023.

Deadline can reveal that the show has also been handed a two-season order, which includes a first season of 12 episodes that has already been shot and is currently in post-production, as well as a second season. The first season will premiere in 2025.

Fans of Leverage: Redemption are hoping to hear more about Season 3. Here's an update on when the show will return!

Leverage was a great hit for TNT when it debuted in 2008. The plotline was Nate Ford (Timothy Hutton), a former insurance fraud investigator, bands with a pack of crooks: grifter Sophie (Gina Bellman), thief Parker (Beth Reisgraf), "hitter" Eliot (Christian Kane) and hacker Hardison (Aldis Hodge). The group pulls con games and thefts to bring down the rich and corrupt and give the proceeds to the victims of such crooks. 

The show ran five seasons, ending in 2012. In 2021, Freevee revived it as Leverage: Redemption. The plotline was Nate had died and the rest of the team reunited with Noah Wyle as Harry, a former corporate lawyer who had seen the light to help them out. Hodge's movie career meant Hardison was mostly absent with Aleyse Shannon joining as new hacker Brenna.
