‘The Umbrella Academy’ Season 3 Announces June Premiere Date With First Look

A showdown is coming to Netflix this June with the premiere of The Umbrella Academy Season 3. But when is the new season of the hit series dropping? Finally, we know the answer to that question: The Umbrella Academy Season 3 premieres June 22, 2022, as just revealed at the show’s South by Southwest (SXSW) panel. Can I state that same info five more ways? Sure, but I’m not going to, you already got the info you needed.

In the brief tease released, we can see the follow-up to the cliffhanger from Season 2, as the members of the Umbrella Academy — now, finally back in their correct time period — are in some sort of an alternate timeline, facing down with their evil (?) opposites: the Sparrow Academy.

Here’s the official synopsis for Season 3, which states it a little more expansively than that last paragraph did:

After putting a stop to 1963’s doomsday, the Umbrella Academy return home to the present, convinced they prevented the initial apocalypse and fixed this godforsaken timeline once and for all. But after a brief moment of celebration, they realize things aren’t exactly (okay, not at all) how they left them. Enter the Sparrow Academy. Smart, stylish, and about as warm as a sea of icebergs, the Sparrows immediately clash with the Umbrellas in a violent face-off that turns out to be the least of everyone’s concerns. Navigating challenges, losses, and surprises of their own – and dealing with an unidentified destructive entity wreaking havoc in the Universe (something they may have caused) — now all they need to do is convince Dad’s new and possibly better family to help them put right what their arrival made wrong. Will they find a way back to their pre-apocalyptic lives? Or is this new world about to reveal more than just a hiccup in the timeline?

Created for TV and showrun by Steve Blackman, based on the comics by Gerard Way and Gabriel Bá, Umbrella Academy Season 3 stars Elliot Page, Tom Hopper, David Castañeda, Emmy Raver-Lampan, Robert Sheehan, Aidan Gallagher, Justin H. Min, Colm Feore, Ritu Arya, Justin Cornwell, Britne Oldford, Jake Epstein, Genesis Rodriguez, Cazzie David, and Javon ‘Wanna’ Walton.

Here’s a look at the two teams facing down… Will they team up to take on this mysterious greater threat that may have something to do with the ominously named Hotel Oblivion? Or will it lead to yet another global apocalypse? Stay tuned when all episodes drop on Netflix on June 22:
