Zoe Saldaña Opens Up About Massive Cliffhanger Ending in Taylor Sheridan’s Lioness Season 3
Zoe Saldaña says the finale turns Aaliyah into the mastermind behind Joe’s abduction and shows Neal leaving with their two children.
The Lioness Season 3 finale, streaming on Paramount+, revealed on Sunday that Aaliyah Amrohi masterminded the kidnapping and torture of CIA operative Joe McNamara, stunning star Zoe Saldaña.
Aaliyah's vendetta stems from Season 1, when Marine Cruz Manuelos killed her father, Asmar Ali Amrohi, and fiancé, Ehsan, transforming her from innocent pawn into a hardened mastermind seeking revenge.
In a personal blow, Joe discovered her husband, Neal, had left with their two children, making good on his threat to leave as her dangerous CIA career consumed their marriage.
Emerging as a "nefarious force," Aaliyah now targets Joe's entire team, including supervisor Kaitlyn Meade and operative Cruz, knowing they will attempt her rescue.
While Paramount+ has not officially greenlit Season 4, it is "just a matter of time," with Saldaña expressing hope these characters are "worth it" for future seasons.
