HBO’s ‘Big Little Lies’ Season 3 is happening

The lie is about to get a whole lot bigger.

Nicole Kidman teased a potential third season of the HBO show “Big Little Lies” during a Q&A session at the CME Group Tour Championship in Naples, Florida.

“It sort of came along at a time in my life when I had my children and I was thinking I was going to retire. And then this situation came along, where Reese Witherspoon and I were able to produce that show and create that show,” Kidman, 56, gushed on Friday. “And then all of you watched it and made it a massive success.”

“I loved ‘Big Little Lies,’” she added. “We will be bringing you a third one, just FYI.”

The Season 2 finale of the show aired in July 2019.

Kidman, who played Celeste, starred alongside Witherspoon (Madeline), Zoe Kravitz (Bonnie), Laura Dern (Renata) and Shailene Woodley (Jane).

While there has been no official comment on whether or not the show will be returning to HBO, the “Moulin Rouge” actress has repeatedly expressed her desire to film another season.

“Everyone’s working. Hopefully we can collide again at one point,” Kidman said in January 2020.

Her sentiment was echoed by HBO CEO Casey Bloys.

“I think the thing with ‘Big Little Lies’ is you have a group of people who all really love working together but obviously they’re some of the most high-profile people working in entertainment,” Bloys said to Deadline in November.

“Reese, Nicole, Zoe, Laura, everybody is so busy. It would be great to get the band back together at some point but right now everybody is so busy and there’s no idea, where we’re all saying ‘that makes perfect sense,’” he explained. “I think it’s more of one of those ‘someday.’”

Executive producer Bruna Papandrea also teased that the production team had been revisiting the series.

“I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately,” Papandrea told the outlet. “I do believe a lot of people feel the way I do, which is to find a way at some point to continue.”

Kravitz, 34, revealed that the cast and crew initially wanted more episodes, but the unexpected death of director and executive producer Jean-Marc Vallée caused the idea to stall.

“I don’t think it is,” the “Fantastic Beasts” actress told GQ in November 2022. “We talked about doing a Season 3 a lot. Unfortunately, Jean-Marc Vallée, our incredible director, passed away this last year.”

“It’s heartbreaking,” she added. “I can’t imagine going on without him. He really was the visionary for that show. Unfortunately, it’s done.”

Vallée, who was known for his work on “Dallas Buyers Club” and Hulu’s “Sharp Objects,” died from a heart attack in December 2021. He was 58.

Kravitz and Kidman’s co-stars would also sign on for another season.

Dern, 56, told Entertainment Tonight that she was “holding out hope” for a third season.

“I mean, we would all love nothing more,” she said in October 2022. “We’re like family, just very lucky. I say, let’s hold out hope. Let’s keep asking. It might just come true.”

Witherspoon would return to Monterey, California, too.

“We’re always talking and texting. But Jean-Marc Vallée’s passing was really hard on us,” the “Legally Blonde” star, 47, told the Hollywood Reporter in September 2022.

“He was our collaborator. He was our friend. He was our brother. So much of that series was born of his imagination and his creativity, so it is hard to imagine a future without him,” she noted at the time. “But there is certainly a deep desire for all of us to connect and create those characters again.”
