Twisted Metal returns! Season three officially greenlit

November 19th, 2025 by Marc Comments

Good news tonight as it’s officially announced that Twisted Metal has been given a third season at Peacock.

The crazy post-apocalypse road war series, based on the video game of the same name, stars Anthony Mackie, Stephanie Beatriz, Joe Seanoa, and Will Arnett and is a crazy amount of fun, so this is very welcome news, indeed.

However, in the announcement, we also learn that season one and two showrunner Michael Jonathan Smith will be departing, replaced by David Reed.

The third season will pick up after the crazy Twisted Metal tournament, which was hosted by a supernatural entity called Calypso, played with all the sinister weirdness you could ever want by Anthony Carrigan.

No word on what the story will be or when we might see it, but I’ll keep you up-to-date with the details as they emerge.

Have you watched the first two seasons? What did you think? I wanna know all your thoughts, guys…

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
