What?! There’s a third and final season of Hilda coming!?
Yes, the hit Netflix animated series based on Luke Pearson’s graphic novels about a young girl and her friends who come up again supernatural freidns and enemies on a regular basis… think Trollhunter meets Harry Potter, it’s really rather great.
Myself and my kids found the series during the madness of covid and it became our lunchtime watch, them homeschooling and me working from home, and it was so much fun and when the movie came out in 2021, we assumed it was the end of the story… until now.
Taking to Twitter, creator Pearson revealed that the third and final season arrives on December 7th on Netflix and I can think of no better Christmas present to myself and my kids to watch over the festive season… kind of apt, given the show’s Scandinavian folklore origins.
Chantal Ling Vice President, Original Series & Co-Productions, Mercury Filmworks. said: “While it is always tough to see the end of a series that has been so professionally gratifying, we are thrilled to showcase the latest epic adventures of our heroine Hilda in this final season at the Ottawa International Animation Festival and for audiences around the world to be entertained when the series premieres on Netflix later this year.”
Happy Christmas, Hilda fans!

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….
