The second season gave a lamentable closure to Annie and Joy’s stories. On the other hand, the town of Castle Rock was left to haggle with the aftermath of the occurrences at the Marsten House.

During an interview in 2021, showrunner Dustin Thomason talked about a possible third season and what may happen. Dustin stated, “The plan was always to have an interconnected set of stories and, while every season would be its own launching point, there would be this fabric of Stephen’s multiverse, if you will, that always bubbled beneath it, and a unity to the stories that existed.” He also mentioned, “When we get to Castle Rock Season 3, I hope that there will be a continuation of what we’ve done in and an expansion, and the audience will start to feel that there was a plan from the beginning.”

When Is Castle Rock Season 3 Coming?

Castle Rock Season 3

Castle Rock featured an entire ensemble of powerful performers in the first two seasons. If the season 2 finale was any indication, then we are almost certain of Bill Skarsgard returning as The Kid in Castle Rock season 3. Meanwhile, Lizzy Caplan, who plays Annie Wilkes, would also return in her character. Other actors we expect to see in the third season include Aaron Stanton as Pastor Drew, Mathilde Dehaye as Amity, and Frances Conroy as Mrs. Lacy.

The last two seasons brought actors who have previously worked in other adaptations of King’s works, like Skarsgard, who have played Pennywise in It movie. While Sissy Spacek, whom we saw in the first season, has appeared in Carrie. Tim Robbin, who appeared as Reginald’ Pop’ Merrill, was previously seen in ‘The Shawshank Redemption, which is also based on King’s book. Therefore, there is a chance that Castle Rock Season 3 may also introduce us to some new characters played by the actors we’ve previously seen in shows and movies inspired by Stephen Kings’s works.

How many different Castle Rocks are there out there? 

Castle Rock Season 3

After watching two seasons of Castle Rocks, we know that there are two Henry Deavers, two Castle Rocks, and two separate timelines that we are aware of. But are there any more? Fans of Stephen King’s Dark Tower series know that the author has explored the idea of his own multiverse in it. 

The characters and stories from many novels intertwine and connect with each other. Doors that allowed humans to move between realms were at the center of The Dark Tower series. So, was there a Door in the woods? It kinda makes sense that the Doors of the Dark Tower books should have a place in a show that has been dropping so many references to King’s other works.
