Atlanta Season 3 Is A Black Fairytale, Says Donald Glover
Atlanta star and co-creator Donald Glover says season 3 is a Black fairytale. When viewers caught up with the acclaimed FX series, which last aired a new episode in May 2018, Earn (Glover) and his cousin Alfred (Brian Tyree Henry), known as the rapper Paper Boi, were ready to board a plane and begin a European tour. And as the long-awaited Atlanta season 3, the duo will be learning to navigate new surroundings alongside Darius (LaKeith Stanfield) and Van (Zazie Beetz).
Atlanta season 3 trailers have previewed Paper Boi’s wild European tour. Other teasers for the series have offered a distinctly eerie vibe, alternating between dreamy and nightmarish. It’s a tone familiar to fans of Atlanta, as the show routinely veers from its ostensible main plot about the rap world to tell memorable side stories and offer distinct standalone episodes. Promoting the arrival of Atlanta season 3, which will make its FX debut on March 24 with two episodes, Glover promised more of what has made his show such a roaring success.
