Big Little Lies Season 3 Takes Major Step Forward with Francesca Sloane as Writer, Inks HBO Overall Deal
HBO’s highly anticipated third season of Big Little Lies has secured a significant talent, with Francesca Sloane, co-creator and showrunner of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, signing an exclusive two-year overall deal with the premium network. Sloane is set to write the inaugural episode of Season 3, which is currently in active development.
This move marks a crucial progression for the star-studded series, with Sloane also joining as an executive producer alongside series creator David E. Kelley and stars Reese Witherspoon and Nicole Kidman. Her appointment follows an extensive search by HBO this summer for a lead writer for the new installment.
Sloane transitions to HBO from Amazon MGM Studios, where she had been under overall deals since 2020. Her notable work includes co-creating the acclaimed drama Mr. & Mrs. Smith with Donald Glover, for which she also served as executive producer and showrunner. This development signals renewed momentum for Big Little Lies fans, who have eagerly awaited updates since hints of a third season began circulating in late 2023.
