‘Hacks’: Deborah & Ava Reunite in Trailer, Plus Everything We Know About Season 3
Hacks is almost back and in anticipation of the Emmy-winning comedy show’s return to Max, the streamer is unveiling an all-new Season 3 trailer teasing the reunion between Jean Smart‘s comic Deborah Vance and the colleague she dismissed at the end of Season 2, Ava (Hannah Einbinder).
But in case you’re not caught up on all of the latest information tied to the upcoming season, we’re breaking it all down, below.
What Is Hacks Season 3 About?
Per the season’s logline, Hacks Season 3 will begin a year after the events of Season 2’s finale, with Deborah experiencing major success for her standup special, while Ava goes after new opportunities in Los Angeles. But as the trailer teases, above, a separation between these women can only last so long until it’s time for a reunion, whether Ava is ready for such a thing.
Initially hesitant about coming face-to-face with Deborah, the young writer Ava struggles to cope with the concept until she and Deborah are actually forced together when they share an elevator ride. How will their dynamic change? Only time will tell but the trailer has a lot to offer fans hungry for the show’s return.
