‘Bosch: Legacy’ Trailer Revealed: Everything to Know About the Final Season

Titus Welliver‘s days playing Harry Bosch are coming to an end. Bosch: Legacy, the continuation of Prime Video‘s Bosch, will officially end with Season 3. And now, the streaming service has revealed the action-packed trailer for the show’s final adventure.

Bosch and its spinoff are based on Michael Connelly‘s Harry Bosch novels. The author announced Bosch: Legacy‘s impending end on Instagram on Friday, September 6. With the shuttering of Freevee in 2024, Bosch: Legacy will now be a Prime Video-exclusive series.

Here’s all there is to know about Season 3 and what it means for the upcoming Renée Ballard spinoff.

Season 3 will premiere on Thursday, March 27. It will be a full season drop exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide. There will be 10 episodes.

“As we approach the final season of Bosch: Legacy, we are so proud of what this series has accomplished and while it’s bittersweet to see it come to a close we’re immensely satisfied with the journey,” Vernon Sanders, head of television, Amazon MGM Studios, said on January 28. “We’re grateful to Michael Connelly, Titus Welliver, and the rest of the cast and crew for the captivating stories they have delivered over the years and the series has left an indelible mark on the crime drama genre. This final season promises to deliver more high-stakes drama and intriguing storytelling for our global customers.”

“What an amazing run it has been. I could not have asked for a better cinematic adaptation of my work,” said Connelly, who also executive produces“Led by Titus Welliver and showrunners Eric Overmyer and Tom Bernardo, and a great partnership with Amazon MGM Studios, I think we defined the start of the streaming era with the best detective show ever.”

Bosch first premiered on Prime Video in February 2014. It ran for seven seasons before being transformed into the Legacy spinoff for Freevee in 2022. It’s still Prime Video’s longest-running franchise to date. In an apparent tribute to the show’s legacy on the streaming platform, Bosch: Legacy‘s final season will stream on both Prime Video and Freevee, according to Connelly.

The author also confirmed in September that the Renée Ballard spinoff show is still in production with Maggie Q as the lead. Q will star in the spinoff as Renée Ballard, who will make her debut in Legacy‘s final season (see Welliver and Q in the Season 3 finale in the photo above).

“I’m happy to announce that the third season of Bosch: Legacy will premiere on Prime in March,” Connelly said. “I think it’s our best yet. It will also be the last season, bringing to a fitting close a 10-season run with this character, played so well by Titus Welliver. But fear not, we are currently in production on the Renée Ballard show. And if you know anything about my books, then you know you have not seen the last of Harry Bosch!”

It’s practically a miracle that any show gets to make multiple seasons in this streaming era, so Bosch has certainly had a good run. It seems it may have reached its natural conclusion, given the overall positive message from Connelly, who serves as creator and executive producer on the series.

“It’s been an amazing run with this character so far. There’s that over-used phrase ‘It takes a village,’ so I’ll just say, it takes at least a whole town to make a show like this,” Connelly’s Instagram announcement continued. “We’ve had the best people up and down the call sheet. Actors, writers, directors, producers, and all the crew tried to make something special, and they certainly did. I’m very proud of what we did.”

“None of this would have happened without the first name on the call sheet: Titus Welliver,” he continued. “He became the full embodiment of Harry Bosch and that was the magic that fueled 10 seasons. As the guy who writes the books, I can’t tell you how lucky I got when he signed on. It also would have never happened without the support of Amazon, producers like Henrik Bastin and Pieter Jan Brugge, and showrunners Eric Overmyer and Tom Bernardo. But I have to say, the most important part of this was the avalanche of viewers who supported us from Episode 1 through 98. Many thanks to all of you. If our work has left any message or impression behind, we hope it’s that everybody counts or nobody counts.”

Who is in the Bosch: Legacy Season 3 cast?

Joining Welliver in the final season are returning stars Mimi Rogers, Madison Lintz, Denise Sanchez, Stephen A.

What is Bosch: Legacy Season 3 about?

Bosch: Legacy follows Harry Bosch (Welliver), a retired LAPD homicide detective turned private investigator; Honey “Money” Chandler (Rogers), an attorney who struggles to maintain her faith in the justice system; and Maddie Bosch (Lintz), as she wrestles with the challenges of being a patrol cop on the streets of Los Angeles.

The final season is based on Connelly’s best-selling novels Desert Star (2022) and The Black Ice (1993). The murder investigation of Kurt Dockweiler (David Denman) brings dangerous secrets to light and threatens to ruin the lives of the three principal characters. The disappearance of a family haunts Harry Bosch and forces him to confront the limits of justice. In a hotly contested race, Honey “Money” Chandler is poised to become the next District Attorney of Los Angeles. And Maddie Bosch gets entangled in a series of violent follow-home robberies.
