Created by Peter Nowalk and produced by Shonda Rhimes, How to Get Away with Murder Season 3 has 15 episodes and each episode will be aired every Thursday night at 10.00pm ET/PT.

 

Award-winning actress, Viola Davis reprises her lead role as Annalise Keating, criminal defense attorney and law professor at Middleton University whose cheating husband Sam and his mistress Lila, were murdered in the first season.

 

Also returning with Keating are the five students she hired as interns in her law firm: Wesley Gibbons (Alfred Enoch), Michaela Pratt (Aja Naomi King), Asher Millstone (Matt McGorry), Connor Walsh (Jack Falahee) and the idealistic Laurel Castillo (Karla Souza). The third season cast also includes Oliver Hampton as Conrad Ricamora, Walsh’s partner who doubles as a computer technician and hacker, Charlie Weber as Frank Delfino, Keating’s special employee, among others.

 

Davis shared a promotional poster of the third season last month on Facebook with the caption “Are you all caught up yet? #HTGAWM Season 3 premieres on Thursday, Sept 22nd at 10PM! #AnnaliseKeating #TGIT”.

It is projected to gross over $100 million in its debut weekend and eventually one of the highest grossing films of 2016 despite negative reviews. However, some box office analysts like Forbes‘ Scott Mendelson believe that the movie does not have to earn big worldwide to be considered a success. In Mendelson’s opinion Suicide Squad “which isn’t exactly cheap (at least $175m), could gross less than Batman v Superman and still be considered a ‘bigger’ success.”
