Leverage: Redemption season 3 is officially a go!
And buried down at the bottom of the release? John Rogers, the showrunner for the entire original series, is going to be showrunning this season!
Kate Rorick is still going to be working on the show, but it sounds like she and Rogers are swapping roles, from showrunner to consulting producer. Rorick was a major part of the writer's room on the original series and I was so relieved when it was announced she was showrunning Redemption, because that meant someone who really got it was going to be in the driver's seat. I credit her with keeping the show as good as it's been, and giving us some amazing new characters!
No news of what's behind the change, but given how long it took to greenlight, I'm guessing there was a scheduling component. Rorick not only writes and executive produces TV, but she's a novelist under her own name and pen name Kate Noble, so she's got a LOT going on.
That said, I follow Rogers on Blue Sky and Twitter and he has so much seething rage built up about billionaires, corporate malfeasance, and other modern bullshit that I think season 3 is going to be EPIC.

Welcome, dear readers, to a world where Jane Austen's beloved classic, "Pride and Prejudice," is reimagined and infused with a delightful twist. Today, we embark on a journey to explore some of the most entertaining and engaging retellings of this timeless tale. So, grab a cup of tea, settle into your favorite reading nook, and prepare to be thoroughly entertained!
"Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" by Seth Grahame-Smith:
Yes, you read it correctly! This retelling adds a thrilling dose of the undead to the mix. Watch as the Bennett sisters navigate the treacherous world of Regency-era England, fighting not only societal expectations but also hordes of brain-craving zombies. It's a hilarious blend of romance, humor, and the undead that will leave you in stitches.
"Eligible" by Curtis Sittenfeld:
Prepare to be transported to modern-day Cincinnati in this contemporary retelling of "Pride and Prejudice." Sittenfeld brings the Bennett family into the 21st century, complete with reality TV shows, CrossFit enthusiasts, and even a Chipotle addiction. You'll find yourself rooting for Liz and Jane as they navigate the challenges of career, love, and family dynamics in a relatable and humorous setting.
"Bridget Jones's Diary" by Helen Fielding:
While not a direct retelling, this modern classic draws heavily from the themes and structure of "Pride and Prejudice." Follow the lovably imperfect Bridget Jones as she embarks on a journey of self-discovery, romantic mishaps, and hilarious diary entries. Filled with witty banter, endearing characters, and unforgettable moments, it's impossible not to fall in love with Bridget's endearing charm.
"Longbourn" by Jo Baker:
Ever wondered what life was like for the servants in the Bennett household? "Longbourn" takes us belowstairs, offering a fresh perspective on the events of "Pride and Prejudice." Delve into the lives of the hardworking servants, their triumphs and struggles, and the complexities of their relationships. Jo Baker beautifully weaves their stories alongside the familiar events of Austen's masterpiece.
"The Lizzie Bennet Diaries" by Kate Rorick and Bernie Su:
For those who prefer a multimedia experience, this retelling comes in the form of a web series. Adapted from a popular YouTube series, "The Lizzie Bennet Diaries" presents the story through video blog entries by modern-day Lizzie Bennet. Follow Lizzie's witty and endearing journey as she navigates love, family drama, and her own prejudices in the age of social media.
From battling zombies to modern-day mishaps, these books offer a variety of engaging experiences that pay homage to Jane Austen's timeless classic. So, why not embark on a journey of laughter, romance, and delightful surprises? Pick up one (or all!) of these books and let yourself be transported into a world where wit and charm abound. Happy reading!

Kate Rorick, writer of Cloak and Dagger, Leverage Redemption and The Librarians, engaging in trolling Benedict by mocking his role in The Hobbit, which is spammed under his name at least 100x a day, in an attempt to mock him. Pretty fucking disgusting someone this high profile would try it. I was a huge fan of the show. Not anymore.

John Rogers (@jonrog1) Tweeted: LEVERAGE fans young and old, this is who you should be thanking. New show runner @NobleRorick Now follow her and shower upon her your terrifying nerd love. #LeverageRedemption
Kate Rorick (@NobleRorick) Tweeted: Seeing as how it's #LeverageRedemption Eve (and we got our presents early!) I'm gonna take this opportunity to flood your timeline with maudlin sentiment and shoutouts to an exceptional writing staff. Ready? Go!
If you know Leverage, you know @deandevlin. I do not believe there is anyone else on this earth who could have gotten this show made during a global pandemic and through 5 hurricanes. It was a superhuman feat and he guided our incomparable crew through it all.
Also, If you know #Leverage, you are familiar with @jonrog1 and @ChrDowney. Incomparable creators of the original, they were there every step of the way for Redemption as consulting producers, offering guidance, jokes, and the occasional shoulder as needed (which… was needed).
.@joshuaschaer1 is an everyman workhorse who brought his knowledge of the original #Leverage to the room as well as his deadpan delivery and consummate pitching chops. He also laughed at my worst jokes, and I did not think less of him for it.
.@jillybobww was our final addition to the staff — but we could not have done without her incredibly thoughtful approach to story and emotion… as well as her uncanny ability to give things awesome names! (A highly specialized and undervalued room skill.)
.@TeagWall knows things. Her very big brain is full of very, very useful information for planning a con or heist… er, I mean, writing a con and heist show. She can explain the Ideal Gas Law while churning out beautiful drafts and teaching us how to count cards in blackjack.
The one & only @mattogoofingoff is a human lightbulb. I swear I saw it go off over his head a dozen times when he fixed the problem we'd been staring down for an hour. Also gave some of the most I'm-not-crying-you're-crying scenes their heart wrenching dialogue.
Marque Franklin-Williams is not on twitter. But if he was, I would tell you his ever-present room calm that made you feel like you'd just taken the *best* quaaludes belies his intense story chops. Give Marque a "what if…" and he'll take you through Act 5.
I have no idea where @MyJTim came from — rather, I know he hails from Indiana, but to find someone that could crack a joke that made me choke on my LaCroix *and* turn in startlingly mature drafts for a first time staffer *and* rewrite on the fly? Where did he come from?
And finally, @alaynaheim kept us all organized and on task when we converted to Zoom. Also, you know that Halloween ep? Guess who pitched it? And co-wrote it? I will be extremely disappointed/relieved if Alayna has not been hired away by someone come (knock on wood) season 2.
All of this is to say, as a first time showrunner, I got extremely lucky. I'd work with any/all of these folks again in a heart beat. They deserve all the accolades I can throw at them. Cheers on making a great, great show!
