Netflix has renewed Kiefer Sutherland's political thriller Designated Survivor for a 3rd season consisting of 10 episodes.
The show aired on ABC for 2 seasons.
In season 3, President Kirkman (Sutherland) will face a political reality… campaigning. What does it take to make a leader? What price will he be willing to pay? This season will explore today's world of campaigning, smear tactics, debates, campaign finance and "fake news.” Democracy, as we know it, will hang in the balance.
Season 3 will got into production later this year and air sometime in 2019
Netflix previously also saved Lucifer, which was cancelled by FOX after 3 seasons.
