Who would return if Games People Play Season 3 is renewed?
Since we are already disappointed with BET this time, we are only finding relief in expecting the cast to return someday. With that in mind, let us envision the unannounced Season 3 with its original and previous cast, who will tie up the loose ends sometime in the future.
In this session, you will also get an introduction to the characters, which will make things appear with even more clarity.
- Vanessa King, played by Lauren London, is a frantic basketball wife out to protect her family.
- Nia Bullock, a feisty reporter striving to restore her wrecked career, is played by Karen Obilom, Vanessa’s best friend and confidante.
- Parker McKenna Posey plays Laila James, a scandalous groupie who aspires to be a celebrity.
- Sarunas Jackson portrays Marcus King, a professional basketball all-star who was a member of the New York Gladiators before being traded to the Los Angeles Vipers. He has a wife named Vanessa.
- Kendall Kyndall plays Nia’s assistant and best friend, Marquis “MJ” Jackson, a former Gladiators basketball player and collegiate basketball powerhouse. Kareem Johnson, Marcus’ greatest friend, and assistant was a former Gladiators basketball star and collegiate basketball standout played by Jackie Long (season 2; recurring season 1)
- Karrueche Tran plays Eden Lazlo, the daughter of the Los Angeles Vipers owner and the freshly appointed VP of basketball operations, who complicates Marcus’ love life even more (season 2)
- Brandi Denise plays Quanisha.
What could be the plot of Season 3 Games People Play?
Do you really think there would be a possible plot to discuss when the showrunners have not even considered informing us about its renewal status?
Never mind, we can still have a decent talk about the previous seasons, which have garnered amiable appreciation from the audience as a whole.
The series covers three women, Nia, Vanessa, and Laila, as well as the men in their lives, and has an ensemble cast of fascinating characters such as an ambitious reporter, a rich basketball player, a desperate housewife, a scandalous groupie, and a homicidal stalker. In a harsh struggle for success, these women’s goals and aims are rarely altruistic, but their life choices and ambition will determine what it takes to stay on top. It occurs when people engage in games “inside the high-stakes realm of professional sports when everyone is competing for a triumph.”
BET announced on April 17, 2018, that the project had gotten a series order for a ten-episode first season. Executive producers were slated to be Tracey Edmonds, Angela Burt-Murray, and Vanessa Middleton, with Middleton also serving as showrunner. Edmonds Entertainment was one of the series’ production firms. On December 6, 2018, it was reported that Middleton will write the series’ pilot episode and serve as a co-showrunner alongside Kim Newton, who will also executive produce. According to a press statement, the series was rebranded in Games People Play on January 31, 2019. The series premiered on April 23, 2019, as previously announced on April 1, 2019.
On November 13, 2019, the series was renewed for a second season. And the series premiered on October 19, 2021.
