Why was Stargirl renewed for Season 3?

According to Deadline, Stargirl was The CW’s most-watched summer debut in six years. The renewal of the show had been made slightly easier due to corporate synergies. The pick-up of Stargirl, meanwhile, is part of a deal between The CW and HBO Max to co-finance the show.

The show originally aired as part of DC Universe but was renewed for a second season by The CW in the summer of 2020, and a deal was worked out between the broadcast network and the streamer where The CW gets its first run followed by its launch on HBO Max.

“While each boasts remarkable talent on both sides of the camera, Kung Fu and DC’s Stargirl have not only treated fans to some visually stunning action and high-flying heroics, but they also both strike very powerful emotional chords as they delve into the family dynamics and personal relationships at their core, and we are so excited to see what happens next.”

Moreover, in May 2021, the series was renewed for a third season. The official Twitter handle of DC’s Stargirl also confirmed the renewal. The tweet reads, “She’s shining brighter than ever! #DCStargirl has been renewed for Season 3!” Take a look at the official announcement below:

Stargirl Season 3 Plot

In a recent interview with TVLine, Bassinger revealed that another theme for Stargirl Season 3 is a “murder mystery.” Without revealing which character may be the subject of this murder. It was revealed at the end of last season that Season 3 is subtitled “Frenemies” and series star Brec Bassinger recently teased that the season will feature a murder mystery theme that will see hero and villain try to figure out who the killer is. “You know what, I’m just gonna say it,” Bassinger said. “Murder mystery! And how evil and good are going to live in a town together and figure out who the murderer is.” 

However, the recently released trailer for Stargirl Season 3 alluded to the more intriguing difficulties that Sylvester Pemberton/reappearance of Starman’s in Season 3 will bring Stargirl (Joel McHale). Given that both Stargirl and Starman use the Cosmic Staff and since there is only one Cosmo, it was revealed at the end of the last season that he is actually still alive. This should make things interesting.
