The more things change, the more they… well, you know. That’s a lesson Eve (Sandra Oh) and Villanelle (Jodie Comer) are still learning in the final season of “Killing Eve.” A trailer for the hit spy thriller/demented love story has dropped.
When we catch up with our anti-heroines, Villanelle is trying to commit to Christianity and resist killing people, and Eve is trying to stay out of the espionage game — it’s not going well for either of them. It’s only a matter of time before Carolyn (Fiona Shaw) asks Eve to help her on a case, and before Eve and Villanelle are back in each other’s orbits.
“If you’d really changed, you wouldn’t have come here,” Eve tells Villanelle upon their reunion. “If you’d really changed, you wouldn’t have let me,” Villanelle coolly replies.
Laura Neal (“Sex Education”) serves as head writer on “Killing Eve’s” final season. She succeeds last season’s Suzanne Heathcote (“Fear the Walking Dead”), Season 2’s Emerald Fennell (“Promising Young Woman”), and creator and original head writer Phoebe Waller-Bridge.
Oh has won a Golden Globe for her work in “Killing Eve,” and Comer has snagged an Emmy. Oh is currently up for a SAG Award for her titular performance in Netflix’s “The Chair,” while Comer was last seen in historical epic “The Last Duel.” Shaw just signed on to star in Rebecca Lenkiewicz’s directorial debut, “Hot Milk.”
“Killing Eve” returns February 27 on BBC America and AMC+.
