A dark comedy, Transparent is the story of the Pfefferman family in the aftermath of the family patriarch’s decision to live life as a woman. “I am so thrilled that I get to share more of the Pfeffermans’ story with the world,” said series creator Jill Soloway. “We are all so in love with watching them change and grow. I am blown away by the creative freedom Amazon gives me and I can’t wait to reveal where this journey is going to take us.”
Along for the ride in Season 3 will be returning cast members Jeffrey Tambor as Maura, Judith Light as Shelly, Gaby Hoffmann as Ali, Amy Landecker as Sarah, and Jay Duplass as Josh.
Soloway, who has signed a deal to work exclusively on television projects for Amazon Prime, was praised by Vice President of Amazon Studios Roy Price. “Jill is truly a creative force and I’m thrilled that we will be collaborating with her additional projects in the future and on a third season of Transparent,” he said. “The second season is currently starting production, and I know our customers will be delighted to continue the journey with Maura and the Pfefferman family.”
Production on the binge-worthy series begins next week in Los Angeles, with Season 2 being released later this year.
