Phoenix Rise, a critically acclaimed half-hour teen drama series from BBC Studios, is now in the planning stages of its third season, which will premiere in 2023. The series, which was developed by Perrie Balthazar (of “Bad Sisters”) and Matt Evans (of “A Discovery of Witches”), centres on the hardships of a varied group of kids in the West Midlands educational system. The sitcom was renewed by BBC Studios for a third and fourth season in April 2023. In August 2023, the cast and crew are anticipated to start shooting season 3 in Coventry.
The first season of the show, which included ten episodes, debuted in March 2023. Later in 2023, a second season is scheduled to debut. Episodes are shown on BBC Three in addition to being available on BBC iPlayer. Following the popularity of the first season, BBC decided to give the show two more seasons. Production on the third season will begin in August, and a release date for the second batch of episodes has not yet been set. The majority of the series takes place in West Midlands county’s Coventry, where the first two seasons’ production was based. It comes as no surprise that the West Midlands-based sitcom will shoot its third season in Coventry.
Perrie Balthazar and Matt Evans came up with the idea for “Phoenix Rise.” The two decided to investigate the gaps in the region’s educational system and the kids who had been expelled from it because they are both from the Midlands. “We have always emphasised that we intended to concentrate on children who had gotten lost in the system and were given one last chance to succeed in school. In a news release, Evans stated of the programme, “That’s why we dubbed it Phoenix Rise because it’s six youngsters who are given one last chance to rise from the ashes and excel in school.
