Aziz Ansari – Geekfeed https://www.geekfeed.com Entertainment News, Celebrities and Fandoms Fri, 30 Apr 2021 11:13:52 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://www.geekfeed.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/cropped-Geekfeed-Favicon-White-32x32.png Aziz Ansari – Geekfeed https://www.geekfeed.com 32 32 Master of None Season 3 Gets New Trailer https://www.geekfeed.com/master-of-none-season-3-gets-new-trailer/ Fri, 30 Apr 2021 11:13:52 +0000 https://www.geekfeed.com/?p=59286 Fans were shocked to find out that Aziz Ansari’s Master of None was coming back for a third season in May. After the show’s years-long hiatus (and Ansari’s bought with the #MeToo Movement), the show will be making a return, but this time, the story won’t be focusing on Dev, but rather his friend Denise.

Watch this trailer:

Here’s the official description:

The Emmy Award-winning MASTER OF NONE returns with a new season that chronicles the relationship of Denise (Emmy Award winner Lena Waithe) and her partner Alicia (BAFTA winner Naomi Ackie). Directed by series co-creator and Emmy winner Aziz Ansari, and scripted by Ansari and Waithe, this new season is a modern love story that intimately illustrates the ups and downs of marriage, struggles with fertility, and personal growth both together and apart. Fleeting romantic highs meet crushing personal losses while existential questions of love and living are raised. 

It’s interesting that Denise should be the focus of this show, as her episode from the second season, Thanksgiving had earned her (and Ansari) a Primetime Emmy for Oustanding Writing for a Comedy Series.

As for the series itself, there are a lot of trademark elements that make Master of None such a unique show, from the visual style to the choice of music. While I would have liked to see Ansari in front of the camera again, I’m also excited to see him just honing his directing skills with this season.

Catch Master of None presents Moments in Love when it returns on May 23 on Netflix.

What’s interesting is, Ansari’s Master of None is making a return out of the blue and it’s been announced for a premiere next month.

This was shared by @NetflixQueue, and they’ve revealed that Master of None will be coming back in May:

We don’t have any official details about Master of None 3 yet, but Variety reports that the series could focus more on Lena Waithe’s character Denise. Back in January, reports were also coming out that Naomi Ackie (The Rise of Skywalker) had joined the cast, and that the series will be shot in London; where Ansari had moved after the accusations came out.

Back in 2017, Ansari had said that he didn’t know what a third season would be about, as he doesn’t, ‘have anything else to say about being a young guy.’ With the global pandemic and 2018 controversy, it’s possible that Ansari may have found some other experience to draw from. Or, if the rumors are true, Dev could be taking a backseat so that Denise could tell more of her story.

No release date has been set for the return of Master of None, but the show is set for a comeback sometime in May. In the meantime, you can check out the first two seasons now available on Netflix.
