‘The Killing’ Season 3 Slashes Up Its First Teaser

With all eyes on AMC last night for the big 'Walking Dead' season 3 finale "Welcome to the Tombs," the cable network trotted out a number of promos for its upcoming premieres, including next week's 'Mad Men' debut and upcoming summer thriller 'Low Winter Sun.' Perhaps most exciting of all, though, was a first look into 'The Killing' season 3 and its all-new case, while AMC did its best to make us forget they originally cancelled the Seattle murder mystery. Now that bygones are bygones, get a first look at 'The Killing' season 3 inside!

Now that 'The Walking Dead' season 3 has fallen by the wayside, AMC has its upcoming spring and summer slates to look forward to, notable among them being a third season of 'The Killing' on June 2, picking up with an all-new case after the wrap up of the Rosie Larsen mystery. AMC has released its first teaser trailer for the new season, which previews an intriguing new killer with a penchant for abducting and experimenting on young girls.

The new season of the AMC drama will open up a year after the close of the Rosie Larsen murder that dominated the first two seasons, with Linden having left the force until ex-partner Stephen Holder’s search for a runaway girl leads him to discover a gruesome string of murders that connects to Linden’s previous murder investigation. ‘The Killing’ season 3 understandably won’t involve the Larsen Family, nor will seasons 1 and 2 regular Mayor Darren Richmond (Billy Campbell) appear.

In addition to the recent casting of ‘BSG’ vet Aaron Douglas, ‘Flashpoint’s’ Hugh Dillon, Johnny Ray Gill and Peter Sarsgaard’s role as death row inmate and sinisterly dominant “lifelong convict” Tom Seward, ‘The Killing’s’ third season also boasts among its cast Amy Semeitz, Max Fowler and Elias Koteas.
