While a third season is anything but a given, The Gifted looks to close out its brilliant second season in epic fashion as the Mutant Underground and Morlocks band together to stop Reeva (Grace Byers) and the Inner Circle once and for all. It also looks like they may be getting some major reinforcements as Reed Strucker (Stephen Moyer) prepares to finally unleash his true power.
On another note, showrunner Matt Nix recently revealed to /Film at the Television Critics Association winter tour that he remains hopeful for a third season, but believes that if they do return it may be on a streaming service, presumably Hulu due to the impending Disney/Fox deal.
"I think that my sense is that the most likely thing is that if we come back, we’ll come back in some sort of creative way. Some partnership, because I think what we’ve discovered is that fans of The Gifted are big fans of The Gifted. We have a solid fan base and it’s a little small for the broadcast networks. But we do well on streaming so there may be, my hope is that there’s something to work out in that realm."
Considering the fact that Marvel Television does have an active stake in the series, as they promote The Gifted on their own respective social channels, it does seem possible that once the Disney/Fox merger closes that they'd have, at least, some interest in keeping the critically acclaimed series alive.
