Is everyone at risk? Will Trent director hints at explosive Season 3 finale

Will Trent, the ABC procedural drama, is all set to premiere with the finale of the third season, and as per reports from the director, the upcoming finale is going to be an explosive one. The show has been having its best ever season, and it appears that the creators have spared no expense when it comes to the upcoming finale, as it is rumored to be a whirlwind of chaos with everybody stuck in the hospital with a deadly bioweapon.

The Will Trent star Erika Christensen, who plays Detective Angie Polaski, made her directorial debut with the penultimate episode of the third season, setting up for a thrilling finale. In a recent conversation with TVLine, she revealed that the Season 3 finale is going to be explosive, as everybody will be in danger.

Here's what the Will Trent director hinted at about the Season 3 finale.

Will Trent Director hints at an explosive Season 3 finale

Will Trent has only one more episode left to stream for its third season, and as per director Christensen, fans need to be worried. The ABC police procedural featured the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the Atlanta Police Department coming together to track down a bioterrorist group in Episode 17 of Season 3, directed by Christensen. Talking about Episode 18, the upcoming finale, and if fans should be worried, Christensen explained:

"They should be very worried. We uncover through the finale how easily communicable and how fast-acting this bioweapon is. Everyone’s in danger, especially if they’re in the hospital, stuck with all these people who’ve already been infected, so they’re all at great risk."

None of the main cast members have died in the past seasons, unlike other ABC shows (yes, Grey's Anatomy and now 9-1-1), but maybe this season might alter that fact, owing to the lethal bioterrorist weapon that the main characters are trapped in the hospital with.

The penultimate episode of Season 3 featured 'a crescendo of chaos,' as described by director Erika, with the hospital now under lockdown and Nico, Ormewood, Seth, and Betty all trapped inside it. They're stuck with all the people who've already been affected by the deadly bioweapon, which is extremely communicable and fast-acting, putting all of their lives in grave danger.

Michael Ormewood, played by Jake McLaughlin, and Nico (Cora Lu Tran) brought the homeless veteran, who was most likely patient zero, to the hospital, bringing him directly into contact with the disease's carrier, putting him at extreme risk. The fact that Ormewood also has a brain tumor he just found out about means the future is not looking very bright for all the Will Trent stars in the finale, whose official synopsis reads:

"Unleashed by a domestic terrorist group, a mysterious biological attack runs rampant in Atlanta; Will is forced to confront the complex dynamics of his own family."

The Season 3 finale is definitely going to be an on-the-edge-of-your-seat kind of episode for the Will Trent fans.

The final episode of the season will air on May 13, 2025, and will be available to stream on ABC at 8:00 PM ET and on Hulu the next day.
