The third season of drama Beauty and the Beast will begin its 13-episode run on Thursday, May 21 at 8/7c. In addition, The CW announced today that the series has also been renewed for a fourth season, which will air later in the 2015-16 season.
As season three begins, Cat (Kristin Kreuk) and Vincent (Jay Ryan) are able to focus on their love, finally free from Muirfield, manhunts and beasts. However, that love will be tested as new and more dangerous threats await. When they learn that innocent victims are being used to test the boundaries of the impossible, Cat and Vincent will uncover a deeper conspiracy, one which Vincent can fight only by turning to the beast he carries within. But unleashing the beast will risk Vincent's life - along with his and Cat's love - as they struggle to build a normal life together.
The cast also includes Austin Basis, Nina Lisandrello and Nicole Gale Anderson.
Beauty and the Beast is produced by CBS Television Studios in association with Take 5 Productions/Whizbang Films. Executive producers are Brad Kern, Bill Haber, Paul J. Witt, Tony Thomas, Ron Koslow, Frank Siracusa and John Weber, with Sherri Cooper and Jennifer Levin as consultants.
