Killing Eve Season 3 Plot and Review:
The series has deviated a lot from the novel in several ways, but something that keeps us hooked is the tango between Eve and Villanelle, which is built on an explosive will-they-won’t-they situation.
When Villanelle shot Eve in season two finale, she was presumed dead. However, we know that she’s very much alive in season three. The series starts with Eve working in a kitchen and living unhappily alone.
Eve, an ex-MI6 is trying to hide from Villanelle, so she can never find her. The story moves smoothly until the death of their closed ones, and they are once again exposed to each other. Killing Eve season 3 shows its two main characters trying to move away from the worst breakup ever in drastically different ways.
Season 3 gives off a different vibe. Killing Eve is still a thrilling watch, but it’s different from the first two seasons.
