After receiving wonderful reviews and a very good score from the viewers, Netflix renewed After Life right after the release date of season 2. Ricky Gervais, along with the cast and the crew started production of After Life season 3 in April 2021.

Netflix shared the good news on its official Twitter account as well.

The first season of After Life hit Netflix in March 2019 and the second season followed in April 2020. We could make a guess about After Life season 3 release date based on this routine. But due to the pandemic related restrictions, the filming will probably take a bit longer. Although it is a slight possibility, After Life season 3 might land on Netflix right before 2022.
