The Trailer for 'Dickinson' Season 3 Promises a Poetic Ending to Emily's Story

Apple TV+'s buzzy period comedy-drama Dickinson has always been a show that took big risks, narratively speaking. After all, this is a series that not only reimagines one of America's most famous poets as a moody millennial who frequently takes carriage rides with a literal, stylishly dressed incarnation of Death, and features everything from a rap soundtrack to giant, anthropomorphic bees. It's truly unlike anything else on television right now, in all the best ways.

The series' ten-episode third (and final) season will arrive this Fall, and if the trailer is any indication of what to expect, Dickinson will go out as it lived, swinging for the fences.

Season 3 will see our young Emily Dickinson (Hailee Steinfeld) struggling to find meaning in her work, as the Civil War rages across America and simple things like words feel more useless than ever in the wake of its resultant horrors. After all, what good can poetry really do, in the face of so much death and suffering? As she looks to find a way to use her words to heal the divides around her, Emily attempts to ground herself in her relationship with Sue (Ella Hunt) and connection to her family, even as conflicts of many stripes seem to surround them all.
