Filming has begun on the third season of the HBO series Big Little Lies, Variety reports. As before, the action will take place in California.
Actress Merrin Dungey, who plays Detective Adrienne Quinlan, will return to her role in the new season. Her character investigated a murder and viewed with suspicion the group of central heroines known as the "Monterey Five."
The director of the third season has yet to be announced. The first shooting day was overseen by one of the production's participants, approved by the Directors Guild of America.
The storyline will be based on the third book in this series by Liane Moriarty, Big Little Truths. Its action unfolds ten years after the events of the previous installments. The time jump is expected to be retained in the series.
Big Little Lies follows several women whose children attend the same school. Their lives change when they become entangled in a murder investigation. The series stars Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Laura Dern, Shailene Woodley and Zoë Kravitz. In the second season, Meryl Streep joined the cast.
