Dark Winds Season 3 Spoilers
Season 3 starts six months after the events of season 2 left off. Lieutenant Leaphorn and Chee are investigating the disappearance of two missing boys. Meanwhile, Manuelito adjusts to her new life as a U.S. border patrol agent hundreds of miles away and stumbles upon a possible trafficking conspiracy.
During the Dark Winds season 3 premiere in New York City, series star Deanna Taushi Allison teased that viewers can expect a “scary” and “darker” batch of episodes, she exclusively told Hollywood Life.

“The hair on your back is going to tingle,” Deanna said about season 3. “As a Navajo woman and as a Navajo actress, just to be able to play [my character Emma Leaphorn) has been a dream. I feel like our show does represent … indigenous actors through a Navajo lens.”
Deanna added that she is “overjoyed” to have the chance to speak the Navajo language on the show and bring that dialogue to viewers. “For me, it’s almost like a sentiment to my ancestors and generations before me who were chastised for speaking the Navajo language,” she told Hollywood Life on the red carpet.
All eight episodes of Dark Winds season 3 will be released every Sunday on AMC and AMC+ through April 27, 2025.
