　　The second season of Riviera sees Georgina (Julia Stiles) focused on trying to get away with murder as she fights to retain power within the Clios household and her position at the top of the elusive art world.
　　As Georgina Clios struggles for power and respect in the family, the Elthams arrive on the Cote d'Azur. The Elthams are a dynasty and are not too dissimilar from the Clios', harbouring secrets of their own. Georgina is reunited with her uncle Jeff, played by the ever charming Will Arnett, and the audience are exposed to more secrets about her life back home in America that she tried so hard to bury.

　　A third season of Riviera has been confirmed by Julia Stiles to be released on Sky Atlantic next year in 2020.
　　We believe we’ll be seeing Georgina Clios journey to an assortment of new locations in her continued effort to maintain her place at the top of the art-dealing scene. Georgina’s enemies are on the verge of unravelling the secrets and lies that concern her husband Constantine.
　　Series three will see Georgina escape the French Riviera in favour of a host of exotic locations. For her to take a detour to Venice is certainly a bit different, but a trip to Argentina just highlights the new heights that series three will reach. There’s been no word on other locations and to what extent the Côte d’Azur will feature, but you can imagine Georgina will be greeted by a breadth of intriguing new characters along the way.
