Has Hijack Season 3 Been Renewed or Canceled?

Hijack fans are wondering whether the show will be renewed for Season 3. Following the recent conclusion of its second season, here’s everything we know so far about the popular thriller’s future.

Is Hijack canceled or renewed for Season 3 on Apple TV?

As of now, Apple TV has neither canceled nor renewed Hijack for a third season.

Hijack released its sophomore season on January 14, 2026. Since then, Apple TV has remained silent regarding its future installments. The decision of whether a show will return for a new season typically depends on several factors, including critical and audience reception. Hijack has consistently brought in favorable reviews and viewership numbers throughout both its seasons.

So, fans are hopeful that the show may return for a third installment. However, Apple TV may choose to cancel it as well. For now, an official confirmation is awaited.

But there’s some hope for fans. Shortly ahead of Hijack’s Season 2 premiere, creator and executive producer Jim Field Smith revealed that he is open to bringing back Hijack for a new season. Speaking with TV Insiderhe said, “All I can do when I’m telling a story is to focus on telling that story to the best of my ability. That’s what I’m continuing to do right now with Season 2, and we’re looking forward to getting it out there.”

Field added, “And look, could Sam Nelson find himself having another of the worst days of his life? I’m sure he could. He seems to be a guy that stumbles into bad luck, and I love working with Idris, and whether it was more of this show or something else, I’m sure the collaboration will lead to more.”

Hijack is a thriller series that follows Idris Elba as Sam Nelson, a lawyer and business negotiator who must use his power of persuasion to resolve a hijacking aboard a flight. The series also stars Christine Adams, Max Beesley, Albrecht Schuch, Christian Näthe, Clare-Hope Ashitey, and more.
