The live-action adaptation of ‘Alice In Borderland’ is one of Netflix’s most eagerly awaited shows, captivating audiences globally. Building on the popularity of Japanese content, particularly anime, this series has elevated live-action projects to new heights. Here’s a comprehensive look at ‘Alice In Borderland Season 3’ before its release on Netflix.
The release date for ‘Alice In Borderland Season 3’ on Netflix is set for September 25, 2025.
The series stars Kento Yamazaki and Tao Tsuchiya in the leading roles. The cast includes Hayato Isomura, Ayaka Miyoshi, Katsuya Maiguma, Koji Ohkura, Risa Sudou, Hiroyuki Ikeuchi, Tina Tamashiro, Kotaro Daigo, Hyunri, Sakura Kiryu, Yugo Mikawa, Joey Iwanaga, Akana Ikeda, and Kento Kaku.
Discussing his role, Kento Yamazaki, who portrays Arisu, spoke about the dynamic of the third season, stating, “Since Arisu and Usagi are split into separate teams, I found it interesting to see the different atmospheres and character dynamics within each group. Over the seasons, the characters have become so beloved by fans, and I think that’s why the audience can really empathise with them during the life-or-death moments.”
Tao Tsuchiya, playing Usagi, reflected on her preparation: “Everything Usagi has experienced in the past seasons is now part of her story, so whenever I needed to, I would go back and rewatch Seasons 1 and 2. With Season 3 featuring an original story, I felt it was important to approach this role with everything that’s happened so far in mind.” She further added, “As the players become more desperate, everyone’s performances become more intense and dramatic. I think this game really captures the essence of Alice in Borderland — it’s about life and death, and about discovering how you truly want to live.”
Directed by Shinsuke Sato, the show is inspired by Haro Aso’s manga ‘Alice in Borderland’, published by Shogakukan. The plot of Season 3 picks up years after the second season’s conclusion, with Arisu and Usagi happily married but having forgotten their experiences in the borderland. They are once again thrust into perilous situations with the introduction of the Joker card.
