Biggest (& Best) Bosch: Legacy Season 3 Theories

Bosch: Legacy season 2 left fans with a cliffhanger ending, setting the stage for intriguing theories about the upcoming season 3. From Chandler's new role to Mo's involvement with the feds, here are some of the most compelling theories for the next installment of the hit series.

Chandler Becomes DA Of Los Angeles

At the center of several life-threatening and (potentially) career-destroying events in season 2, Honey 'Money' Chandler escaped relatively unscathed, thanks in large part to her life-long experience as an accomplished attorney. By the sophomore season's end, Chandler resolves to run for District Attorney. The somewhat-abrupt decision is made all-the-more believable when it becomes clear that LA's current DA, Emmett Archer, is more than willing to cover up police corruption. There's no doubt that Chandler will leverage this insight, and, given the character's arc, it makes perfect sense for her to move into a new, more high-powered position in Bosch: Legacy season 3.

The Feds Aren't Finished With Mo

In Bosch: Legacy season 2, Maurice 'Mo' Bassi had a budding would-be romance with fellow hacker, Jade Quinn. Unfortunately, Legacy revealed that Jade, a.k.a. Janice Morrell, was actually an FBI agent who was using Mo. After Morrell uses the pharma case to incriminate Mo, her fellow feds apply pressure to Bosch's associate in the hopes of getting him to reveal crucial intel into Harry and Chandler's dealings. Later, Mo threatens to expose Morrell's identity to the hacker community, which could spell huge trouble for Janice and her fed colleagues. Needless to say, Mo's encounter with federal law enforcement is probably far from over.

Irvin Irving's Story Officially Ends After The Late Lance Reddick's Cameo

Much to fans' excitement, a key Bosch character made a cameo in Bosch: Legacy season 2: Lance Reddick's Irvin Irving. The former Deputy Chief of the LAPD, Irving is a city councilman in La La Land when he turns up in Legacy. Eager to turn her ambition into action, Chandler meets with Irving to ask for his endorsement ahead of her DA campaign. Sadly, Reddick passed away in 2023, and it doesn't seem likely that the show will recast the character. That said, if the series was planning for Irving's return, Bosch: Legacy may have to find a way to tie up Irvin Irving's story for good.

Chandler's New Role Is Compromised By Bosch

In season 2, Honey Chandler put her career (and life) on the line several times, especially when she caught the attention of corrupt cops, Ellis and Long, while trying to clear her own client's name in a murder trial. Of course, that wasn't the only drama thrown Chandler's way: the defense attorney became the subject of the FBI's latest spy efforts. While she was able to evade their slings and arrows, especially with regard to the Carl Rogers case, Chandler isn't out of the woods yet. All that time spent with vendetta-fueled criminals, crooked cops, and the not-so-innocent Bosch could threaten her new DA role.
