Although it hasn't been officially confirmed by Netflix, multiple sources (including Screen Rant and Vulture) have noted that Seasons 2 and 3 of Too Hot to Handle were reportedly filmed back to back, in secret, on the Turks and Caicos islands. (Season 1 was filmed in Punta Mita, Mexico.) Given that Netflix ordered a third season of Too Hot To Handle ahead of the Season 2 premiere, it would make sense that they'd film two seasons back-to-back!

Variety also corroborated the back-to-back filming statement, noting that sources told them in January 2021 that filming had been going on for months by that point. So if Season 2 premiered back in June 2021, then we think it'd be safe to assume filming for the third season took place in late 2020/early 2021? (The exact dates have never been officially verified.) The Season 3 cast comprises of 10 new fresh faces from the USA, the U.K., Australia, and South Africa. Everyone's favorite A.I. — Lana — is back too.

How many episodes will there be in Season 3? Season 3 contestants will have 10 episodes to try to keep their eyes on the real prize: that 200 grand! (Oh, and meaningful, romantic relationships that aren't purely based on lust as well, we suppose.) Per a report from Radio Times, all 10 episodes of Season 3 will be available to stream on Jan. 19, 2022. Say goodbye to your weekend!
