Filming begins on season three of Paramount+'s Five Bedrooms
• Five Bedrooms has commenced filming in Melbourne
Paramount+ has announced that season three of Five Bedrooms is currently in production.
The drama-comedy series tells the story of a group of very different people, from very different backgrounds, at very different stages of life, all living under the one roof. There's so much more to come for the housemates; Liz (Kat Stewart), Ben (Stephen Peacocke), Heather (Doris Younane), Harry (Roy Joseph) and Ainsley (Katie Robertson).
Airing on the freshly launched Paramount+, season two of Five Bedrooms dives hard into themes that resonate globally. There’s a new home. A DIY renovation. A DIY renovation injury. Two pregnancies. An ex-husband. A workplace bullying complaint. An unexpected tragedy. Love found and love lost. Plus, the addition of some new faces: Rodger Corser plays Stuart, Liz’s ex- husband; Daniel Lapaine plays Ben’s brother, an investment banker; and Josh McKenzie plays Harry’s love interest, Xavier.
Five Bedrooms creator and writer Michael Lucas said: "We are so ridiculously invested in these five characters, we simply can't stop imagining funny, fraught, tragic, joyful situations to put them in. So, we are beyond delighted that we've been given a third season to run wild with them again, and we're delighted to report that the cast have come out of the gates in best-ever form!"
Doris Younane said: "I've been in the industry for 35 years and these are the best scripts I've read. There's so much love in season three, so much heart, and the comedy comes from the drama; it's beautifully positioned. For me, this is great love and I want it to never stop. I'd like to be in a nursing home still shooting Five Bedrooms."
