'Killing Eve' season 3 is coming two weeks earlier than we thought

Oh my Sandra! It looks like everyone's favourite drama queen murderer and drama-queen-murderer expert are returning to our screens sooner than expected. Killing Eve season three was set to debut at the end of next month on April 26, but then news dropped March 27 that the award-winning show will be moving up the premiere date to Sunday, April 12-—TWO weeks early—exclusively on CTV Drama Channel in Canada. Thank you for this blessing, Sandra Oh, Jodie Comer and Phoebe Waller-Bridge.That premiere date gives you the perfect amount of time to rewatch the first two seasons or, if you haven't seen the show (first of all, how dare you?), get caught up. And that's incredibly crucial because we've been treated to a trailer for season three and—we're warning you now—it's got MAD spoilers for the end of season two.

Okay, so if you had "killer clown" on your Killing Eve BINGO card, it took three seasons, but there you go. We last left our heroine, Eve Polastri (national treasure Sandra Oh), bleeding out after being shot by the obsessive murderer-for-hire in love with her, Villanelle (Jodie Comer). In the new promo, we find out that 1) Eve = not dead; 2) Villanelle thought Eve was dead but quickly finds out she's not; and 3) Villanelle is not happy that Eve's not dead. Classic.[video_embed id='1881295']RELATED: Phoebe Waller-Bridge shows off painted-on six-pack[/video_embed]According to a press release, the third season, "continues the story of two women with brutal pasts, addicted to each other but now trying desperately to live their lives without their drug of choice. For Villanelle, the assassin without a job, Eve is dead. For Eve, the ex-MI6 operative hiding in plain sight, Villanelle will never find her. All seems fine until a shocking and personal death sets them on a collision course yet again.”Oh, more personal deaths, you say? Great.In Canada, Killing Eve season three will air Sundays on CTV Drama Channel and you can catch up on the first two seasons on CTVDrama.ca.[video_embed id='1929869']BEFORE YOU GO: Rihanna blesses us with new song[/video_embed]
