After a Plane and a Train, Apple’s Hijack Showrunner Jokes Season 3 Could Take Place “On a Boat,” “On an E-Bike,” “In the Back of a Limo,” or Even “A Submarine

Jim Field Smith, the showrunner of Hijack, is keeping season 3 possibilities open but isn’t committing yet. His focus is on whether there’s a compelling story for Sam Nelson (played by Idris Elba) rather than the logistics of where the action could take place.

He floated some playful ideas—boats, e-bikes, limos, even submarines—but stresses that the “precinct” or location isn’t what matters. The core question is: Is there more story to tell for Sam? Smith hasn’t plotted any season 3 narratives yet and seems to prefer waiting to see if a story naturally emerges rather than forcing the format again.

Both Hijack seasons 1 and 2 are available on Apple TV Plus, so viewers can catch up while the future of the series is still up in the air.
