Sicario, a standout crime thriller of the 2010s, teased a third Season, but why hasn’t Sicario 3 materialized yet?

The original Sicario, released in 2015, depicted a task force’s covert mission against a Mexican drug cartel, led by CIA agent Matt Graver and enigmatic hitman Alejandro Gillick. Its 2018 sequel, Sicario: Day of the Soldado, reunited Matt and Alejandro, setting the stage for a potential Sicario 3.

While Sicario received critical acclaim and positive audience response, its sequel, despite being well-received, didn’t quite match its predecessor’s success. Nevertheless, news of Sicario 3 emerged, with screenwriter Taylor Sheridan returning for the project. However, the film’s production has yet to materialize.
