Exclusive Leverage: Redemption Sneak Peek: Hardison Has a Secret in Superfun, Season-Opening 1-Shot
Hardison is keeping a secret, and it nearly spills out during TVLine's exclusive sneak peek at the opening minutes of Leverage: Redemption Season 3. Season 3 of the caper drama (which now calls Prime Video home) premieres this Thursday, April 17, with the first three episodes of 10, followed by weekly drops. The clip above finds Hardison/The Hacker (played by Aldis Hodge), Parker/The Thief (Beth Riesgraf), Sophie/The Grifter (Gina Bellman) and Eliot/The Hitter (Christian Kane) each doing the thing they do so well, in order to steal something from a Paris hotel — all as part of a superfun, mostly one-shot sequence.

Might it have to do with what Hardison says in a previoulsy released trailer, about not being able to do this job anymore? After all, the increasingly busy Hodge did tell TVLine that Leverage fans once again 'might not get enough' of Hardison 'because I was little occupied shooting Season 2 of Cross' last summer. In Leverage: Redemption Season 3, Sophie, Eliot, Parker, Hardison, Breanna/The Maker (Aleyse Shannon) and Harry/The Fixer (Noah Wyle) will contend with a power broker stealing the clean water under people's feet and turning it into dirty money, fight a mayor who's literally the judge and jury of his small town, outrun a mark who's finally caught up with them mid-con, out-hustle a pool hustler with a side hustle in extortion, and bring down an industrialist exploiting child labor, the official synopsis tells us. 'All this while dodging an intricate plan of vengeance from a past enemy and working through the fallout of their new personal relationships.' Guest stars on tap for Leverage: Redemption Season 3 include Rachael Harris (Lucifer), Auden Wyle (back as Harry's daughter), Jack Coleman (Heroes), Drew Powell (Gotham), Alex Boniello (Ghosts' Crash), Cedric Yarbrough (The Goldbergs), Mary Hollis Inboden (The Righteous Gemstones) and Sam Witwer (Smallville).Best of TVLine Summer TV Calendar: Your Guide to 85+ Season and Series Premieres Classic Christmas Movies Guide: Where to Watch It's a Wonderful Life, Miracle on 34th Street, Elf, Die Hard and Others What's New on Netflix in June

This weekend: Fundraiser planned for man beaten by fake delivery drivers
SAVANNAH, Ga. (WSAV) – The Savannah bar and restaurant industry is coming together to support one of their own Sunday. Local bartender Dirk Hardison was attacked by two pretend Amazon workers at his home on January 11th. The 66-year-old was hospitalized and received 14 stitches. People in the service industry are known to stick up for one another and support each other during times of need. That's exactly what's happening at Boomy's Bar on Sunday. People who don't even know Hardison, like bar owner Michelle Methot, are showing their support as he recovers from this attack. 'Helping out someone else in the industry who's fallen on hard times, it's just a no brainer,' Methot said. The event this weekend will have baked goods for sale, a raffle and silent auction with all of the proceeds going to Hardison. This is just an example of the outpouring of love he's have shared their memories of him along with their well wishes, many who call him by his nickname 'Bar Santa.' Jamie Stroh, a friend of Hardison, helped organize this fundraiser. He says he can't imagine why anyone would do this. 'He's just a really laid-back guy,' Stroh said. 'He's extremely nice. I mean, he'd probably give his shirt off his back to anybody and everybody. I mean, he's just that kind of a guy.' The event is happening this Sunday from 2-6 p.m. at 409 West Congress St. A GoFundMe has been set up as well. Hardison is out of the hospital now but still recovering, according to a friend. Of the two men who allegedly beat him, only one has been arrested. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.
