Titus Welliver has shared an emotional response to the news that Bosch: Legacy will end with its upcoming third season on Amazon Freevee. The popular crime drama has been a 10-year journey for the actor, and one that he is certainly going to miss. Bosch author Michael Connelly shared yesterday that the series, which is the follow-up to hugely successful Prime Video’s hit series Bosch, is almost ready to unveil Season 3, but brought with it the bittersweet reveal that the new run of 10 episodes will be the last.
Reacting to the news on his own Instagram account, Welliver expressed his gratitude to the huge team that brought the show to life and to Connelly for delivering him a character that has become as iconic on screen as he is on the page. Welliver said:
“Ten years ago I had the incredible good fortune to be cast as Harry Bosch on the series Bosch . For 10 years I have had the tremendous privilege to work alongside the most amazing writers, producers and cast of actors all driven by the most hardworking and incredible crew. We have become a family, and I’m eternally grateful for every person involved in the tremendous effort it took to make the most substantive show out there. This all started with the genius and gift of Michael Connelly and his marvelous books. I could write a book (and maybe I will) on the years of joy I have experienced walking in Harry’s shoes. I will simply say thank you to all of you for making this the most rewarding and beautiful experience of my career.”
Bosch’s Journey is Not Necessarily Over
While Bosch: Legacy is coming to an end, this is not going to be the last we have seen of Titus Welliver as the dogged detective Bosch on screen. In his original post confirming the end of the series, Connelly noted that the new Bosch-universe series, Ballard, is on the way and teased that it will feature his most famous character.
Ballard is the latest spin-off from Bosch. The series will get a backdoor pilot during Bosch: Legacy, that will introduce the character and set up the new show, which will be based on Connelly’s stories of Renée Ballard, another detective who frequently crosses paths with Harry Bosch. As well as Connelly’s promise that “if you know anything about my books, then you know you have not seen the last of Harry Bosch,” Welliver himself previously teased that he is not quite done with the character yet. Speaking previously to Collider, Welliver explained:
“Well, we introduced her in the tenth episode of Season 3 of Legacy, which is coming out in 2025, and I am doing some episodes of the Ballard spin-off. We have to keep the universes together. Bosch and Bosch: Legacy is the mothership of all things, but the brand is the brand, so you can’t do Robin without having Batman.”
The final season of
Bosch: Legacy
will arrive on FreeVee early in 2025. Meanwhile, fans can relive the first two seasons now, or find all seven seasons of
Bosch
on Prime Video.
