Watch Maya Rudolph Vow to Give Away Her Billions in the Loot Season 3 Trailer on Apple TV+
Maya Rudolph sets out to give away her billions in the rollicking Season 3 trailer for Loot on Apple TV+, promising splashy philanthropy, sharper satire, and chaos money can’t fix.
Wealth worship is weird, but it does make for good TV. Apple TV+ dropped the trailer for Loot season 3, and Maya Rudolph is back as Molly Wells, a newly principled billionaire who wants to give away her money... she just has no clue how to actually pull that off.
If you need a refresher: Loot follows Molly after she walks away from a 20-year marriage to tech mogul John Novak (Adam Scott) with an $87 billion settlement. She points her life in a new direction, taking over her philanthropic outfit, the Wells Foundation, and trying very hard to be a person who does some good instead of just buying islands. Season 2 ended with Molly panicking, hopping on her private jet with her devoted assistant Nicholas (Joel Kim Booster), and telling him to fly her as far away as possible. Why? The other billionaires hated her push for more aggressive giving, and things got awkward with her maybe-someday coworker crush Arthur (Nat Faxon). Classic billionaire problems, minus the rockets.
Season 3 picks up after that impulsive exit. The trailer leans into Molly doubling down on the promise to give it all away while the Wells Foundation crew scrambles to keep pace. This is a show that thrives on well-meaning chaos, and it looks like the new episodes keep that energy: big pledges, mixed motives, and a lot of logistics no one thought through.

Inside baseball note: Natasha Lyonne producing is a fun curveball, and Adam Scott doing double duty as both ex-husband on screen and guest star this season is a nice Parks-and-Rec-adjacent brain itch.
Bottom line: the trailer sells a season about actually doing the impossible thing Molly promised. She wants to unload a mountain of money without making it worse, which is trickier than it sounds. If Loot keeps mixing comfy workplace comedy with the absurdity of mega-wealth, this should be a smooth climb back into the jet.
