Exclusive: Mekhi Phifer, Merle Dandridge, Nichelle Tramble Spellman, Maisha Closson talk Truth Be Told Season 3
Now airing on Apple TV+ from acclaimed writer and executive producer Nichelle Tramble Spellman is Season Three of "Truth Be Told," the NAACP Image Award-winning series that provides a unique glimpse into America’s obsession with true crime podcasts.
The 10-episode third season stars Octavia Spencer alongside new addition, award-winning actress Gabrielle Union, and sees Spencer reprise her role as investigative reporter turned true crime podcaster (Poppy Scoville), to take on a new case.
In season three, Poppy (Spencer), frustrated by the lack of media attention for several young missing Black girls, teams with an unorthodox principal (Union) to keep the victims' names in the public eye while chasing down leads to a suspected sex trafficking ring that may have ensnared them.
In addition to Union, returning cast members include series regulars Mekhi Phifer, David Lyons, Ron Cephas Jones, Merle Dandridge, Tracie Thoms, Haneefah Wood, Mychala Faith Lee and Tami Roman.
