Production

[edit]

Development

[edit]

Lioness was announced in September 2020 as part of a Paramount+ programming slate unveiling.[10]

The series was renewed for a second season in May 2024.[4] Sheridan penned all eight episodes of the first and second seasons.[11]

Casting

[edit]

In February 2022, Zoe Saldaña was cast to star in the series, and joined as an executive producer alongside Nicole Kidman.[12] Laysla De Oliveira joined the cast the following month.[13] In June, Sheridan took over as showrunner of the series from Thomas Brady following the conclusion of the show's writers' room.[14] Casting continued in September, with the additions of Dave Annable, LaMonica Garrett, James Jordan, Austin Hébert, Jonah Wharton and Hannah Love Lanier.[15][16] In January 2023, Kidman and Michael Kelly joined the cast alongside Morgan Freeman.[17][18][19]

On May 9, 2024, it was reported that returning cast members for season two include Zoe Saldaña, Laysla De Oliveira, Michael Kelly, and Nicole Kidman, with Morgan Freeman being promoted to a series regular role.[4] Upon the renewal becoming official on that same date, De Oliveira expressed her excitement about returning to her role as Cruz on her Instagram account.[11] On May 17, 2024, it was announced that Thad Luckinbill was promoted as a series regular for the second season.[6] Few days later, Genesis Rodriguez joined the cast in an undisclosed capacity for the second season.[20] On September 13, 2024, Max Martini, Kirk Acevedo, and Patricia de Leon were cast in recurring roles for the second season.[8] It was later noted that Sheridan played a role named Cody - the KT tape-wrapped former SEAL who assured an iffy Joe.[21]

Filming

[edit]

Filming began in Delaware in September 2022[22] and continued in Mallorca in January 2023.[23] In May 2023, it was announced that the series title was changed from Lioness to Special Ops: Lioness,[1] although the title card remained unchanged. The title reverted to the original title when the series was renewed for its second season.[2]

Andrew Lockington composed the soundtrack for the series, having previously worked with Taylor Sheridan in Mayor of Kingstown. Lakeshore Records has released the series' soundtrack.[citation needed]

In May 2024, production for the second season officially began, relocating from the gritty streets of Baltimore, Maryland, to the expansive landscapes of Texas.[24] Sheridan was reported to be directing the third episode of the new season.[24] On August 29, 2024, Kelly announced that filming of the second season had been wrapped.[25]

Inspiration

[edit]

The series is very loosely based on the premise of "Team Lioness", where in Iraq in 2003 the decision was made to send female soldiers out with patrols, aiming to stop insurgents from using women to smuggle material because male US soldiers found it difficult to search Muslim women. These teams found themselves in direct combat situations, in violation of the Combat Exclusion Policy (changed only a decade later), which hindered the soldiers from getting veteran benefits after service.[26][27]

Release

[edit]

Paramount+ unveiled a first-look trailer for the show on 8 June 2023.[28] The eight-part series premiered on 23 July 2023 on Paramount+ with two one-hour episodes, and subsequent episodes released weekly thereafter.[29] The red carpet premiered for the series, initially slated for 18 July 2023 at the Directors Guild of America Theatre in Los Angeles, was canceled due to the impact of the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike in the United States.[30] This marked one of the first events to be canceled in response to the strike.[31]

The second season was released with a two-episode premiere on October 27, 2024.[5]

Critical response

Critical response of Lioness
SeasonRotten TomatoesMetacritic
156% (36 reviews)[32]56 (19 reviews)[33]
289% (9 reviews)[34]—

For the first season, the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reported a 56% approval rating and an average rating of 6.1/10, based on 36 reviews. The website's critics consensus reads, "Zoe Saldaña provides the energy of a Lioness, but these Special Ops are largely derivative and unconvincing."[32] On Metacritic, it has a weighted average score of 56 out of 100 based on 19 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[33]

Despite praising the performances of Laysla De Oliveira and Zoe Saldaña, Anita Singh of The Daily Telegraph criticized "the one thing that lets the show down is Nicole Kidman as a CIA boss, whose frozen face these days is a total distraction".[35]

Tania Hussain of Collider praised the performance of the cast but criticised the show as "flawed story" and found Taylor Sheridan was struggling to write about women.[36] Another writer from Collider, Michael John Petty, said the series "might work best as a one-and-done story," though later noted in his Season 2 review that the show that "Sheridan and company have managed to extend the narrative as organically as possible, offering hope for the future of this series."[37][38] Angie Han of The Hollywood Reporter criticized the script as "seems to be constructed with the assumption that most of the audience will only be half-watching while scrolling Facebook on their phones anyway" but couldn't deny the fact that "there is one aspect of Special Ops: Lioness that shines through clear as day no matter how much or how little of your focus you've directed toward it, and that is its reverence for the U.S. Marine Corps".[39]

Jim Hemphill of IndieWire praised the cinematography work of Paul Cameron as it "breaks all the cinematography rules" and "in Cameron's hands, even a standard dialogue scene between two actors has extra dynamism and energy that come simply from looking for unorthodox angles or alternating focal lengths in a manner that might seem counterintuitive".[40]

Reviewer Mike Hale, writing for The New York Times, wrote that the show "turned out to be a moody, suspenseful, textured genre piece with characters you cared about," and that "Sheridan found a form, the action thriller, that suits him better than the western soap operas and contemporary crime dramas that he has produced up to now." Initially, when only screening the first episode, Hale wrote the show "looks like an awful lot of other counterterrorism thrillers, with a visceral punch to its action and a ticky-tacky, backlot feel."[41][42] Also based on the first episode, Variety criticised it as "cliché" and "shameless military propaganda".[26]

On Rotten Tomatoes, the second season has an 89% approval rating based on 9 critic reviews, with an average rating of 7.3/10.[34]

Audience viewership

[edit]

The first season achieved a milestone by becoming the streamer's most-watched worldwide series premiere on launch day at the time, drawing nearly 6 million total viewers in its first week across Paramount+ globally and during a linear preview on the Paramount Network.[2][43][44] This record was later surpassed by Lawmen: Bass Reeves, another series produced by Taylor Sheridan for Paramount+. It garnered 7.5 million viewers worldwide within the first 7 days across Paramount+ and during a broadcast sampling run on CBS.[45] Special Ops: Lioness emerged as one of the most-watched global series premieres on Paramount+ in 2023.[2]

The second season garnered 3 million views within its first seven days.[46] It placed #4 Paramount+ originals with the biggest domestic household premieres.[47] It was reported a total of 12.4 million viewers globally across all platforms until the week of November 10 and an increase of average households from 4.8 million to 5.4 million.[48] The second season reached 8.3 million domestic households, a 10% increase compared to its season 1 of 7.6 million, and secured #3 in the most-watched global series premieres on Paramount+ in 2024.[49]

According to Nielsen's latest data, measuring only U.S. views on TV sets, the second season was placed #8[50] and #5[51] position in the original series chart during the week of October 28–November 3 and November 4–10, respectively. It placed #6[52] and #7[53] for November 11–17 and November 18–24, respectively. According to Luminate Film & TV Streaming Viewership, the second and first season ranked as the #4 and #8 most-watched streaming original series in the U.S. for the week of November 29–December 5.[54]
