The digital streaming platform Wink has announced that filming is officially underway for the third season of the television series Lilies of the Valley. The upcoming instalment will carry the subtitle We Will Not Kiss, and the production team has released the first photographs from the set.
The new season will feature a dual timeline, with the narrative unfolding simultaneously in the present day and in the past. This structural choice is intended to reveal completely unexpected sides of the established characters. The creators of the programme have not yet disclosed exactly how the events across the different time periods will connect to one another.
Wink operates as a major subscription video on demand service, commissioning original dramas and series for television audiences. A programme reaching a third season generally indicates a successful initial run and an established viewer base. Early promotional photographs are routinely released to maintain public interest during the active production phase.
Returning cast and new additions
The core ensemble is returning for the new episodes. Actors Nika Zdorik, Sergey Gorodnichiy and Veronika Timofeeva have all resumed their roles from the previous seasons. The continuity of the central cast is maintained as the production shifts into the new timeline format.

Behind the camera, Mikhail Pipiya is serving as the director for the new episodes. Pipiya is returning to the franchise, having previously directed the second instalment of the series, which was produced under the subtitle Lilies of the Valley. Second Spring.
