A&E's original drama Bates Motel will kick off its third season on March 9, the network said.
With Vera Farmiga as Norma Bates and Freddie Highmore as her conflicted teenage son Norman returning in their lead roles, the new season will focus on the characters coming to terms with the truth behind their dark family dynamics, A&E said.
Other returning cast members include Max Thieriot as Norman's half-brother, Nestor Carbonell as the town sherriff, Olivia Cooke as Norman's friend Emma and Kenny Johnson as Norma's estranged brother.
