Will Taken Return for Season 3?
Before answering the question, we have to look few things. The direction of the series changed after the first season. The result was not good. The rating of the series kept declining after season 1. The rating of the series is also not good. Therefore, we can not find a single reason to renew the series for the third installment. Any platform will renew the profitable series only, and Taken is not one of them.
NBC has officially canceled the series after season 2. Therefore, it will not return on NBC for sure. However, there are chances that some streaming giant might pick the series for season 3.
The Cast of Taken Season 3? Who Will We See in It?
If Season 3 will ever, then the following characters might return for season 2-

The Plot of Taken? What to Expect From Season 3?
The story revolves around Bryan Mills. While he was traveling with his sister on the train, somebody attacked his sister and killed him. Carlos Mejia, who was a terrorist and a drug dealer had killed his sister. He wanted to take revenge on him, so he became a CIA operative in Director of National Intelligence. However, due to his trauma of losing his sister, he would not be able to focus on his work. He got intense training and acquired new skills to catch Mejia to fulfill his revenge. Season 1 totally focuses on the training and killings by Mills to finally reach Mejia.
In season 2 Mills got trapped in a Mexican prison while completing a mission. However, he escaped from there. He later became part of a plane crash and got trapped with a murder witness. Later, he survived from different terrorists and hunters to reach home.
The series involves total procedural drama.
The creators have not revealed the plot for season 3 of the series so far. However, I guess that season 3 will start from where season 2 ended.

Where Can We Watch the Taken Series?
It is an NBC series so you can watch it there. You can reach NBC through Amazon Prime Video. It is streaming on Netflix as well.
Final verdict
The crime action drama series failed to entertain the fans satisfactorily. The storyline is cliche. There are no unique elements in the series. It failed to please the critics as well. It got only 32% approval from rotten tomatoes. The advance of the plot is not at a good pace. However, the performances of the actors are great but it could not save the series. However, some fans still want to watch Taken 3 and giving an online request to NBC on Twitter to renew the series for the third installment.
