Filming has begun on a small number of scenes for the third season of *Big Little Lies*, but the show’s main cast is not expected to start shooting until 2027.

The scenes filmed last week feature Merrin Dungey, who plays Detective Quinlan, according to Nieuws.nl, which cites *Variety*. The early filming is reportedly for tax reasons, the Dutch outlet says, citing US media.

The schedules of the five central cast members — Nicole Kidman, Reese Witherspoon, Laura Dern, Zoë Kravitz and Shailene Woodley — have not yet been fully aligned. Production is expected to begin in full once that is resolved, Nieuws.nl reports, citing *Deadline*.

Based on Liane Moriarty’s novel, *Big Little Lies* began in 2017 with a seven-episode first season. Its second season, featuring Meryl Streep, was released in 2019.
