Based on that footage alone, it was possible that Lethal Weapon would spend a few minutes killing off Riggs and then move into a lighthearted first case for the new partners, putting the ugly situation with Clayne Crawford out of sight and out of mind.
What we didn’t know for sure was how Lethal Weapon would handle the aftermath of Riggs’ death.
All things considered, the reveal that Riggs died was not a surprise, and many fans probably knew that was coming.
The trailer for Season 3 was full of action, adventure, and banter between Murtaugh and his new partner, played by Seann William Scott.
