Earlier this year, “Lioness” closed down University Drive for season 3 filming.
The production shut down the road to film stunt, driving and collision scenes, according to a city street use permit. Part of South University Drive and a majority of University Drive were impacted for two days in March.
It wasn’t inherently clear where the scenes fit into the third season. The Star-Telegram caught a glimpse of filming and saw an all-black car with a camera adorned to its roof driving behind a black sedan and black SUV.
All these months later, it appears viewers will finally get a chance to see what was filmed on the road. Here’s what to know.

‘Lioness’ scenes on University Drive teased in new trailer
The tease comes in a 30-second promotional trailer for “Lioness” season 3, episode 6, which is out on Sunday, Sept. 6.
Towards the end of the teaser (around 21 seconds), a black car is seen swerving around traffic. A second later, a semi truck plows into what appears to be the same car.
All of this takes places on University Drive, given the landscape and street signs around the road. Check out the trailer below.
