'Bates Motel' Season 3 Release Date Expected 2015, Cast Spoilers - Nicola Peltz Confirmed Return

There haven't been many reports detailing the return of A&E's hit drama-thriller TV series "Bates Motel" for its third season. However, rumors of former cast member Nicola Peltz returning to White Pine Bay were confirmed by the actress herself.

The 19-year-old "Transformers: Age of Extinction" star will reprise her role as Bradley Martin, the attractive and popular classmate of Freddie Highmore's Norman Bates. She fled town with the help of the young Bates and hid in nearby state after killing his father's murderer.

"I'm going back on 'Bates [Motel],' so I'm excited about that," she told We Got This Covered.

Peltz's reprisal was planned by executive producers Carlton Cuse and Kerry Ehrin, who when asked at the 2014 ATX Television Festival in Austin, Texas, told the reporters that they would love Peltz to appear once again in the show. The only thing that put a hiccup in the plans was her tight schedule.

It still wasn't clear how Bradley will be reintroduced in the upcoming season of 'Bates Motel' given that the murder she'd done has caused so much trouble in town.

Meanwhile, fans have been asking what to expect in the forthcoming chapter of the show. According to Highmore "Bates Motel" will eventually move closer into the "Psycho" plot.

"I'm not sure [Norma and Norman would] survive without each other, really, or he'd certainly go mad. I guess we see that in 'Psycho.' That's the ultimate sort of end, that Norma's no longer there," the actor said, referring to the speculations whether or not his character will "dangerous and evil" when the show returns.

"I guess people don't want to believe that that's going to have to be the end one day. You want a different outcome and you keep hoping that it will be, but I don't think it will," he added.

"Bates Motel" season 3 is expected to premiere its first episode in 2015.
