A DECADE OF LIES EXPOSED.
LINCOLN YOUNES AND DANIELLE CORMACK JOIN LUKE ARNOLD AND BELLA HEATHCOTE IN THE STAN ORIGINAL "SCRUBLANDS: TRUST"
Based on Chris Hammer's best-selling novel Trust, Luke Arnold and Bella Heathcote reprise their roles in the smash-hit crime drama.
July 17 2026 - Stan and the 9Network today released first look images for the third season of the Stan Original Scrublands, now filming in Sydney. Luke Arnold (Black Sails) and Bella Heathcote (Pieces of Her) reprise their roles, this time chasing corruption and conspiracy through Sydney's dark underbelly and the spectacular vistas of the Blue Mountains. Scrublands: Trust is an Easy Tiger production with support from Screen NSW.
Based on the best-selling novel Trust by Chris Hammer, the sequel to Scrublands and Silver, the third season will also star Lincoln Younes (Last King of the Cross), and Danielle Cormack (Wentworth). In addition, Sarah Roberts (Home and Away) will return as Beth Ramachandran, and Nicholas Bell (Bay of Fires) as Max Fuller.
The four-part season jumps back a decade to unravel a devastating secret. Mandy Bond (Heathcote) thought she'd dealt with her past, but an old name has come back to haunt her: Tom Molloy (Younes). The man who stole $15 million before vanishing, the fiancé she never told Martin about. His body has been found and with it emerge secrets Mandy is desperate to keep hidden.
Meanwhile her partner, investigative reporter Martin Scarsden (Arnold), is rocked when his long-time mentor, Max Fuller (Bell), apparently suicides mere hours after asking Martin for help on a big story. Martin picks up where Max left off, his search leading him through the back lanes of Sydney, the homes of the rich and powerful, and headlong into a bloody shoot-out in the depths of the Blue Mountains. The closer Martin gets to answers, the more risks he'll have to take, as killers-for-hire, corrupt developers and powerful figures stand in between him and the truth. But until Mandy trusts Martin with all the secrets of her past, the truth will elude him, and by the time it comes to light, will it be too late?
