Donald Glover: Atlanta Season 3 looks like a parody of 2020, but we wrote it in 2019

“It’s so frustrating. I’m gonna try and get FX to put a disclaimer before (the episodes),” Glover joked during the TV press tour. “It’s like we wrote all of this in 2019. A lot of this stuff is gonna seem like a parody of stuff that happened, but we actually prophesied most of the sh*t in 2020. The world is extremely predictable. We really just knew how a lot of this stuff was gonna pan out.” Meanwhile, Glover says ending Atlanta after Season 4 had nothing to do with his Amazon deal: "Death is natural," he said. “I feel like when the conditions are right for something, they happen, and when the conditions aren’t right, they don’t happen. I don’t feel any longevity. Because then things start to get weird. The story was always supposed to be what it was. And the story, it really was us. Everybody in that writers’ room, everybody on set. It really was what we were going through and what we talked about. … I think it ends perfectly.”
