Season 3 of Ray Donovan is going to be released soon and while little has been revealed about the plot we are rooting for some on-screen romance between Ray (Liev Schreiber) and new character Paige (Katie Holmes).

Season 3 Will Not Be About The Donovan Family   

Ray and Abby's (Paula Malcomson) marriage is far from normal and they both have ventured to form other romantic liasons, it doesn't seem like their commitment will hold water in the third chapter either. The Daily Mail revealed that Holmes will be playing the part of Paige, "wealthy and shrewd businesswoman who uses the 'fixer' services provided" by Ray. Paige will be the daughter of another new character, Andrew, who is a moneyed Hollywood producer.

While a divorce between Ray and Abby isn't on the card, the affairs might not be going anywhere.

In a recent interview with Variety, Schreiber dished about the fate of Ray and Abby's marriage, Schreiber seemed rather optimistic, not in the way that things would be hunky dory, but at least that the couple would stick it out through thick and thin. The questions seems pertinent as Ray and Abby's marriage was really tested in the second season, and both were having affairs on the side.

"Ray is the kind of person who would die for his family," Schreiber said. "I don't know that his marriage can ever truly be over. As bad as it gets, as bad as he behaves, he'll never be able to separate himself from it. Whether or not they're living under the same roof, he'll always be married to Abby."

Let us know what you think in the comments section. Do you think Ray and Paige could be romantically linked up in the next season?

Season 3 of Ray Donovan will premiere on July 12 at 9 pm on Showtime.
