Season 3 is set to run for 12 episodes, which is set to release in July 2015. What is important to take into consideration is that Ann Biderman, the writer of the series up until now also recently stepped down.
This will definitely impact the series in someway, as Biderman's distinctive imprint will be missing from the Showtime series. So on some level, fans might be in for a different take on things as, at the end of the day, the writing defines any show.

But the transition will be easy, the writer and producer won't be completely vanishing, though, she will continue with Ray Donovan in the role of a creative consultant.
The producers are now in talks with writer and executive producer David Hollander to take Biderman's position.
In a recent interview Liev Schrieber, who plays the titular role on Ray Donovan, spoke about working on the show and dished a bit about what fans can expect from season 3.
Speaking to Variety, the actor answered questions about his experience playing Ray and what his hopes for his character were.
When asked about the fate of his and Abby's (Paula Malcolmson) marriage, Schreiber seemed rather optimistic, not in the way that things would be hunky dory, but at least that the couple would stick 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."
Speaking to E!Online, and stated that Abby will be more defined in her role as the head of the family in the next chapter of the Showtime series.
"There will be more of the same madness but Abby sort of starts to have her own agenda in a really big way because we can't have her nagging Ray any longer," Malcomson said. "I think she's going to take care of family matters and Ray takes care of the business. So we get to see more of the matriarch."
In the same interview she also hinted at the fact that her boyfriend, Jim (Brian Geraghty), whom she had an affair with in season 2, might also return.
The season 2 finale of Ray Donovan aired on Sunday, September 27 at 8 pm ET/PT on Showtime.
