- Powers of Chad was renewed for season 2
- Hulu’s sports comedy already has “a beginning, middle and end in mind.”
- A release window has not yet been confirmed
Spoilers follow for the end of Powers of Chad season 1.
If you enjoyed Powers of Chad season 1, I bring good news. Hulu (and Disney+ internationally) has renewed the Glen Powell-led sports comedy, so you can breathe a sigh of relief afterwards that cliffhanger.
The first season introduced us to Russ Holliday, a disgraced football player who gets a second chance by going undercover under the name Chad Powers. In the finale, however, Chad’s true identity is revealed, but not to everyone.
This revelation sets the course for the next episodes. Powell told The Hollywood Reporter that there was a lot more story to explore about Russ/Chad and that it had been planned from the beginning.
“The reality is there are a lot more stories to tell,” he said. “There was a build from the beginning for an arc of what the catfish would look like. So we have a beginning, middle and end in mind.”
“But people need to listen and show us that they want to see it. We believe in this show. I believe we have a hit show here and the whole world is really going to love it. If we get the privilege of doing a second season, we have some fun things in mind.”
What could we see in season 2 of Chad Powers?
Look on it
Now that Powers of Chad has been renewed, there is an opportunity to delve deeper into his character and his struggles to keep up appearances. After all, protecting one’s true identity from being revealed is the first thing to do.
But when you’re in the spotlight, that’s no easy task, and series creator Michael Waldron told TechRadar: “The point we’re making is [with the series] It’s that it’s going to get harder from here, and it’s not going to be easy to do this and see it through to the end.”
He added that the series has a lot to do with identity and self-acceptance, saying, “I continue to be interested in these people who are ostensibly lionized and find themselves put in really difficult situations, and have to struggle with their identity and figure out who they really are.”
I would definitely be interested to see how Russ might fare if his deception was discovered by more people. Is it possible for him to redeem himself, or would that mean he will never be able to play again?
I’ll be patiently waiting for Season 2 to arrive to see how big this web of lies can get, and of course, I’m also waiting for more laugh-out-loud moments.
