HBO has today announced the premiere date for the upcoming second season of its original comedy series Avenue 5.
The 8-episode second season will launch on Monday, October 10 at 10/9c.
Picking up five months after failing to reroute the vessel, the new season follows the crew as they struggle to lead, calm, control, and, if need be, hide from increasingly unruly passengers. On Earth, they're lauded as heroes, and in space, everyone can hear them scream.
The comedy stars Hugh Laurie, Josh Gad, Zach Woods, Rebecca Front, Suzy Nakamura, Lenora Crichlow, Nikki Amuka-Bird and Ethan Phillips.
Guest stars include Andy Buckley, Jessica St. Clair, Kyle Bornheimer, Adam PĂ„lsson, Daisy May Cooper, Lucy Punch, Leila Farzad, Jonathan Aris and Arsher Ali.
Armando Iannucci created the comedy. He executive produces with Kevin Loader and Will Smith. Keith Akushie, Jon Brown and Sean Gray serve as co-executive producers, with Ian Martin and Rose Heiney as supervising producers.
