Apple TV Plus released a trailer for Season 2 of “Central Park,” premiering on June 25.
In the animated musical comedy series’ second season, the Tillerman family continues living in and caring for Manhattan’s biggest park.
Molly (now voiced by Emmy Raver-Lampman) navigates adolescence, Cole (Tituss Burgess) is embarrassed by a humiliating moment at school, Paige (Kathryn Hahn) continues to pursue the mayor’s corruption story and Owen (Leslie Odom Jr.) juggles managing the park, his staff and his family. Bitsy (Stanley Tucci) makes progress in her evil plot to claim Central Park as her own, with Helen (Daveed Diggs) by her side, still wondering whether she’s made it into Bitsy’s will. Meanwhile, the friendly, fumbling narrator Birdie (Josh Gad) guides the audience along the way.
“Central Park” is written and executive produced by Loren Bouchard alongside Gad and Nora Smith. Sanjay Shah, Halsted Sullivan, Janelle Momary-Neely, Jon Liebman, Marc Gurvitz and Robin Schwartz also executive produce. The series is produced for Apple by 20th Television.
