Season 2 of Solar Opposites, Hulu's show co-created by Rick & Morty's Justin Roiland and Mike McMahan, will be hitting the streaming service with eight new episodes on March 26. This is obviously great news for Solar Opposite fans, but also exciting news for Rick & Morty fans--a show notorious for long delays between seasons, made all the more kinda frustrating knowing there are dozens on their way in the coming years. Check out the expletive-laden trailer for Solar Opposites' second season below.
Based on the trailer, Season 2 is a bit of a reset on Season 1--centered around a team of four aliens who escape their exploding home world only to crash land into suburban America, and their efforts to leave Earth have been thwarted, or at least temporarily delayed. The small squad are evenly split on whether Earth is great--"Korvo (Justin Roiland) and Yumyulack (Sean Giambrone) only see the pollution, crass consumerism, and human frailty while Terry (Thomas Middleditch) and Jesse (Mary Mack) love humans and all their TV, junk food, and fun stuff."
Roiland has otherwise been keeping busy with other projects, including the now homeless Quibi series Gloop World (which might get snatched up by Roku in an acquisition) and his game development studio Squanch Games (which in 2019 released Trover Saves the Universe).
Solar Opposites is executive produced by Roiland, McMahan, and Josh Bycel.
