The second season of Starz’s Blindspotting is coming April 14, and first-look images from the new season suggest more comedic twists and turns.
The series stars Jasmine Cephas Jones, Rafael Casal and Helen Hunt in a story about a woman who must move in with her partner’s mother after he gets taken to jail. According to the official description:
Blindspotting centers on Ashley (Jones), who was nipping at the heels of a middle-class life in Oakland until Miles (Casal), her partner of 12 years and father of their son, Sean (Atticus Woodward) was suddenly incarcerated, leaving her to navigate a chaotic life when she is forced to move in with Miles’s mother, Rainey (Hunt), and sister, Trish (Jaylen Barron).
Created and executive produced by Casal and Daveed Diggs, with Casal as showrunner and director of four episodes, the series has been a critical favorite, debuting with a rare 100 percent fresh rating from Rotten Tomatoes.
