Picking up after the explosive events of The Morning Show Season 1, The Morning Show Season 2 found The Morning Show team emerging from the wreckage of Alex (Aniston) and Bradley’s (Witherspoon) actions, to a new UBA and a world in flux, where identity is everything and the chasm between who we present as and who we really are comes into play.
Along with Aniston and Witherspoon, the star-studded cast for the sophomore run was led by Billy Crudup, Mark Duplass, Nestor Carbonell, Karen Pittman, Bel Powley, Desean Terry, Janina Gavankar, Tom Irwin, and Marcia Gay Harden.
New additions included Greta Lee, Ruairi O’Connor, Hasan Minhaj, Holland Taylor, Tara Karsian, Valeria Golin, and Julianna Margulies.
The second season received Emmy Award nominations for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series, Reese Witherspoon, Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series, Billy Crudup, who also won the award for season one.
It also received a nomination for Outstanding Guest Actress in a Drama Series, Marcia Gay Harden.
In its first season, Crudup’s performance as Corey Ellison earned an Emmy win in the Supporting Actor in a Drama Series category, in addition to a Critics Choice Award.
Aniston’s powerful performance as Alex Levy, earned a SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series.
The series also received nominations from the Television Critics Association for Outstanding New Program and a TV Choice Award for Best New Drama.
The renewal comes at a pivotal time for Apple TV+.
