Apple TV+ today released the official trailer and key art for Acapulco Season 2. The Spanish and English-language series stars an acclaimed, international cast led by SAG-Award winner Eugenio Derbez.
The ten-episode Acapulco Season 2 debuts Friday, October 21, 2022, on Apple TV+ with the first two episodes, followed by one new episode weekly every Friday through December 16, 2022.
Season two picks up right after season one, telling the story of 20-something Máximo Gallardo, whose dream comes true when he scores the job of a lifetime as a cabana boy at the hottest resort in Acapulco, Las Colinas.
In 1985, Máximo must contend with upheaval at the resort, unexpected problems at home, and a new love interest who just might rival the girl of his dreams.
Under Don Pablo’s guidance, he sets his eyes on one day running the entire Las Colinas operation by becoming Diane’s right-hand man.
Meanwhile, in the present day, Older Máximo returns to Acapulco to make peace with Don Pablo’s recent passing, and he is forced to confront some unfinished business young Máximo left behind.
Joining Derbez (“Older Máximo”) in the ten-episode second season are returning stars Enrique Arrizon (“Máximo”), Fernando Carsa (“Memo”), Damián Alcázar (“Don Pablo”), Camila Perez (“Julia”), Chord Overstreet (“Chad”), and Vanessa Bauche (“Nora”).
Regina Reynoso (“Sara”), Raphael Alejandro (“Hugo”), Jessica Collins (“Diane”), Rafael Cebrián (“Hector”), and Carlos Corona (“Esteban”) round out the cast.
