Mo Season 2 Premiere Date and First Look
Netflix has announced that Mo Season 2 will debut on the streaming service on January 30, 2025. The award-winning comedy series comes from Netflix and A24.
In Mo Season 2, Mo Najjar straddles the line between two cultures, three languages and a ton of bull**** as a Palestinian on the path to U.S. citizenship. The new episodes find Mo stranded across the border and desperate to get back to Houston before his family’s asylum hearing.
As a stateless refugee without a passport, Mo is going to need all the hustle and charm he can muster. Little does he know that the journey home is just the start of his troubles, and there’s a new guy in town ready to steal both his longtime love Maria and his falafel taco recipe.
Funny, poignant, and topical, the series is created and executive produced by comedians Mo Amer (Black Adam, Mohammed in Texas) and Ramy Youssef (Poor Things, Ramy). The final season is executive produced by A24, Harris Danow (Daisy Jones & The Six, Dead to Me) and returning director Solvan “Slick” Naim (Power, It’s Bruno!).
“I’m thankful to continue to tell a universal story of struggle that relates to so many refugees and millions of under-represented humans trying to be seen around the globe,” said co-creator, executive producer and star Mo Amer previously.
Amer added he was also thankful “to be able to bring the people who loved and rooted for Mo Najjar along for the ride as we close this chapter of his story.”
Mo has won the Gotham Award for Breakthrough Television Under 40 Minutes and was honored at the 2023 American Film Institute Awards. Amer himself was nominated for a 2023 Independent Spirit Award.
Filmed in Houston, Texas, the second season will consist of eight 30-minute episodes. In addition to Mohammed “Mo” Amer, the cast includes Teresa Ruiz, Farah Bsieso, Omar Elba, Tobe Nwigwe, Simon Rex and Johanna Braddy.
