Today, Apple TV+ revealed the trailer for the second season of its acclaimed, Emmy Award-nominated comedy Shrinking, starring Emmy Award nominee Jason Segel and multi-award winner Harrison Ford, and created by Emmy Award winners Bill Lawrence and Brett Goldstein, and Segel.
The 12-episode second season will premiere globally on Apple TV+, with the first two episodes on Wednesday, October 16, followed by one new episode weekly, every Wednesday until December 25, 2024.
The Shrinking series follows a grieving therapist (played by Segel) who starts to break the rules and tell his clients exactly what he thinks. Ignoring his training and ethics, he makes huge, tumultuous changes to people’s lives … including his own.
In addition to Jason Segel and Harrison Ford, Shrinking stars Emmy Award nominee Christa Miller, Emmy Award nominee Jessica Williams, Luke Tennie, Michael Urie, Lukita Maxwell, and Ted McGinley. Brett Goldstein will appear as a special guest star in season two.
The series is produced for Apple TV+ by Warner Bros. Television, where Lawrence and Goldstein are under overall deals and Lawrence’s Doozer Productions.
Lawrence, Segel, Goldstein, Neil Goldman, James Ponsoldt, Jeff Ingold, Liza Katzer, Randall Winston, Annie Mebane, Rachna Fruchbom, and Brian Gallivan all serve as executive producers.
The Shrinking series marks the third partnership for Apple, Lawrence, and Warner Bros. Television, alongside the multi-Emmy Award-winning, global phenomenon Ted Lasso and the new comedy series Bad Monkey.
The series also marks the second collaboration for Apple TV+ and Segel, following his starring role in the Apple Original Film The Sky is Everywhere.
