Paradise Season 2 Debuts Feb. 23 After L.A. Premiere as Fogelman Teases Bigger World

The creator calls the outside-world shift a long-planned move powered by an all-Los Angeles shoot to support local crews.

Overview

  • Hulu staged a red-carpet event at the Paramount Theatre in Los Angeles on Feb. 18 that included a screening of the premiere episode, “Graceland.”
  • The new season arrives on Hulu on Feb. 23 with a three-episode drop followed by weekly releases.
  • Dan Fogelman said the plan to leave the bunker and expand the series’ scope was set from the show’s inception, describing Season 2 as a different, bigger chapter.
  • Fogelman highlighted the decision to film entirely in Los Angeles, thanking studio and network leaders for backing a costly, original series to keep local crews working.
  • Shailene Woodley and Thomas Doherty join returning leads Sterling K. Brown and Julianne Nicholson, with James Marsden in a recurring role, as the story follows Xavier into the outside world and the bunker confronts fresh revelations.
