Hulu has set the US premiere date for Season 2 of comedy series Extraordinary.
In the first season of Extraordinary, 25-year-old Jen (Máiréad Tyers, Belfast) is the only person over the age of 18 who hasn’t developed a superpower. Feeling like she’s being left behind, and adrift in a big, confusing world of superpowered adults, Jen begins her journey to find her maybe-superpower armed with nothing but a bit of hope and a lot of desperation.
Season 2 picks up where Season 1 left off: following Jen on her journey as she enrolls as a client at the power clinic. Jen soon discovers that the process of finding her power isn’t as easy as she hoped, and things in the rest of her life aren’t smooth sailing, either. Ex-cat, now-boyfriend Jizzlord (Luke Rollason, Industry) has had an unexpected revelation about his past, while Kash (Bilal Hasna, Screw) and Carrie (Sofia Oxenham, Poldark) are attempting to be totally mature and dignified about their break-up, which isn’t easy when they’re still living under the same roof. It seems that Jen and the gang, with or without superpowers, are dealing with new levels of adulting and chaos that none of them are prepared for.
