Future Man Season 2 Feels Like Waterworld and Mad Max

on October 20, 2018 by marcie Comments Off

During New York Comic Con 2018, we spoke with Josh Hutcherson about season 2 of Future Man and learned more about some of the show’s unique influences, what movies it borrows from, and what this universe’s version of the future looks and feels like. In season 2, Josh, Tiger, and Wolf are thrust into the year 2162, where society is broken down into two factions: the Mons (“the haves”) and the Nags (“the have nots”), which borrows a stylistically demented vision of the future from movies like Mad Max and Waterworld. Hutcherson said, “There’s a bit of a Waterworld kind of element to it in the Nag. And Mad Max is one that we kind of used a lot in the Nag world. It’s very dirty and dusty and you feel like there’s no water.” He then added that Josh and Wolf are stuck in this society, and, incidentally, “Wolf has found his new home inside the Nag with this cluster family with, like, six husbands and wives; and there’s great satire and political commentary threaded throughout.”

Season 2 of Future Man will be available for streaming on Hulu in 2019.

on October 14, 2018 by marcie Comments Off

The cast looked ahead to what they were looking forward to during the upcoming season. “I’m happy the show called Future Man is finally in the future!” Josh mused. He also menttioned that he likes having a different journey this season: “He doesn’t have a lot of those nice ‘at home’ moments.”

Producer/Creator Evan Goldberg revealed that there would be a plethora of guest stars this year, including Timothy Simons (Veep), Will Forte (Last Man on Earth), Kristen Schall (Bob’s Burgers), Kerri Kenny (Reno 911), and some guy named Seth Rogan (co-creator of Future Man).

The cast obviously had a lot of fun on stage talking about their show. It’s that love and passion that makes Future Man’s… future look so bright.

Future Man debuted its Season 2 premiere at New York Comic Con

on October 7, 2018 by marcie Comments Off

fter debuting in November 2017, the Hulu original series Future Man is ready to return and, somehow, get even weirder the second time around. The cast and creative crew of the series came to New York Comic Con 2018 to give fans the first look at the new season, including the world premiere of the first new episode of the show.

Rather quickly, it becomes apparent that the future Josh Futterman (Josh Hutcherson) thought he saved in Season 1 is somehow even worse off. Now he’s expected to once again save the world with little more skills than being good at video games. Now, though, Futterman has the experience to actually change the timeline… maybe. In the meantime, he will urinate on himself, be constantly humiliated, and simply attempt not to die in horrible ways.

After the Season 2 premiere episode was shown, the first trailer for the new episodes was revealed, giving even more of an idea of what’s to come. In the new and terrible future, Wolf (Derek Wilson) is married to five people as they raise a child together–which is played as being completely normal in whatever version of reality they’ve ended up in–while Tiger’s (Eliza Coupe) status as a biotic, which was revealed in the Season 1 finale, is going to cause quite a strain on the team. Fans will also be introduced to other Tiger biotics with a variety of personalities, which should prove very entertaining. Additionally, Coupe said in the panel that “my voice is different,” when it comes to the alternate Tigers, including one that is rather high-pitched.

The main drive of the new season sees the future divided between two groups, one of which wants to relocate half of the future’s population to Mars. The other group, meanwhile, simply wants to be left alone. As this is all happening, a group called the Pointed Circle is plotting some kind of attack, which uses Futterman in some kind of key way that will definitely kill him. Unsurprisingly, he’s on the run because of this.

For the second season of Future Man, which EW can exclusively reveal will drop Jan. 11 on Hulu, the show is going back to the future. “The first season was about two people coming from a horrible future and trying to prevent those events from happening through some time-travel antics,” says co-creator Kyle Hunter. “This season is about how our three main characters, who return to this future 2162 — they’re forced to live with the consequences of all their missions in the past.” First things first, that will involve telling us how Wolf (Derek Wilson) and Tiger (Eliza Coupe) get Josh (Josh Hutcherson) back to their future timeline.

Josh News Directing

Josh makes his directorial debut for High and Low

on September 30, 2018September 30, 2018 by marcie Comments Off

The Hunger Games star made his music video directorial debut on Friday with the release of “High & Low”—a new single by electronic music duo West Coast Massive and singer Brayton Bowman. The video plays back a woman’s night out in reverse. So, it starts with her in the water at a beach party, and it ends with the text message she received inviting her to go out.

As for how he became involved in the project, Hutcherson said his younger brother, Connor, manages West Coast Massive and that he’s actually a friend of the group members.

“They sent over their new EP,” he said. “And when I heard ‘High & Low,’ I thought it had a lot of potential to become a hit song, as well as a great music video. The lyrics combined with the melodies felt very cinematic to me, so I wrote out a treatment idea for the video. About three weeks later, we were on the ground making it.”

Still, taking on a directorial role comes with its own share of challenges.

“The hardest part about getting behind the camera is that almost all the creative decisions that need to be made are ultimately your responsibility…deciding which ideas are good and which aren’t,” the Peeta Mellark star said. “You are responsible for executing the idea and rolling with the punches. We were lucky and had a top-notch team but still…the pressure can be tough. But I really love it.”

In fact, it looks like he’s caught the directing bug.

“I’m looking at few different directing projects right now,” he said. “[Not] TV for now, just features. I’m completely hooked by directing. Growing up in this business and seeing all that goes into creating something has driven me to want to create my own. I loved getting to work on this video, and I’d be down for more music videos, as well. They’ve really made a comeback in recent years, and it’s a great place to test out ideas and push the boundaries.”

Josh Hutcherson stole our hearts as the artistic baker’s son Peeta Mellark. After the series ended, he lent his voice to the animated 3D adventure Epic and picked up parts in various smaller projects, including James Franco’s comedy The Disaster Artist and Steinbeck-inspired historical drama In Dubious Battle. Along the way, Josh even produced and starred in a few projects of his own. But currently, he’s killing it as the star of Hulu’s gamer boy adventure series, Future Man.

Why you need to watch Future Man

on September 12, 2018 by marcie Comments Off

Future Man brings together the comic powers of Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, the dashing charm of leading man Josh Hutcherson (The Hunger Games) and throws it all together into a sci-fi show with one major twist.

The hero in Future Man is a hapless janitor whose expertise is in clearing out toilets rather than saving the world. It is only when he is joined by computer games soldiers Tiger (Eliza Coupe) and Wolf (Derek Wilson) that he discovers he’s been put on earth to do more than scrub floors and play computer games in his bedroom.

Combining geek movie, TV and gaming references and R Rated humour, Future Man is a must-watch whether you’re a sci-fi fan or a newbie.

1. Josh Hutcherson is your new geek super hero

Josh Futturman is the classic down-on-his-luck geek, played with a lovable earnestness by Hutcherson.

A janitor at an STI laboratory, where the most eventful part of his day is clearing out another blocked toilet, Futterman feels like life hasn’t exactly given him a fair shot.

Still living at home with his parents, Futterman’s only form of escapism is computer games and in particular, the impossible-to-complete Biotic Wars.

However, Futturman’s life is transformed when he becomes the first human to complete the game and suddenly finds himself recruited by real life versions of the game’s heroes – Tiger and Wolf.

Hutcherson’s deadpan approach to the role has you rooting for the hapless and useless hero – who is suddenly thrust from plunging poo to saving the world as ‘Future Man’.

2. It’s from the guys behind Preacher, Superbad, Pineapple Express and Sausage Party

When you hear the names Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg you know what you’re going to get from a TV show or movie. Big laughs, filthy humour and outrageous moments that will make you jaw hit the floor.

They are also bona fide film and TV geeks, trading on the show’s similarities to classic computer games and films with pointed gags about Back to the Future and The Last Starfighter in the opening episodes.

Future Man does for computer game geeks what Preacher achieved for comic book fans. In both instances, Rogen and Goldberg understand the audience because they are the fans and they deliver the humour with the same love and passion you’d expect.

3. This is no ordinary sci-fi show

From nerdy arguments about the value of Super Mario and the sexiest computer game characters to American Pie-esque embarrassing moments for Futturman when he first meets his crush Tiger, this is poles apart from your average science fiction series.

Don’t worry if you’ve never seen an episode of Battlestar Galactica or if you’re never play computer games, Future Man leans heavily on the humour and just slices in the geek gags along the way for fans of the genre.

Catch the new series on Mondays at 10pm on SYFY from September 10th – BT TV channel 319.

on August 29, 2018August 29, 2018 by marcie Comments Off

Hulu’s comedy ‘Future Man’ is adding three new recurring roles for its second season. The ‘Last Starfighter’-esque series, which is executive produced by Seth Rogan and Evan Goldberg, stars Josh Hutcherson as janitor/gamer Josh Futterman, who beats his favorite video game, ‘Biotic Wars’, only for the games two main characters, Tiger (Eliza Coupe) and Wolf (Derek Wilson) to materialize and recruit him to save the world from the real Biotic Wars.

The second season will welcome Tim Johnson Jr., Jade Catta-Preta and Timothy Horner in recurring roles. Johnson portrays Jimmy, a former child star who becomes the first boy on Mars. Catta-Preta’s character is named Level while Horner plays Lathe. Both are described as “integral member[s] of a unique family group that Wolf becomes a part of thanks to a case of mistaken identity.” In June, Shaun Brown was announced as being cast in the recurring role of Hatchet, followed by Sara Amini and Rati Gupta in July, as Thimble and Rake.
