With the announcement that Future Man season 2 would indeed be happening, Hulu has given fans reassurance that the many unresolved questions left unanswered in the season 1 finale will be able to see a possible resolution and further development. Hulu made the announcement of the show’s renewal at the TCA Winter Press Tour in January.
The time travel comedy from creators Ariel Shaffir and Kyle Hunter of Sausage Party fame followed the hapless janitor, Josh Futturman (Josh Hutcherson), as he attempted to fulfull his destiny as the savior of the future in a surprisingly complex mission that involves changing the past. With the fate of his guides from the future, Wolf and Tiger (Derek Wilson and Eliza Coupe), hanging in the balance, the renewal was welcome news to fans who have enjoyed the irreverent style of the adventure series.
Shaffir acknowledges that Hulu has totally been behind Future Man as they’ve supported the writers’ vision of an over-the-top comedy mixed with elements of science fiction and pop culture. “I don’t think there was a single thing that I can recall where they heard an idea and they said that it was over the line or too much for them,” Shaffir said of the streaming network in an earlier interview with Den of Geek. “If anything, they pushed us to be as daring as we wanted to be, so Hulu was fantastic.”
Future Man is produced by showrunner Ben Karlin along with Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, whose brand of cinematic humor has lent itself well to television, as evidenced by the season two renewal.
Future Man Season 2 Release Date
Although no specific release date has been announced for Future Man season 2, all signs point to a late 2018, early 2019 winter premiere.
