Fans of Glen Powell’s hit show, Chad Powers, received exciting news as Hulu announced the renewal of the series for a second season on December 3, 2025. The announcement sparked enthusiasm across social media, with many fans expressing their joy and anticipation in the comments. One fan even remarked that this news was “the best Christmas gift ever!”
The renewal comes after a strong demand from viewers who have been eagerly asking, “SEASON 2 WHEN???” Powell, who plays the lead character, Russ Holliday, has already hinted at potential storylines for not just a second season but a third as well. In a prior interview, Powell shared insights about his collaborative efforts with series co-creator Michael Waldron, stating they have compelling ideas ready for both seasons.
Chad Powers is based on Eli Manning’s memorable Penn State sketch, where the NFL star, under disguises, tried out as a walk-on for the football team. In the series, Powell portrays Holliday, a once-promising quarterback whose life takes a turn after a critical fumble in a championship game. Years later, under the alias Chad Powers, he attempts to revive his dreams by trying out for the South Georgia Catfish.
The cast also includes Perry Mattfeld, Quentin Plair, Wynn Everett, Frankie Rodriguez, and Steve Zahn, with recurring roles from Toby Huss, Clayne Crawford, and Colton Ryan. While Hulu has not confirmed the exact timeline for production, fans remain hopeful for updates as Powell continues to juggle his busy Hollywood schedule. As anticipation builds for Season 2, both the cast and fans are ready for what promises to be an exciting continuation of Russ Holliday’s journey.
