Glen Powell has recently shared insights on the potential for a second season of his popular series, Chad Powers. In an exclusive interview, the actor expressed that fans interested in seeing another installment must “earn” it through their viewership and support.
Powell, who stars in the series alongside co-creator Michael Waldron, emphasized the importance of spreading the word about the show. He stated, “Well, I think you gotta just tell everybody to watch Season 1 — that’s how the world works. You gotta get enough eyeballs on Season 1 to get a Season 2.” The actor’s enthusiasm was palpable as he continued, “You gotta earn your championship, man; you gotta earn it,” urging fans to rally support.
Currently, the fate of Chad Powers Season 2 hangs in the balance, with the creators prepared with a strong vision for the storyline’s continuation. Powell revealed, “We have a really strong idea of what we’d want to do in Season 2 and 3. We have an amazing arc to the whole journey, but you know that that’s up to the people to decide.”
Despite no official announcement from Hulu on the renewal, the buzz around the show is palpable. Actor Steve Zahn, who is part of the series, remarked, “We have to have another season,” underscoring the creative team’s eagerness to expand the universe of the series. Powell also noted that there are deeper narratives yet to explore, signifying that a second season could offer more than just comedic entertainment.
Chad Powers, inspired by Eli Manning’s original sketch from his series Eli’s Places, follows the journey of Russ Holliday, portrayed by Powell, as he navigates redemption after a fall from grace in the world of football. The show’s whimsical nature combined with heartfelt storytelling has struck a chord with viewers, making its continuation a hopeful prospect for fans.
As it stands, viewers can enjoy the first season of Chad Powers streaming on Hulu, while actively promoting it could play a pivotal role in securing a second season. The actors and creators await the audience’s response, hopeful for the chance to return to this beloved narrative.
