Will There Be A Platonic Season 2 And Can Will And Sylvia Get It Together?
“We’re so thrilled to have the opportunity to tell more stories with Seth, Rose, and everyone at Apple TV+ and Sony,” said co-creators Nick Stoller and Francesca Delbanco in a statement. “Season 2 spoiler alert: Will and Sylvia won’t get together this time either.” Something I hope people who may be just diving into “Platonic” for the first time realize is that when the show says this is a platonic relationship, they mean it. This isn’t a “When Harry Met Sally” situation where they will wind up together, they’re just friends! And adult friendships are real and important!
“Since the first episodes of ‘Platonic’ debuted on Apple TV+, global audiences have been charmed by the hilarious, wildly fun, and relatable friendship that Rose and Seth have brought to life through their charismatic performances,” said Matt Cherniss, head of programming for Apple TV+ in a statement. “We can’t wait for viewers to see these characters encounter even more comedic mayhem in season two thanks to our partners at Sony and to the brilliant minds of Francesca and Nick.”
“Platonic” is the second collaboration between Apple TV+ and Rose Byrne, who also stars in the equally criminally underrated “Physical.” It’s also the first collaboration between the streamer and Seth Rogen, who is going to star in ” an upcoming, untitled comedy series for Apple TV+ that he will write, direct and executive produce alongside Evan Goldberg,” according to a press release. Rogen and Byrne should undoubtedly join the ranks of all-time great comedy duos, and with another season of “Platonic” on the way, hopefully this is an incentive for more people to get on board.
You haven’t lived until you’ve seen Rose Byrne in a k-hole. Trust me.
