Pack your bags, because we're hitting the road in Hacks season two.
Oh and mark your calendars for May 12—that's the date season two will finally premiere!
HBO Max released a first look at the sophomore season of the hit dramedy, starring Emmy winner Jean Smart and Hannah Einbinder, on April 14. The teaser shows Las Vegas comedian Deborah Vance (Smart) and her assistant writer Ava (Einbinder) as they crisscross the country preparing material for Vance's new stand-up act.
Although the preview is brief, it's jam-packed with dramatic scenes. In one clip, Deborah throws things at Ava in a store, carelessly breaking merchandise as the younger comedian dodges flying objects. The next scene shows the two laughing over a drink though, so it seems like their mentorship remains as mercurial as it was in season one.
Carl Clemons-Hopkins, Kaitlin Olson, Meg Stalter and more return for the sophomore season, along with new guest stars Laurie Metcalf, Martha Kelly, Ming-Na Wen, Susie Essman, Margaret Cho and Devon Sawa.
The series was created by Emmy winners Paul W. Downs, Lucia Aniello and Jen Statsky. Downs previously spoke to E! News about what's to come in season two, teasing that Deborah and Ava will get "out of their comfort zone" on the road—but they're not completely saying goodbye to Sin City, even if Deborah has lost her residency. "Vegas is Deborah's home base," he explained. "It is where she feels safest. It is this lawless desert oasis where she's built her fortress up around her, so we're going to definitely see that."
Find out what else the future has in store for Deborah and Ava when the first two episodes of Hacks premiere May 12 on HBO Max.
