Apple TV Plus released the trailer for the second season of The Morning Show starring Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon.
The show left off with Alex (Aniston) and Bradley (Witherspoon) having a “Network” moment on live television after Alex ignored the sexual misconduct from her former co-anchor, Mitch (Steve Carell) who was protected for years by the head of the UBA network, Fred (Tom Irwin). The two ladies were cut off mid-rant and the final image was of Mitch sitting by himself with his face messed up after a fistfight he had with Chip (Mark Duplass), who was the fired, fall-guy executive producer of the show.
The trailer shows UBA head Cory (Billy Crudup) retrieving Alex from the snowy house she’s in exile in. Alex ends up returning and threatening Bradley’s ascent. Bradley and Alex are pitted against each other, trying to get power.
Returning for Season 2 are Carell, Crudup, Duplass, Irwin, Nestor Carbonell, Karen Pittman, Bel Powley, Desean Terry, Janina Gavankar, and Marcia Gay Harden.
Joining them are Greta Lee, Julianna Margulies, Ruairi O’Connor, Hasan Minhaj, Holland Taylor, Tara Karsian, and Valeria Golino.

The second season is set to launch on September 17, 2021. Watch the trailer below.
