Netflix Renews “The Kominsky Method” For Season 2

Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin in "The Kominsky Method"

It’s been only two months since Netflix started streaming The Kominsky Method, but this show already has two Golden Globes under its belt. It was just a matter of time before it was renewed for the second season, and that moment finally came.

The Kominsky Method centers on a washed up actor Sandy Kominsky, who runs an acting studio, and his long-time agent Norman. It stars Hollywood veterans Michael Douglas and Alan Arkin, who couldn’t say no to this Netflix comedy after Chuck Lorre gave them a call.

Douglas jumped on board after reading the script, despite the fact he hasn’t played a lead on TV in four decades. This project provided him with an opportunity to return to the small screen in a meaningful and steady way, and he embraced it with open arms.

“I hadn’t seen writing like this in a feature film. I thought, this is just a great opportunity to work with the great comedy stuff and learn a little more about timing. I’m always a sucker susceptible to a good comedy,” explained Douglas.
