SundanceTV has released a trailer for the upcoming season of State of the Union, which can be seen below. The Emmy-winning short-form series returns with a fresh couple of characters who are dealing with marital problems.
It will be broadcast over the course of ten evenings, with each episode directed by Stephen Frears consisting of a quick but in-depth 10-minute dialogue. In contrast to season 1, which focused on the relationship between Chris O’Dowd and Rosamund Pike, season 2 chronicles the relationship between Brendan Gleeson and Patricia Clarkson.
When Will the Second Season of Sundancetv’s ‘state of the Union’ Premiere?
The next season will begin on Monday, February 14, which is Valentine’s Day, and will run for eight weeks. AMC+ and Sundance Now provide fans the opportunity to watch the complete series in one sitting. Take a look at the new trailer, which is embedded below:

Esco Jouley enters the cast as a non-binary barista who is unconventional, invigorating and contributes to Scott’s worldview by introducing him to new experiences. The show’s premise would be significantly weaker without their character’s contribution of important comic relief.
Season 2 of ‘state of the Union’: Synopsis
The couple’s daughter Ellen is described as Clark’s “traditional, self-made,” and “liberal campaigning” wife by her husband. For better or worse, she now has the language and resources to discover who she actually is in the year 2022, while he still feels as though the world is passing him by. In the first episode, Nick Hornby (the series’ writer) appears to be studying the language of the year 2022 for himself.
There isn’t much more to say about the Baby Boomer generation’s trouble with pronouns and pussycats than what has already been said (literally).

Scott and Ellen have 30 years of marriage and baggage to ponder as they weigh the advantages and disadvantages of a probable divorce. Their sessions are held above a hipster coffee shop in Connecticut.
As he demonstrated in the first season, Hornby’s writing is still razor-sharp, but even the sharpest of minds may fall prey to generational traps. The show’s first season was nominated for three Emmys in 2019, including Outstanding Short Form Comedy and Outstanding Short Form Drama Series.
The effect of Gleeson and Clarkson’s performances on the show cannot be overstated, even if the second season lacks the obvious attraction and hilarity of the first.
