The second season of Glen Powell's college football comedy series, "Chad Powers," premiered on Hulu on September 3. All six episodes of the new season are available for streaming on the platform.
Powell, known for his role in "Top Gun: Maverick," reprises his character Russ Holliday, a former college football quarterback who disguises himself as a walk-on player named Chad Powers to start over. The original character was first introduced in a sketch on Eli Manning's streaming series "Eli's Places."
In Season 2, Chad's future as a quarterback is uncertain as Russ finds it increasingly difficult to maintain the Chad persona. The situation is complicated by the fact that Ricky (Perry Mattfeld), Russ's love interest and an assistant coach for the South Georgia Catfish, is now aware of Chad's true identity. Her knowledge places Chad's fate in her hands.
The cast for Season 2 includes Glen Powell as Russ Holliday, Perry Mattfeld as Ricky Hudson, Quentin Plair as Coach Byrd, Wynn Everett as Tricia, Frankie Rodriguez as Danny Cruz, and Steve Zahn as Jake Hudson.
"Chad Powers" Season 2 episodes are released all at once, a departure from the weekly release schedule of the first season. A Hulu subscription is required to watch the series. The basic plan with ads costs $11.99 per month, while the ad-free version is $18.99 per month.
