Glen Powell’s sports comedy series “Chad Powers” is set to premiere its second season on September 3 on Hulu, with availability also extending to Hulu on Disney+ for bundle subscribers. The new season follows the continuing exploits of Russ Holliday, the character Powell portrays under the assumed identity Chad Powers, as members of his team begin to notice inconsistencies in his behavior. Coach Hudson, portrayed by Steve Zahn, and Gerry, played by Colton Ryan, grow increasingly suspicious, though only the character Ricky, played by Perry Mattfeld, possesses knowledge of Russ’s true identity and becomes instrumental in preventing his deception from unraveling. The season chronicles the team’s journey toward the College Football Playoff.
The ensemble cast for Season 2 includes Quentin Plair as Coach Byrd, Wynn Everett as Tricia Yeager and Frankie Rodriguez as Danny. The series originates from an ESPN segment titled “Eli’s Places” and was developed collaboratively by Powell and writer Michael Waldron. Executive producers for the upcoming season include Eli Manning, along with representatives from Omaha Productions, ESPN, Powell’s production company Barnstorm Productions, and several other production entities involved in the show’s development.
Separately, Acorn TV announced the continuation of its mystery series “Art Detectives” with a two-part special scheduled for December and a full six-episode season planned for 2027. The crime drama centers on members of a Heritage Crime Unit investigating murders and thefts connected to the art world. Actor Stephen Moyer returns in his role as Detective Inspector Mick Palmer, with Nina Singh as his partner DC Shazia Malik. Larry Lamb will reprise his role as Mick’s father, a character involved in art forgery now incarcerated. Production for the new content is scheduled to commence in Belfast and Northern Ireland this July. The series was previously noted as Acorn TV’s most-watched new series premiere when Season 1 debuted in June 2025.
