Get Ready for More Laughs: Season 2 of Platonic Premieres August 6 on Apple TV+

Apple TV+ is keeping the laughs coming with the return of Platonic, a series co-created by Nick Stoller and Francesca Delbanco, featuring the comedic duo of Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne. As of August 6, 2025, fans can dive back into the misadventures of Rogen’s Will and Byrne’s Sylvia as they navigate the ups and downs of midlife friendship and challenges.

What to Expect in Season 2

After a two-year wait since the release of the Season 1 finale, viewers are in for a treat. On premiere day, two episodes will be available, followed by a new episode every Wednesday until the season concludes on October 1. This second season promises to explore deeper themes of work, weddings, and the complex nature of friendships as the characters face new hurdles in their lives.

The official logline offers a tantalizing look at what’s to come: “The duo tries their best to be each other’s rock — but sometimes rocks break things.” Such insight confirms that viewers can expect the humorous yet poignant moments that the show is known for, making Platonic a must-watch this summer.

A Stellar Cast Returns with Big Guest Star Power

In addition to Rogen and Byrne, Platonic Season 2 sees the return of fan favorites Luke Macfarlane as Sylvia’s husband Charlie and Carla Gallo as Katie. The show is also enhancing its comedic talent by bringing in guest stars from Saturday Night Live, including Aidy Bryant, Kyle Mooney, and Beck Bennett in undisclosed roles, hinting at even more laughs and surprises ahead.

The teaser trailer just released adds to the excitement. It reunites Rogen with his Freaks and Geeks colleague Sam McMurray, signaling a nostalgic touch for longtime fans. You can watch the teaser here:
