When will Platonic Season 2 release on Apple TV? Details explored

Remember those best friends who always seemed one breakdown away from a breakthrough? They’re back! Platonic, the Apple TV+ comedy starring Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne, is returning with a hilarious and heartfelt Season 2. If you loved watching two chaotic yet charming middle-aged besties navigate adulthood’s weird curveballs, get ready to dive back in.

Let’s unpack everything you need to know, from the premiere date to what drama (and laughs) await in this new chapter.

The big date? Wednesday, August 6, 2025.

Apple TV+ is starting strong with two new episodes right away. After that, it’s one episode each week, with the final one airing on October 1.

The usual drop time for Apple TV+ shows is around 12 AM PT / 3 AM ET, so mark your clocks (or just binge it when you wake up — we won’t judge!).

You’ll need an Apple TV+ subscription to catch Season 2. But the good news? It’s available globally, so fans around the world can follow Will and Sylvia’s misadventures at the same time.

If you haven’t subscribed yet, there’s usually a 7-day free trial, which gives you enough time to test the waters (or binge the first season again!).

This time around, the chaos gets even more... relatable. Season 2 explores what it means to be middle-aged and still figuring it out. You know, the stage where you have a job, maybe a family, but still find yourself crying in your car, or laughing over spilled wine.

Sylvia and Will face new challenges: workplace tension, friends getting married, and romantic partners going through emotional spirals. But their friendship? Still the solid (if slightly unstable) rock holding them together.

Trailer breakdown

The trailer’s tagline says it all: “Keep an Eye Out. For Season 2. August 6.” And guess what? That eye reference becomes very literal.

In a hilarious scene, Will tries to golf (at Sylvia’s urging), but things go south fast. He accidentally smacks a ball right into his buddy’s eye. Cue chaos, a bloodied friend, and a high-speed golf cart getaway with Will yelling, “Please go faster!”

That moment sets the tone—messy, wild, but grounded in friendship.

Will (played by Rogen) is still trying to “get his life together,” which includes attempting new things like golf (badly), handling romance, and not losing his mind.

Sylvia (Byrne), on the other hand, juggles family life and personal crises with the finesse of a juggler on a tightrope.

Both deal with messy partners, weird jobs, and more weddings than they’d like to attend. But through all the emotional whirlwinds, they lean on each other—even when leaning turns into falling.

What to expect from Platonic Season 2: Release date, plot, and returning chemistry

The show is created, directed, and co-written by the dynamic pair of Nick Stoller and Francesca Delbanco.

They’re the same geniuses behind hits like Neighbors and Friends from College, so expect sharp writing and laugh-out-loud moments.

Filming for Season 2 wrapped earlier this year, and according to behind-the-scenes peeks, the cast had a blast. The creators promise even more “controlled chaos” and heart than the first season.

With its mix of improvisation and scripted sharpness, you’ll get comedy that feels fresh, raw, and unpredictable.

Season 1 introduced us to Will and Sylvia, two ex-besties who reconnect in midlife and immediately reignite their chaotic friendship.

From bar nights to brutally honest therapy sessions, the season was a masterclass in showing how platonic relationships can be just as intense as romantic ones.

Season 2 will have 10 episodes in total. Each one runs around 30–35 minutes, making them perfect for a quick evening watch or a weekend binge.

Most fans are just thrilled the duo is back—and praying they don’t totally destroy each other (again).

It’s not just about laughs. Platonic nails the tricky art of blending humor with heart. Rogen and Byrne have electric chemistry, and their banter feels like two real-life friends accidentally filming a TV show.

Add in themes like identity, purpose, and aging with style—or without it—and you get something truly special.

So far, Apple TV+ hasn’t confirmed a Season 3. But with the buzz around the show, there’s a very good chance we’ll see more of this lovable duo.

The ending of Season 2 might give us a clue, so watch closely!

You’ll want to jump into Season 2 ready for all the inside jokes and callbacks.

Season 2 of Platonic is shaping up to be everything fans hoped for—and more.

With new drama, deeper emotions, and the same unbeatable chemistry between Will and Sylvia, August 6 can’t come soon enough.

So grab your popcorn, clear your Wednesday nights, and prepare for a wild, warm, and witty ride.
