The series, which My Chemical Romance frontrunner Gerard Way created and wrote, will continue forward with a ten-episode sophomore season.
The main cast from the first season, including Tom Hopper, Ellen Page, Emmy Raver-Mapman, Robert Sheehan, Aidan Gallagher, David Castañeda, and Justin H. Min, are expected to reprise their roles.
Deadline also reported that three newcomers, Marin Ireland, Yusuf Gatewood, and Ritu Arya, have also joined The Umbrella Academy Season 2. Showrunner Steve Blackman, who signed an overall deal with Netflix earlier this year, will return to helm the second season, too.
While it is still too early for Netflix to release a teaser video or official trailer, they did share a fun date announcement video to reveal the upcoming release date to fans. The video recreates a popular scene from the first season. It looks like the cast filmed their segments while in quarantine.
