Apple TV+ won’t release its Jon Hamm-led drama Your Friends & Neighbors for several months, but it’s ready to get going on a second season of the series.
The streamer has renewed the drama for a second season, while also setting a premiere date and offering up a first look at the inaugural run. The nine-episode first season of Your Friends & Neighbors will premiere on April 11.
Hamm, who’s also an executive producer, stars as Andrew “Coop” Cooper, a hedge fund manager who’s recently been fired in disgrace from his job and is coming to terms with a recent divorce. He resorts to stealing from the homes of his neighbors in the exceedingly affluent Westmont Village, only to discover that the secrets and affairs hidden behind those wealthy facades might be more dangerous than he ever imagined.
“I’ve had this show in my head for years, and making it has been a dream come true,” creator and executive producer Jonathan Tropper (Warrior, Banshee, Apple’s See). “It’s been an absolute thrill partnering with Hamm, along with [fellow EPs] Connie Tavel and Craig Gillespie, to bring it to life. The support from everyone at Apple has been phenomenal, and the fact that they’ve ordered a second season before we aired our first is an incredible validation and a tribute to the work of this stellar cast, crew, writers, directors and producers who worked so hard to make this show what it is. We can’t wait for everyone to see it.”
Apple placed a series order for Your Friends & Neighbors in December 2023, marking Hamm’s first lead role in an ongoing since Mad Men ended in 2015. (Not that he has lacked for work in those years, with roles on Apple’s The Morning Show, an Emmy-nominated run on FX’s anthology Fargo, the just-debuted Landman on Paramount+ and a host of others). The series also stars Amanda Peet, Olivia Munn, Hoon Lee, Mark Tallman, Lena Hall, Aimee Carrero, Eunice Bae, Isabel Marie Gravitt and Donovan Colan.
Apple Studios, where Tropper has an overall deal, is producing Your Friends & Neighbors. Tropper, Hamm, Cavel and Gillespie are the executive producres. Gillespie directed the first two episodes; Stephanie Laing, Greg Yaitanes and Tropper also directed on season one.
