After months of waiting, The Umbrella Academy season 2 will finally return to Netflix. Moreover, season 2 characters tease fans with their 1960s vibes.
Based on the comic literature of Gerard Way, The Umbrella Academy TV series is one of the biggest original shows on Netflix. The series, which debuted in February 2019, immediately became popular owing to its talented cast, mind-bending scenes, and stunning soundtracks. Due to its success, the series came to a swift renewal status.
The Umbrella Academy season 1 ended with a cliffhanger. As expected, the apocalypse destroyed the world, but the Hargreeves siblings time-traveled to the past. Having escaped the apocalypse, the Hargreeves siblings find themselves in the 1960s.

Right before the renewal of the series, Showrunner Steve Blackman was vague about the whereabouts of the siblings. He said:
“If we get a second season, we’ll see where they end up.”
The Netflix synopsis read:
“Five warned his family (so, so many times) that using his powers to escape from Vanya’s 2019 apocalypse was risky. Well, he was right – the time jump scatters the siblings in time in and around Dallas, Texas. Over three years. Starting in 1960. Some, having been stuck in the past for years, have built lives and moved on, certain they’re the only ones who survived.
Number Five uses his power to bring his siblings in Dallas in 1960. However, as Five’s power is not yet fully developed, the team gets split up and arrives in Dallas at different points in time. Each of the siblings is now well-adapted and have already built their lives. Thus, the siblings must find their way to reunite to prevent the apocalypse from happening.”
Is there a trailer for The Umbrella Academy season 2?
Unfortunately, there is no trailer yet for The Umbrella Academy season 2. However, the recent photos tell so much of what will happen in the second season.
The series’ official Twitter account posted several photos of all the characters. Not only that, but new enemies are also rising to destroy the siblings in the forthcoming episodes.
