The second season of the Emmy Award-winning comedy series starring and executive produced by Emmy and Academy Award nominee Kristen Wiig and Academy Award and Emmy Award winner Laura Dern, reunites its star-studded ensemble cast with Allison Janney, Ricky Martin, Carol Burnett, Josh Lucas, Leslie Bibb, Amber Chardae Robinson, Mindy Cohn, Julia Duffy and Kaia Gerber, and welcomes new guest stars John Stamos, Tony Award winner Patti LuPone, Vicki Lawrence and Matt Rogers. The ensemble cast also includes Claudia Ferri, Jason Canela, Jordan Bridges, James Urbaniak, Roberto Sanchez, Rick Cosnett and Ryan Dorsey.
“Palm Royale” is a true underdog story that follows Maxine Dellacorte (Wiig) as she endeavors to find her footing in the cutthroat world of Palm Beach high society. As Maxine attempts to cross that impermeable line between the haves and the have-nots, “Palm Royale” asks the same question that still baffles us today: “How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to get what someone else has?” “Palm Royale” is a testament to every outsider fighting for their chance to truly belong.
In season two, Maxine is left a social pariah after a scandalous public breakdown. She’ll have to draw on her deep well of cleverness and cunning to prove, once and for all, that not only does she belong, but she just might have what it takes to rule this town. Along the way, she will uncover untold truths and finally understand what this town is truly built on ... secrets, lies and the occasional felony.
Hailing from Apple Studios, “Palm Royale” is written, executive produced and showrun by Abe Sylvia for Aunt Sylvia’s Moving Picture Company. The series is executive-produced by Dern and Jayme Lemons for Jaywalker Pictures, Wiig and Katie O’Connell Marsh.
The first season of “Palm Royale” received 11 Emmy Award nominations, including Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series (Wiig) and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series (Burnett), and won the Emmy Award for Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music. Catch up on the complete first season ahead of the season two premiere, now streaming globally on Apple TV.
