Twilight Zone Season 2 Premiere Date, Trailer, And Episode Details

The CBS All Access show launches soon, and here are all the key details to know.

Comments

The CBS All Access original series The Twilight Zone is returning to the streaming service for Season 2 on June 25. And with that announcement comes a trailer for the upcoming episodes.

While specifics about plot for the individual episodes of the anthology series haven't been revealed, the trailer is unsettling--mainly because of that score. The Twilight Zone is a series focusing on the unimaginable, twisting ideas which many would consider "dreams" into "nightmares." It was Black Mirror before Black Mirror, without the technological bend to every story. Check out the trailer below.

The latest season of the show will feature quite a few well-known stars, including Billy Porter, Morena Baccarin, Topher Grace, Tony Hale, Jurnee Smollett, Joel McHale, and Chris Meloni. Many of these stars were announced at the beginning of May, along with the episode titles for Season 2. More recently, photos from Season 2 were revealed, but they still don't give much of an idea of what to expect, except Thomas Lennon is the host of some sort of variety show.
