FX has announced that acclaimed ballroom drama Pose will be premiering its second season on Tuesday, June 11th at 10:00. The network previously set a Sunday, June 9th premiere date for the series, but having to go against HBO’s Big Little Lies, TNT dramedy Claws, and the Tony Awards likely motivated the decision behind the change.
Pose season two begins in 1990 with the ballroom community gaining mainstream recognition through the release of Madonna’s “Vogue”. What should be an emotionally complicated but ultimately rewarding time causes the House of Evangelista to reevaluate its goals. Meanwhile, the worsening AIDS crisis causes an intense reaction from a group of activists.
Featuring the largest cast of transgender actors in series regular roles, as well as the largest recurring cast of LGBTQ actors ever for a scripted series, Pose stars Mj Rodriguez, Dominique Jackson, Indya Moore, Hailie Sahar, and Angelica Ross, who co-star alongside Billy Porter, Charlayne Woodard, Ryan Jamaal Swain, Dyllón Burnside, and Angel Bismark Curiel.
The series is part of a drama slate for FX that includes Snowfall, Taboo, Mayans MC, and Legion, as well as anthologies American Horror Story, American Crime Story, and Fargo.
