Less than one month after debuting on Netflix, the streaming service has announced thatBig Mouthhas been renewed for a second season. The 10-episode season was announced through a new video which revealed the second season will arrive on Netflix in 2018, although a specific premiere date was not yet given. The streaming service also released a second video today for thisNetflix original series, that sheds some light on the longtime friendship between series creators Nick Kroll and Andrew Goldberg.
The trailer features the main character, Andrew Glouberman, opening the pages of a magazine, which reveals that “Netflix Announces Season 2 for 2018,” along with a fake quote that claims thisBig Mouthis, “literally our best show ever,” from, “the legit actual CEO of Netflix. For realsies.” The brief video also features an appearance from the Hormone Monstress, voiced by Maya Rudolph, who will certainly be back in the second season, along with her male counterpart the Hormone Monster, voiced by Nick Kroll. But before the new season gets started, theNetflix animated serieswants fans to see how Nick Kroll and Andrew Goldberg became best friends as kids.
The second video is narrated by main voice actor John Mulaney, who takes fans through several childhood photos of Nick Kroll and Andrew Goldberg, while revealing that Nick’s older brother called them the “Asshole Buddies.” The video goes on to reveal that these best friends loved the New York Mets, cracking each other up and, “apparently, boob hats,” as evidenced in a bizarre photo. The video even includes footage of the first time they performed comedy together, but their lives went in different directions. Nick Kroll would star in FX’sThe Leaguebefore getting his own comedy series,Kroll Showon Comedy Central, while Andrew went on to become a comedy writer for Fox’sFamily Guy.
The second video ends with photos of Nick Kroll being the best man at Andrew Goldberg’s wedding, with narrator John Mulaney adding that it wasn’t quite the same as when they were “Asshole buddies,” which is where Netflix comes in, giving this comedy duo their own series. Nick Kroll himself voices several characters, including the main character Nick Birch, but since Andrew isn’t an actor, they hired John Mulaney to voice this fictional, animated version of Andrew Goldberg, named Andrew Glouberman on the series.
