The tailer of The Morning Show Episode 2 starring Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon has been released. The new trailer gives some significant insight into what the next season will be like, and it doesn't look like things have gotten much better since the tragic season 1 finale. The Morning Show Seson 2 is set to release on September 17 on Apple TV+.

'The Morning Show' new trailer released 

Season 1 of The Morning Show ended with some tragic events and an explosive final scene with Jennifer Aniston's Alex and Reese Witherspoon's Bradley, exposing the network's sexual misconduct on their air and then being cut-off half way. The next season it seems, will deal with some new aspects like the outbreak of the Coronavirus pandemic, a bombshell exposé about the behind-the-scenes troubles and racism among its ranks. 

The trailer for season 2 opens with The Morning Show facing new problems, nine months after the events of season 1. It seems that the risk the two ladies took to expose the fictional UBA network, did not prove to do much damage. A previous trailer for the show revealed that Alex aka Jen Aniston had quit the show after everything. 

The Morning Show's new trailer now sheds light on the struggle to bring her back into the fold. The trailer also ends with the with another classic monologue by Crudup where he says: "This is a battle for the soul of the universe."
