‘The Rehearsal’ Sets Season 2 Premiere Date At HBO; Watch Teaser

HBO has set Sunday, April 20 for the Season 2 premiere of Nathan Fielder’s The Rehearsal and released the first teaser.

The 20-second clip features Fielder, with laptop in hand, overseeing five identical rooms on a soundstage, with various scenes playing out in them. In Season 2, per HBO’s logline, the urgency of Fielder’s project grows as he decides to put his resources toward an issue that affects us all.

The Rehearsal follows one man’s journey to reduce the uncertainties of everyday life. With a construction crew, a legion of actors, and seemingly unlimited resources, Fielder helps ordinary people prepare for life’s biggest moments by “rehearsing” them in carefully crafted simulations of his own design.

Fielder stars, writes, directs and executive produces. Also executive producing are Eric Notarnicola, Dave Paige, and Christie Smith & Dan McManus for Rise Management. Kris Eber and Carrie Kemper co-executive produce and Adam Locke-Norton produces. Additional writers include Notarnicola, Kemper and Locke-Norton.
