‘What We Do In The Shadows’ Season 2 Is Officially Coming To FX

What We Do in the Shadows is currently in the midst of its first season, and it will debut its second season on FX in 2020. Nick Grad, one of FX’s original programming presidents, released the following statement:

A spin-off of Waititi’s movie about a group of vampires who live together in a city of humans, the What We Do in the Shadows TV show shifts the setting from Wellington, New Zealand to Staten Island, New York. The show stars Kayvan Novak, Matt Berry, Natasia Demetriou, Mark Proksch, Harvey Guillén, and Beanie Feldstein, and airs on Wednesdays at 10pm on FX. Here’s a quick preview for tomorrow night’s episode:

What We Do In The Shadows honors and recreates Waititi and Clement’s original mockumentary magic, lifted and adapted as a singular spinoff. New house, new characters, same sense of humorous vampiric skewering (Twilight references, gory feeding times, Guillermo’s excitable fandom obsession, lavish costumes/effects/production design). Given time to breathe, and evolve, there’s every bit of hope this FX series will attain the same praise and worship still alive for Waititi and Clement’s existing film.
