Who mentioned the heroes’ journey can’t take slightly detour? Within the trailer for “We Are Woman Components” Season 2, the eponymous feminine punk band decides to dabble in villainy — to endlessly entertaining outcomes.
Created by “Well mannered Society” author and director Nida Manzoor, “We Are Woman Components” premiered within the U.Okay. in 2018 and within the U.S. through Peacock in 2021. IndieWire’s Steve Greene wrote on the time that “Every member of the larger Woman Components quintet may simply deal with an episode on their very own,” praising a present which is “at its finest when it’s breaking free from restraints, too, tossing in a bunch of playful asides and visible diversions.”
“I wished to go bolder, sillier, darker and deeper and that’s precisely what we strived to do,” Manzoor mentioned in a press launch accompanying the Season 2 trailer.
Season 1 started with Amina (Anjana Vasan) becoming a member of Woman Components with out her mother and father’ information — not as a result of they’d disapprove, however as a result of it speaks to part of her that must be nurtured. There she meets Saira (Sarah Kameela Impey), Ayesha (Juliette Motamed), Bisma (Religion Omole), and Momtaz (Lucie Shorthouse), the best women ostensibly in the entire large world writing irresistible bangers like “Voldemort Below My Scarf” (“What may I be hiding?”).
Time has handed between Seasons 1 and a couple of on the planet of the present as properly; Vasan as soon as once more narrates the brand new trailer as Amina, explaining that Woman Components has a fan base and tour dates as the women prep to launch a full album. That formidable milestone has its setbacks, together with two 1000’s kilos in charges and a sneaky sense that they’re promoting out as a way to keep their punk rock standing. Worse but, a competing outfit known as Second Spouse is plagiarizing Woman Components’ songs in a brazen try and steal their highlight. With all that happening, who can begrudge slightly villainy?
The season additionally stars Zaqi Ismail, Shobu Kapoor, and Aiysha Hart, with visitor appearances by Malala Yousafzai and Meera Syal.
