LEGION: Things Get Seriously Weird In These Two Mind-Bending New Season 2 Promos
With the season premiere just around a month away, FX has released two more mind-bending new promos for the upcoming second season of Legion, featuring even more new footage! Come check them out!
"Who is the real David?"
After a lengthy wait, we're now just under a month away from a whole new season of mind-bending action when Legion returns for its long-awaited second season on April 3. Plot details unsurprisingly remain under lock-and-key, but we do know the new season will pick up approximately a year later, with David Haller (Dan Stevens) still presumably locked up wherever he may be.
FX has released two new previews and while neither features that much new footage, we are teased with some very trippy ongoings.
Watch the two new promos below:
Legion, based on the Marvel Comics by Chris Claremont and Bill Sienkiewicz, is the story of David Haller (Dan Stevens) – a troubled young man who may be more than human.
Diagnosed as schizophrenic as a child, David has been in and out of psychiatric hospitals for years. Now in his early 30s and institutionalized once again, David loses himself in the rhythm of the structured regimen of life in the hospital: breakfast, lunch, dinner, therapy, medications, sleep. David spends the rest of his time in companionable silence alongside his chatterbox friend Lenny (Aubrey Plaza), a fellow patient whose life-long drug and alcohol addiction has done nothing to quell her boundless optimism that her luck is about to change. The pleasant numbness of David’s routine is completely upended with the arrival of a beautiful and troubled new patient named Syd (Rachel Keller). Inexplicably drawn to one another, David and Syd share a startling encounter, after which he must confront the shocking possibility that the voices he hears and the visions he sees are the result of him being a mutant.
A haunted man, David escapes from the hospital and seeks shelter with his sister Amy (Katie Aselton). But Amy’s concern for her brother is trumped by her desire to protect the picture perfect suburban life she’s built for herself. Eventually, Syd guides David to Melanie Bird (Jean Smart), a nurturing but demanding therapist with a sharp mind and unconventional methods. She and her team of specialists – Ptonomy (Jeremie Harris), Kerry (Amber Midthunder) and Cary (Bill Irwin) – open David’s eyes to an extraordinary new world of possibilities.
