Barry: Season 2 — Official Trailer

added: Fri, Feb 22nd '19

Bill Hader grapples with his sense of honesty in the new official trailer for Season 2 of HBO's acclaimed hitman-turned-actor comedy series "Barry," which is co-created by Hader and "Silicon Valley" producer Alec Berg.

Winner of three Emmy Awards, including Best Comedy Actor for Hader and Best Comedy Supporting Actor for Henry Winkler, who plays lovable, yet shoddy acting coach Gene Cousineau, the half-hour HBO series centers on Barry Berkman (Hader), an ex-Marine/hitman who unexpectedly gets bitten by the acting bug when he travels to Los Angeles for a hit job. Barry soon joins Gene's acting class and becomes one of his most promising pupils. But Barry's secret life of contract killing eventually affects his acting aspirations.

Season 2 will find Barry trying to leave his old criminal life as he continues to pursuit his dreams of acting. But to be a true performer, Barry must get in touch with his emotions in order to be willing to reveal his darkest secrets.

"Was there ever a time in your life that you did something so terrible that you would have shame?" Gene asks Barry as they sit on the floor of his acting class. To which Barry replies, "I can't think of anything."

Co-starring Sarah Goldberg as Barry's actress girlfriend, Stephen Root as Barry's ex-hitman mediator and Anthony Carrigan as a laid-back Chechen gangster who has a special fondness for Barry and his killing skills, "Barry" is set to return for its second season on Sunday, March 31st, only on HBO.
