Blackfilm.com correspondent Ellen Wanjiru sits with William Jackson Harper to discuss the premiere of LOVE LIFE season 2 on HBO Max, what drew him to the project, and his character “Marcus Watkins” — a man who cares too much about what other people think, and who must learn to live for himself.
Romantic comedy anthology series Love Life returns with three episodes on THURSDAY, OCTOBER 28. Season two focuses on Marcus Watkins (Emmy nominee and executive producer William Jackson Harper). After his marriage unexpectedly implodes, Marcus is forced to rebuild his life brick by brick, hoping to find a love that will last, once and for all. The ten-episode season continues with three episodes on November 4 and concludes with four episodes on November 11.
Like season one, each episode is a chapter focused on a different defining relationship and the episodes skip forward through time, showing how our relationships shape our lives. Emmy winner Keith David narrates.
In addition to Harper, season two also stars series regulars Jessica Williams, Punkie Johnson and Chris “Comedian CP” Powell; recurring guest stars Arian Moayed, Leslie Bibb and John Earl Jelks; and guest stars Maya Kazan, Ego Nwodim, Kimberly Elise, Blair Underwood, Janet Hubert, Jordan Rock and Steven Boyer. Keith David narrates. Season one’s Anna Kendrick, who also executive produces, Zoë Chao, Peter Vack, Sasha Compére and Nick Thune will appear in season two.
LOVE LIFE season two is co-showrun by creator Sam Boyd, Bridget Bedard and Rachelle Williams. Boyd, Bedard and Williams serve as executive producers with Anna Kendrick, William Jackson Harper, Paul Feig and Dan Magnante. LOVE LIFE is produced by Lionsgate Television and Feigco Entertainment.
