FX has announced that its Ryan Murphy<\/strong> drama series Pose<\/strong> will return for Season 2 at 9 p.m. Sunday, June 9.<\/p>\n The show explores the juxtaposition of several segments of life and society: the underground ball culture, the rise of the Trump-era luxury universe and the downtown social and literary scene that came to define New York in the 1980s. Season 2 will make the leap into the following decade, opening on the day Madonna\u2019s single \u201cVogue\u201d was released in 1990. Also, on the heels of the ballroom community establishing itself in pop culture and going mainstream, the House of Evangelista is forced to re-evaluate its goals. Meanwhile, the AIDS crisis worsens and the reaction from a group of activists reaches a fever pitch.<\/strong><\/p>\n The series features the largest number of trans actors in series-regular roles ever for a scripted series. Its cast includes Mj Rodriguez, Dominique Jackson, Indya Moore, Hailie Sahar, Angelica Ross, Billy Porter, Charlayne Woodard, Ryan Jamaal Swain, Dyll\u00f3n Burnside<\/strong> and Angel Bismark Curiel<\/strong>.
