Summer 2020 TV series will delight fans of blockbusters, legal dramas, and horror. There will truly be a lot of interesting content.
Summer is inexorably approaching, so it's time to open your calendars to mark the premiere dates of upcoming TV series that will help you take your mind off pressing issues.
The most anticipated TV series of summer 2020 include both blockbusters from Disney and more modest shows for a thoughtful audience. Everyone will find a project in this list to their liking.
Dirty John: The Betty Broderick Story
Premiere Date: June 2
In 2018, USA Network debuted a screen adaptation of the Los Angeles Times crime podcast about a con man seducing a wealthy woman. The lead roles were played by Eric Bana and Connie Britton. At the beginning of summer, a new season of the project is released, which has transformed into an anthology, meaning it will focus on other characters.
The story will center on Betty Broderick (Amanda Peet), accused of murdering her ex-husband (played by Christian Slater) and his new flame.
Love, Victor
Premiere Date: June 19
On June 19, Hulu will release a kind of spin-off of the novel "Love, Simon," which was previously adapted by Greg Berlanti. Originally, this show was planned for release on Disney+, but since it directly addresses LGBT issues, the Mouse House bosses deemed it not quite suitable for a "family" label. For this reason, the series moved to Hulu, which has no such content restrictions.
The plot follows a teenager named Victor (Michael Cimino), who transfers to a new school and simultaneously tries to figure out his own sexuality and orientation.
NOS4A2
Premiere Date: June 21
At the end of June, AMC will launch the continuation of the series "NOS4A2," an adaptation of the works of Stephen King's son, Joe Hill.
The events of the new season unfold 8 years after the events of the debut episodes. Zachary Quinto returns to another sinister role, which cannot but please fans of the unique artist's talents.
Perry Mason
Premiere Date: June 21
On June 21, HBO will premiere one of the most intriguing projects of the season called "Perry Mason." The show is an adaptation of Erle Stanley Gardner's books about a brilliant lawyer skillfully solving his clients' problems.
The lead role in the series will be played by Matthew Rhys, and among the producers is none other than Robert Downey Jr. Gardner's series of novels has been adapted multiple times before; let's see how HBO manages it.
Yellowstone
Premiere Date: June 21
The project by solid screenwriter Taylor Sheridan starring Kevin Costner returns to screens for a third season. As usual, it will be tense, unpredictable for the characters, and very beautiful.
The new season is set to launch right around Father's Day, which can be seen as a kind of gift from the creators.
Doom Patrol
Premiere Date: June 25
One of the most eccentric and creative series of last year returns for a second season at the end of June.
Brendan Fraser, Matt Bomer, Timothy Dalton, and other stars of the first season will return to their familiar roles. The story picks up where the debut episodes left off and will also tell how the "family" tries to accept Dorothy, Niles' (Dalton) daughter.
Hanna
Premiere Date: July 3
Amazon Prime invites viewers this summer to dive back into the world where teenagers with professional killer skills operate. In the second season of the show inspired by the film "Hanna," Hanna learns she is far from the only assassin of her kind. Expect plenty of inventive action and an unpredictable plot.
The Falcon and the Winter Soldier
Premiere Date: August
The first of a whole string of new superhero series within the Marvel Cinematic Universe is set to launch this summer. Since production is gradually returning to normal, we have every right to hope for a favorable outcome and a speedy premiere of the new title.
As evident from the title, the focus will be on characters played by Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan, who will join forces to fight evil.
Lovecraft Country
Premiere Date: August
HBO will mark this summer with another major project by Jordan Peele, who continues his steady expansion into American TV and streaming platforms.
The new horror series is an adaptation of Matt Ruff's novel of the same name, which tells the story of a young man (Jonathan Majors), his childhood friend, and his uncle traveling through the southern states in the 1950s in search of his lost father. Along the way, the characters face racism and real monsters inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft.
Soulmates
Premiere Date: August
On AMC, a new anthology project is expected to launch towards the end of summer, which can be described as a mix of "Black Mirror" and "Modern Love." This series is notable for the name of its creator, William Bridges, one of the co-writers of that very "Black Mirror," and for featuring actors such as Charlie Heaton and Malin Åkerman.
The events of the new show take place in the near future, where computers can accurately determine soulmates. The first season promises six stories about true love, diverse in tone and presentation.
The most anticipated TV series of summer 2020 could not overlook Netflix, but we decided to dedicate a separate post to the premieres of the world's leading streaming service.
