Grab your thinking hats and get ready for Perry Mason Season 2. HBO has released a new extended trailer dishing out the breadcrumbs for the “murder trial of the century” but the real question is, is Perry ready for another murder trial? The Emmy-nominated series is set to take fans on another deep dive into an emotionally charged, thrilling season whilst Perry, Della, and Paul brace themselves for the events to come.

The trailer clearly outlines the emotional turmoil Perry is in while he takes on the new case wherein the scion of a powerful oil family is brutally murdered. Some young Mexican boys are on trial for murder, but our favorite trio believes that they didn’t do it. The new season is set months after the Dodson case came to an end, now Perry, Della, and Paul find themselves uncovering far-reaching conspiracies that force them to reckon with what it truly means to be guilty.

The first season of the series which premiered in 2020 was an instant hit among fans for its emotionally enticing storylines, Perry’s outright attitude, and thrilling mystery. It not only received fan favor but also enjoyed much critical acclaim with Emmy nominations including one for Matthew Rhys’ outstanding performance. Season 2 is eagerly anticipated by fans for another round of thrilling mystery wrapped in the backdrop of 1930s America and Season 2 promises just that and then some more.
