English Teacher will be coming back for a second season, despite the recent controversy surrounding the creator of the series. According to Variety, Brian Jordan Álvarez will come back as Evan Marquez for new episodes of the FX comedy. The first installment of the series came to a close last fall. After a couple of months of uncertainty, audiences can rest assured knowing that the story of English Teacher will continue in the near future. Every new episode of English Teacher is released on Hulu a day after it premieres on FX, allowing audiences to catch every moment of Evan’s life without missing a beat.

English Teacher follows Evan Marquez as he tries to keep his personal life, politics and his job at a high school separate. Nevertheless, the series is about how this proves to be impossible for the character played by Brian Jordan Álvarez. The cast of the series also includes Stephanie Koenig as Gwen Sanders, Enrico Colantoni as Grant Moretti and Jordan Firstman as Malcolm. The first season of English Teacher concluded with Malcolm and Evan sharing an intimate moment. The second installment of the show could tackle how the aftermath of this event will shape Evan’s life moving forward.
