Watch The Afterparty season 2

The Afterparty season 2 is a 10-part comedic murder mystery series on Apple TV+, which starts on Wednesday 12th July with Tiffany Haddish and Sam Richardson leading an ensemble cast. Apple TV+ is available in over 100 countries, but, if you’re in a region that doesn’t offer the service, then a VPN will let you connect to your subscription back home.

The Afterparty season 2: preview

As slick and stylish as it is silly, The Afterparty gained legions of fans for its razor-sharp storytelling via all manner of genres, and executive producers Chris Miller and Phil Lord have taken things to a new level for season 2, loading the cast with big names, enlisting the expertise of a small army of filmmakers, and upping the episode count to 10.

When lizard-wearing, crypto-spouting groom Edgar (Zach Woods) is discovered dead in a bed on his wedding day, Zoe (Zoe Chao), the sister of the bride, and Aniq (Sam Richardson) know exactly who to call. 

She's no longer technically a detective, but Danner (Tiffany Haddish) knows the drill, and quickly sets about tugging at the various loose threads, sinking her teeth into the deceased's slimy business partner Sebastian (Jack Whitehall), erratic adopted sister Hannah (Anna Konkle), gin-pickled mother Isabel (Elizabeth Perkins), and would-have-been wife Grace’s (Poppy Liu) long-lost Uncle Ulysses (John Cho).

Who knew so many people could have it in for a finance bro? Ken Jeong, Paul Walter Hauser, and Vivian Wu also star, and below we'll explain how to watch The Afterparty season 2 for FREE with Apple TV+, and from absolutely anywhere with a VPN.
