Andrew Rannells Leads Deli Boys Season 2 to May 28
Andrew Rannells enters Deli Boys Season 2 as Andrew Chadwater, a mayoral candidate building his campaign around destroying the Dars’ family business. Hulu set the six-episode return for May 28 after dropping the trailer and poster.
The new season lands after the first run drew a 96% critics’ score on Rotten Tomatoes. That kind of response gives Hulu a cleaner runway for a binge release, and it explains why the streamer is returning the comedy in a compact six-episode drop rather than stretching the rollout.
May 28 and six episodes
May 28 is the date viewers need. All six episodes will stream on Hulu in a binge-friendly format, which puts the whole season in front of subscribers at once instead of spacing out the story week by week.
The trailer description sets up the season with the Dars “drowning in dirty cash” while Philly’s sketchiest crooks circle. Mir, Raj, and Lucky now have the less glamorous problem of where to stash the money, and that practical mess becomes the engine for the next round of deals and betrayals.
Andrew Chadwater targets the Dars
Andrew Chadwater comes in as the sharpest new pressure point. Rannells plays a Philly D.A. who hopes one big bust will make him mayor, which turns the family’s criminal operation into a political target instead of just a private liability.
Fred Armisen returns as Max Sugar, a casino magnate and money launderer, while Lucky pursues a chaotic romance with him and Raj lands in jail. The trailer also adds Kumail Nanjiani, Lilly Singh, and Robin Thede as guest stars, with Tan France back in a recurring guest role.
Deli Boys on the Hulu slate
The cast shake-up gives Season 2 more moving parts than the debut run had, but the core business remains the same: the Dars are trying to keep an inherited empire from collapsing under its own cash. Created by Abdullah Saeed and developed by Jenni Konner and Nora Silver, with Michelle Nader as showrunner, the series is being positioned as a tighter, higher-stakes follow-up rather than a reset.
For viewers, the practical takeaway is simple: the full season arrives May 28, and Rannells’ Chadwater looks built to be the season’s main obstacle from the start. Hulu has chosen a fast, complete rollout, so the real question is not when the story starts but how much damage the Dars can absorb over six episodes.
