‘Jury Duty’ Season 2 Sets Release Date at Amazon, Will Follow Fake Hot Sauce Company Retreat

Amazon Prime Video has set the premiere date for “Jury Duty” Season 2.

Officially titled “Jury Duty Presents: Company Retreat,” the new season of the series will premiere on March 20 with its first three episodes, followed by two episodes on March 27, and a three-episode finale on April 3.

The official description of the new season states that it “captures a corporate offsite event at a family-owned hot sauce company from the perspective of Anthony, a recently hired temporary worker. Unbeknownst to Anthony, the entire experience is staged, every colleague around him is performing a role, and each moment – whether in conference rooms or during downtime – has been meticulously orchestrated. As the founder prepares to step down, the getaway transforms into a clash between big corporate ambitions and small business values, with control of the company hanging in the balance.”

The series is executive produced by David Bernad, Lee Eisenberg, Gene Stupnitsky, Todd Schulman, Nicholas Hatton, Jake Szymanski, Anthony King, Chris Kula, Season 1 star James Marsden, and Ruben Fleischer. Eisenberg and Stupnitsky co-created the series, with Szymanski directing.

The setup for Anthony is in keeping with the show’s first season, in which Ronald Gladden believed he was taking part in an actual jury but was really part of an elaborate stunt pulled off by real actors. The series premiered on the now defunct Amazon Freevee back in 2023.

The show met with strong critical and audience acclaim upon its debut, including four Emmy nominations (including outstanding comedy series), two Golden Globes nominations, and two Critics Choice Award nominations.
