LONDON, UK (26 August) Disney+ has today announced their must-watch comedy “Alice and Steve” created and written by Sophie Goodhart, will return for a second season on Disney+ in the UK and Ireland and on Disney+ and Hulu in the U.S. Following three award wins at CANNESERIES, critical acclaim, heated online discourse, and an even hotter cliff-hanger ending, Disney+ has renewed the British comedy series for a second run.  

In season 1, Alice is devastated when her best friend Steve starts dating her 26-year-old daughter Izzy. She’s going to lose her best friend and her daughter in one fell swoop. Alice tries everything she can to end the relationship. Unfortunately for her, Steve’s more than ready for the attack, and what begins as a perfect friendship, devolves into an all-out feud. 

Sophie Goodhart, Creator and Writer, says: “I am so thrilled that ‘Alice and Steve’ has been given a second season.  No one will be prepared for what happens next, especially not Alice and Steve.”

Petra Fried, Joint Managing Director, Clerkenwell Films, says: ‘We absolutely love ‘Alice and Steve’ - both the show and of course the two characters at the heart of Sophie’s brilliantly messy, funny and fearless exploration of friendship and love. We’re thrilled to be bringing it back for a second season and can't wait for audiences to see what Sophie has in store for our favourite frenemies.”

Lee Mason, VP, Scripted, Disney+ EMEA, adds” “It’s been fantastic to see the rapturous reactions to ‘Alice and Steve’ from viewers at home. Sophie has created a distinctive and original comedy, striking a chord and sparking debate with audiences across the country. I’m excited to see what mayhem Sophie and Clerkenwell have in store for our titular characters after that delicious cliffhanger – but we can expect more laughs, betrayal, and bad decisions in season two.” 

“Alice and Steve” is executive produced by Petra Fried, Sophie Gardiner and Wim de Greef with Co-Executive Producer, Rachael Stephenson for Clerkenwell Films, part of BBC Studios, and was commissioned by Lee Mason, VP, Scripted, Disney+ EMEA.
