What Happened to Julie and the Phantoms Season 2?
The season one premiere of Julie and The Phantoms was a huge success, with fans of all ages voting it Best Musical Moment at the MTV Movie & TV Awards 2021. Beating out tough competition like WandaVision’s ‘Agatha All Along’ and Beyoncé’s Black Is King’ visual album, it’s clear that the show had a big impact on those who watched it.
Given that the series was quite popular, it only made sense that Kenny Ortega expressed his excitement for another season in interviews. He stated that he loved “the basis of it” and how “a little girl, awakening the three ghosts exploding into her life and sharing this love of music and starting a band,” ignited his spirit.
Shawn Williamson, the producer, stated that there are numerous storylines yet to be concluded from season one and added that Dan Cross and Dave Hoge demonstrate exceptional talent as showrunners. He went on further to say he is certain the second season will surpass the first.
