A 1790s farm that Amy Schumer’s family once owned and lost gave her the inspiration for her upcoming Hulu dramedy Life & Beth.
Amy Schumer told Entertainment Weekly in an interview, “While I was pregnant [in 2019], we were up there, and I had time to think and slow down and daydream. Being in that place where my parents had gotten married, I started writing this story. It just hit me. It felt like something I had to get out of.”
When she created and portrayed the protagonist, a successful 39-year-old New York City wine distributor whose life takes a major turn, Schumer took inspiration from her own experiences.
Schumer continued,“[The show is] based on themes from my life, but there is stuff that Beth does that really happened,” Schumer, whose middle name is Beth, continued. “There’s an episode where she flashes some boys. That happened to me. And Episode 9 has a dark moment that’s real.”
Schumer begins to understand how she came to be who she is and what she wants to become by reliving her teen years and learning to express herself. The show is basically about letting go of guilt and anxiety, according to Schumer.
She said, “Because of these early traumas, we arm ourselves, and it’s about letting go and trusting and how to let yourself figure out how to be happy.”
But even though Season 2 of Hulu’s Life and Beth has yet to be announced, Schumer definitely has an impressive resume of previous projects to draw on, plus she still has all her teen notebooks to refer to in case she forgets something.
Given the favorable early reviews, it’s probable that the series will be back. As you wait for an official announcement, here’s what you need to know.
Release Date for Life & Beth Season 2
In spring 2021, Life & Beth started filming in New York City, Long Island, and the Hudson Valley after Hulu placed an order for the first ten episodes in July 2019.
According to Amy Schumer’s Instagram, production on Life & Beth was completed on July 16th. Eight months later, on March 18, 2022, the first episode of the first season aired. Life & Beth could return for a second season in early 2023, depending on the decisions made behind the scenes.
The Cast of Life & Beth Season 2
Alongside Schumer in the first season of Life & Beth is Michael Cera as John, Laura Benanti as Jane, Violet Young as Beth, Yamaneika Saunders as Kiana, Kevin Kane as Matt, and Michael Rapaport as Leonard.
