In news that is legend — wait for it — dary, streaming service Disney+ just announced that Hulu’s How I Met Your Father has been renewed for a 20-episode second season. The first season, which stars Hilary Duff, will be available to watch on the platform from March 9 in Australia.
Written by Isaac Aptaker and Elizabeth Berger, How I Met Your Father starts off with Sophie (Kim Cattrall) telling her son the story of how she met his father. Taking viewers back to the year 2021, when Sophie (Hilary Duff) and her group of friends, Jesse (Chris Lowell), Valentina (Francia Raisa), Charlie (Tom Ainsley), Ellen (Tien Tran) and Sid (Suraj Sharma), are on a journey of figuring out their life’s true purpose.
As they fall in love during the age of technology, the group of young singles are faced with an unlimited amount of options, and viewers are taken along for the ride with them.
“Isaac and Elizabeth’s inspired vision for How I Met Your Father has proven to be true appointment viewing that fans cannot get enough of week to week. The lives of these characters, as portrayed by the immensely talented cast led by Hilary Duff, are just starting to unfold and we’re thrilled to bring more of this group’s journey to our viewers with a supersized second season,” said Jordan Helman, Head of Scripted Content, Hulu Originals.
The show, which is a reboot of the insanely popular comedy series, How I Met Your Mother, only had 10 episodes in the first season. But now, the renewal will see that amount double.
It’s clear the reboot of the much-loved sitcom has been well received, and we cannot wait till it lands in Australia so we can tune in and catch up with the rest of the world.
Season one of How I Met Your Father will be available to stream exclusively on Disney+ Australia from March 9.
