It's official: Shrinking is coming back for Season 3. The announcement was made only a day after the first two episodes of Season 2 premiered on Apple TV+ at this year's New York Comic Con. Co-creators and stars Jason Segel and Brett Goldstein hit the Main Stage to share the good news, joined by fellow cast members Christa Miller, Luke Tennie, Jessica Williams, Michael Urie, Lukita Maxwell, and Ted McGinley.
The series, which became a massive hit for the streamer when it debuted in 2023, follows Jimmy (Segel), a therapist who's managing his own grief of losing his wife. As a result of having to pick up the pieces of his personal life, Jimmy's professional training takes a backseat to sharing exactly what's on his mind with his patients. According to Goldstein, while speaking with Collider's Steve Weintraub at NYCC, the writers "always pick a word that is the true north for the season, and this season, it's forgiveness." He also teases some fuller storylines for even more characters.
While in our media studio, the cast and creatives chat about what fans can expect from not only Season 2 but how far they are into planning Season 3. While they couldn't dish on too much this early, we do know when filming will begin, and their hopes for continuing after the third season. Check out the full conversation in the video above or in the transcript below for all of this and what it's like to share scenes with the iconic Harrison Ford.
