'Jury Duty' Season 2 Was Already Secretly Filmed, New Theme Revealed for Prime Video Series

Jury Duty is returning for a second season on Amazon Prime Video and the upcoming installment was secretly filmed without anyone knowing!

The first season of the show ran on Amazon’s Freevee streaming service, but the company closed up that offering and put all of the content on Prime Video instead.

Season one of Jury Duty featured an unsuspecting person participating as a juror at a trial, but everyone else there was an actor who was in on the joke. James Marsden played an exaggerated version of himself and earned Emmy and Golden Globe nominations for his performance.

The theme of the new season has been revealed and it won’t take place at a trial.

Deadline reports that the second season takes “inspiration from classic 1980s movies such as Animal House and Caddyshack, it is about a small business going on a company retreat, with the real, unsuspected person tested when a Goliath suddenly shows up.”

No details about casting have been revealed yet.

Jury Duty showrunner Cody Heller previously told Variety of upcoming seasons, “Obviously, it would have to be a whole different universe. You couldn’t just do jury duty again, because then people would be like, ‘Wait a second.’ But I do think that it’s possible. I do think there’s a million different worlds that this kind of thing could exist in.”

Ronald Gladden, who was the unsuspecting juror in season one, now has a development deal with Amazon to produce upcoming shows.
