Apple TV+ today debuts the trailer for the second season of its inspiring and acclaimed unscripted series "Dear... ," from Emmy and Peabody Award-winner R.J. Cutler.

The new season features an episode with the late André Leon Talley, the former Vogue creative director and journalist, who previously collaborated with Cutler on the acclaimed documentary "The September Issue."
Additional conversations to premiere throughout the new season include:

Inspired by Apple's groundbreaking "Dear Apple" spots, "Dear... " takes an inventive and cinematic approach to these biographies. The complete first season of "Dear... " featuring Oprah Winfrey, Gloria Steinem, Spike Lee, Lin-Manuel Miranda, Yara Shahidi, Stevie Wonder, Aly Raisman, Misty Copeland, Big Bird, and more, is now streaming on Apple TV+.
