BBC AND SHOWTIME(R) REVEAL FIRST LOOK IMAGES FROM SEASON TWO OF "DREAMING WHILST BLACK" FROM A24 AND BIG DEAL FILMS

The Critically Acclaimed Series from Adjani Salmon Will Premiere Later This Year on BBC

August 26, 2025 - BBC and SHOWTIME(R) have revealed the first look images from season two of the critically acclaimed comedy series DREAMING WHILST BLACK (6x30') from A24 and Big Deal Films.

The new season finds Kwabena at the start of his professional career in a new era: the age of diversity, equity and inclusion, where empowering marginalized voices are seemingly at the top of everyone's agenda. Whilst the entertainment industry might look progressive from the outside, it doesn't feel that way to Kwabs. Desperate to work on a project that aligns with his values, he manages to secure a directing job for major TV series Sin and Subterfuge - a genre-busting period drama, helmed by the iconic black producer Bridgette Julienne. But has Kwabs landed the golden ticket, or did he grab a poisoned chalice?

Season one of the series received BAFTA(R) TV nominations for Scripted Comedy and Male Performance in a Comedy Programme, an NAACP(R) nomination for Outstanding Breakthrough Creative (Television) and Film Independent Spirit Awards nominations for Best New Scripted Series and Best Breakthrough Performance in a New Scripted Series.

The show is adapted from the original web series co-written by Salmon and Ali Hughes and created by Salmon, Max Evans and Laura de Sousa Seixas. It garnered a string of award wins and nominations for the creator, star and co-writer Adjani Salmon, including the 2022 BAFTA for Emerging Talent: Fiction and Screen International Star of Tomorrow.

Returning cast members include Dani Moseley as Amy, Demmy Ladipo as Maurice, Rachel Adedeji as Funmi and babirye Bukilwa as Vanessa.

Co-produced by A24 and UK-based indie Big Deal Films, DREAMING WHILST BLACK is executive produced by Adjani Salmon, Ali Hughes and Big Deal Films' Dhanny Joshi and Thomas Stogdon. The series is directed by Sebastian Thiel and Abdou Cisse, and produced by Nicola Gregory.
