Today, Apple TV revealed a first look and premiere date for the highly anticipated second season of "The Sisters Grimm," premiering globally on Friday, October 2. Based on Michael Buckley's New York Times bestselling book series, "The Sisters Grimm" is a journey of adventure and heart about sleuth-solving sisters descended from the Brothers Grimm who, while very different, make a pretty great team. Season one earned a 100 percent critics score on Rotten Tomatoes.
In season two, one year after their parents' mysterious disappearance, sisters Sabrina and Daphne Grimm continue uncovering the secrets of Ferryport Landing, where fairy tales and fairy tale creatures are real, as they face new adventures and mysteries.
The series is led by a stellar voice cast, including Ariel Winter ("Modern Family") as Sabrina, Leah Newman as Daphne, Laraine Newman ("Saturday Night Live") as Relda, Abubakar Salim ("Raised by Wolves") as Charming, Billy Harris ("Ted Lasso") as Puck and Harry Trevaldwyn ("How to Train Your Dragon") as Mirror.
"The Sisters Grimm" is developed by Emmy Award nominee Amy Higgins ("Star vs. the Forces of Evil"), who serves as showrunner, and Emmy Award nominee Erica Rothschild ("Sofia the First"). Emmy Award-winning studio Titmouse ("Duck & Goose," "Harriet the Spy," "Frog and Toad") produces the animation. The six-episode series is executive produced by Higgins, Buckley ("Robotomy"), Emmy Award winner Elliot Blake ("Re\Visioned: Tomb Raider"), Emmy Award winner Philip Alberstat ("The Incredible Mrs. Ritchie"), Steven Amato ("27 Mins") and Theresa Park ("Roar," "Expats") alongside Titmouse's Chris Prynoski ("The Legend of Vox Machina"), Shannon Prynoski ("Scavengers Reign"), Ben Kalina ("Big Mouth") and Antonio Canobbio ("Digman!"). Sage Cotugno serves as supervising director.
