Trailer for The CW's Martial Arts Series KUNG FU Season 2
The CW has released a trailer for the upcoming second season of its reboot of the martial arts series Kung Fu. I watched the first three episodes of the first season, but it didn’t grab my interest, and I chose not to invest any more of my time in it.
For those of you that are watching it, though, the new trailer gives you a glimpse at what’s in store for Nicky (Olivia Liang) as she finds herself facing a new challenge for the new season as her long-lost cousin, Mia (Vanessa Rao) enters the picture.
Here’s the synopsis for the series:
A quarter-life crisis causes a young Chinese American woman, Nicky Shen (Olivia Liang), to drop out of college and go on a life-changing journey to an isolated monastery in China. But when she returns to San Francisco, she finds her hometown is overrun with crime and corruption and her own parents Jin (Tzi Ma) and Mei-Li (Kheng Hua Tan) are at the mercy of a powerful Triad. Nicky will rely on her tech-savvy sister Althea (Shannon Dang) and Althea's fiancé Dennis (Tony Chung), pre-med brother Ryan (Jon Prasida), Assistant District Attorney and ex-boyfriend Evan (Gavin Stenhouse), and new love interest Henry (Eddie Liu) as well as her martial arts skills and Shaolin values to protect her community and bring criminals to justice…all while searching for the ruthless assassin who killed her Shaolin mentor Pei-Ling (Vanessa Kai) and is now targeting her.
Kung Fu returns for Season 2 on Wednesday, March 9th at 9/8c on The CW. If you’ve been watching the series, is it worth jumping back into?
