Season 2 Of ‘Woke’ Will Bring In Aimee Garcia
For those unaware, the Hulu series, co-created by Keith Knight and Marshall Todd, centers on Keef Knight (Lamorne Morris), an African-American cartoonist who finds himself on the verge of mainstream success when an unexpected incident changes his life. With a newfound consciousness, Keef must navigate the new voices and ideas challenging him, all without setting fire to everything he’s already built and the comedy’s second season will star Garcia as Laura Salgado, a likable but formidable Silicon Valley capitalist, according to Deadline.
Knight and Todd exec produce Woke, alongside Jay Dyer, Maurice “Mo” Marable, Aeysha Carr, Richie Schwartz, John Will, Will Gluck and Eric Christian Olsen.
