Friendship between Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne is central to the TV series 'Platonic'
The second season of the recently premiered series "Platonic" on Apple TV+ is back, delving into the complexities of friendship and midlife challenges.
Starring Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne, the series follows the lives of Sylvia and Will, former best friends who are now navigating their respective midlife crises. The season picks up with their friendship becoming more consuming and causing destabilizing effects in their lives as they tackle personal and relational hurdles.
Sylvia, portrayed by Byrne, is a stay-at-home mom of three, while Will, played by Rogen, is dealing with life post-divorce. The season also explores the dynamics with other characters, including Sylvia’s husband Charlie, Will’s ex-wife Audrey, and new recurring characters introduced in this season.
Critics describe "Platonic" as a warm, feel-good comedy centred on the nuanced, occasionally messy but enduring bond between the two leads. Unlike a cliffhanger-driven continuation, season two focuses on the lived-in rapport, midlife struggles, and comic moments that come from navigating long-term friendships in adulthood.
The second season of "Platonic" premiered on August 6, 2025, with 10 episodes released weekly thereafter. The series is a breezy comedy that offers a refreshing take on the challenges of adulthood and the enduring power of friendship.
