Amazon Prime Video was set to premiere The Family Man 2, the second season of their hugely popular streaming show The Family Man (2019), on February 12, 2021. However, soon the makers released a statement informing viewers of their decision of pushing the show to a later date.


And now, the news is coming in that the streamer is finally set to launch the show in June and the trailer for the same will be out on Wednesday, May 19. Yes, you read that absolutely right! The trailer for The Family Man 2 is coming out on May 19, as per reports.

A source close to the development divulges, “The trailer of The Family Man 2 is going to be out on Wednesday, May 19. The makers are aware of the humongous expectations associated with the show. And the promo promises to surely enhance the excitement.”

The source goes on to add, “The Family Man was known for blending humour with thrill. The sequel follows this template and this would be visible in the trailer. Also, the promo would introduce the viewers to the character of Samantha Akkineni and how it adds to the madness.”

Some media outlets have been reporting for a couple of weeks now that The Family Man 2 is set to premiere on June 11. To which the source says, “It will be out next month but the date is not fixed yet. A decision would be taken in a few days. Amazon might unveil the release date in the trailer.”

Another speculation that has been doing the rounds for some time now is that the second season is set against the backdrop of Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), a Tamil militant organization that was based in northeastern Sri Lanka. “No, it is not. The makers have created a fictional terrorist group. It is the most sensible thing to do in today’s times when anything can lead to a controversy,” concludes the source.

Anurag Kashyap calls Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos "the definition of dumb" over 'Sacred Games' remark

Anurag Kashyap is known for being outspoken, and this weekend he made headlines again, this time taking aim at Netflix’s top boss Ted Sarandos. The filmmaker lashed out after Sarandos questioned the streaming platform’s early approach in India, particularly their decision to kick things off with Kashyap’s gritty crime drama Sacred Games in 2018.

During an interview on Nikhil Kamath’s podcast People by WTF, Sarandos said he may have chosen a more “populist” route if he could go back, admitting the series was perhaps too novel for the Indian market at the time. The comments didn’t sit well with Kashyap, who fired back on social media, calling Sarandos “the definition of dumb” and sarcastically suggesting the platform should’ve launched with traditional “saas-bahu” content instead.

‘Maybe Happy Ending’ wins six Tony Awards as Korean musical makes Broadway history

South Korea just scored a historic milestone at the Tony Awards, with the musical Maybe Happy Ending bagging six trophies, including Best Musical and Best Lead Actor. The show, centred on two ageing helper robots living on the edge of Seoul, left the awards night buzzing. Korean entertainment, long a force in film, television, and music, is now making serious inroads into Western theatre too.


From Seoul to Broadway: A story born in two languages

Maybe Happy Ending wasn’t always destined for the bright lights of Broadway. It first opened in a small Seoul theatre in 2016, a result of a local arts foundation’s programme. Co-created by South Korean lyricist Hue Park and American composer Will Aronson, the story explores loneliness, connection, and memory through the eyes of obsolete robots. Written in both Korean and English, the piece has been reimagined several times since its debut.

Darren Criss, known to many as a Glee star, played Oliver and took home his first Tony for the role. His co-star Helen J Shen portrayed Claire, the other robot. Together, they brought the emotional weight to a futuristic love story that’s more human than it sounds.


While the robots explore feelings in a near-future Seoul, the show managed to preserve distinct Korean elements like Jeju Island and the traditional plant pot hwabun on the Broadway stage, something fans celebrated online.


A cultural shift, decades in the making

With this win, South Korea joins the rare club of nations with major victories across all four major American entertainment awards, including the Oscars, Emmys, Grammys, and now Tonys. From Parasite to Squid Game, and now Maybe Happy Ending, Korean creators are no longer breaking into the global scene, they’re leading it.

The success also validates years of quiet work in South Korea’s theatre scene. Original musicals like Marie Curie and The Great Gatsby have made appearances in the West End and on Broadway, but Maybe Happy Ending marks the first time a Korean musical has truly swept the Tonys.


As one critic noted, more than awards, it’s about shifting global perspectives. Korean musicals are no longer export hopefuls. They’re now centre stage.
