In 2021, a new animated superhero series called Invincible was released on Amazon. Unlike many of its counterparts, it is rated 18+ and is recognized as one of the most violent on TV. Robert Kirkman’s comic books, known for the Walking Dead series, were used as the source material. The project is being created directly under Kirkman’s supervision, which resulted in an accurate retelling of the story. This was appreciated by fans and critics alike. Shortly before the release of the final episode of the first season, news about the development of the second and third seasons appeared on the social media of the voice actors. The release date for season 2 of the series Invincible is expected in 2022.

At the center of the story is an ordinary-looking guy named Mark. This is a 17-year-old teenager, a typical schoolboy in the active stage of growing up, which is accompanied by many difficulties. The hero does not differ from his peers, but there is one nuance. His father is the most powerful superhero on earth. He is her protector and seems infallible to Mark himself, but faced with his father starting to train him, the guy will reconsider his views on his parent and realize that he was very wrong in his assessment. The release date of the new series is 2022.
What do you think, is it worth filming a sequel, and what should be in it?
On his seventeenth birthday, the young man learns that he has inherited all of his father’s powers and will have to follow in his footsteps by becoming a superhero partner. For this, he has to learn how to deal with the received power, and in general to understand a number of rules. His father personally starts training his son, which is harsh and forces the boy to look at his father differently. At the same time, he realizes that he does not want to give up his ordinary life and learns to balance between it and superhero adventures. How successful this attempt will be, will show in the new episodes. The release date of the 2nd season of the series Invincible will be in 2022.
Adaptation of the comic book for the TV screen took Robert Kirkman himself, and the filming of the project trusted Jeff Allen. Sandra Oh, who stars in Killing Eve, Stephen Yang, who stars in Kirkman’s The Walking Dead, and J.K. Simons, known for his Oscar-winning film Obsession, was asked to voice the main characters. According to Robert Kirkman, he has enough material to shoot season 7, but it all depends on the project’s ratings. The first season was praised by critics, noting that this is not another trite series about superheroes, but a real and honest story of growing up, touching on important topics for teenagers. The sequel’s release date is 2022.
