«On October 1,1989 seven extraordinary humans were born. On July 31,2020, they return.»
Netflix announced the highly anticipated return of their action-packed sci-fi drama, The Umbrella Academy, ahead of its July 31 premiere date.
The ensemble cast of the Umbrella Academy recreated the fan-favorite moment from the first season. During the pilot, each cast member busted out their dance moves while Tiffany’s ’80s pop hit, «I Think We’re Alone Now» played in the scene. Towards the end of the promo, Justin H. Min, who plays Ben Hargreeves, showed off the sign, which has the premiere date on it.
As a fan of the show, I think Min is an interesting choice to make the announcement. Ben appeared as a hallucination to his drug-addicted brother, Klaus Hargreeves (Robert Sheehan). After sobering up, Klaus realized his real superpowers were kicking in: he was talking to his dead brother from beyond the grave, he wasn’t a hallucination at all.
