Jack Innanen Brings 'Adults' Cast to Tribeca for Season 2 Premiere Debut

Jack Innanen stepped onto the red carpet Thursday evening (June 11) for the season two premiere of the comedy series 'Adults' at SVA Theatre in New York City.

The 27-year-old was accompanied by fellow cast members Malik Elassal, Lucy Freyer, Amita Rao, and Owen Thiele, alongside series creators Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw.

During the event, organizers unveiled plans for a prequel installment that will dive into the backstory of Innanen's character, Paul Baker. "We're so excited for the opportunity to show fans how this friend group came to be," Kronengold and Shaw said in a statement. "We love a good origin story, and we can't wait for you to see where the radioactive spider bit Paul Baker."

The episode, penned by the show's creators, drops Friday, July 31st on FXX and Hulu at 1pm ET/10am PT. A limited run will also be available on Hulu's YouTube channel, as well as FX's TikTok and Instagram pages.

The main season launches August 27th on FXX and Hulu, featuring guest appearances from Susie Essman, Raven-Symone, Gaten Matarazzo, Jake Shane, Isaac Powell, Ben Marshall, and Zosia Mamet.

Over eight episodes, the ensemble navigates a fresh batch of scenarios about adulthood. The storylines explore questions like how to handle discovering someone younger inherited your fake ID and became cooler than you, reconciling a genuine love for a mundane desk job, understanding why family visits trigger regression into old patterns, and navigating requests for change while craving stability. The group finds themselves caught in elaborate schemes to sidestep honest conversations and protect each other's feelings, repeatedly discovering new ways to stumble through life's complications while remaining committed to showing up for one another.

Innanen's appearance comes on the heels of reports that he turned down an opportunity to join the cast of 'Heated Rivalry' season two. The actor had long expressed interest in the project and was fan-cast for roles including Troy Barrett and Wyatt Hayes. Though he received an offer, scheduling conflicts with his existing commitments forced him to decline.

Beyond 'Adults,' Innanen stars in Netflix's 'Big Mistakes,' which secured a second season pickup following its spring premiere.
