Netflix Series ‘Running Point’ Starring Kate Hudson is Picked up for a Second Season

Popular new Netflix series starring Kate Hudson, ‘Running Point,’ has officially been picked up for a second season, just over a week after their season one premiere on February 27th.

Hudson says in her announcement video on Instagram, “A good basketball team owner knows when to listen to the fans. So we hear you, and so did Netflix. ‘Running Point’ is officially coming back for Season 2!” Thank you so much everyone who watched the show so far. I’m just beyond thrilled because you’re really the reason why we’re able to come back and do another season. So thank you and we’ll see you next season!”

‘Running Point’ focuses on Isla Gordon (Hudson), daughter of the owner of pro basketball team, the Los Angeles Waves. The team’s president, Isla’s brother, is forced to resign after an incident, and next in line for the job is Isla herself. The show navigates ex party girl, Isla’s journey in proving herself that she was the right person to pass the team down to.

In fact, the president of the Los Angeles Lakers, Jeanie Buss, executive produces the show alongside Hudson, and the infamous Mindy Kaling who also is a writer on the show. This comedy also stars actors such as Brenda Song, Drew Tarver, Scott McArthur, Chet Hanks and more.

Kaling tells The Hollywood Reporter, “We are so thrilled to be able to deliver season two of Running Point to the fans of the show…We still cannot believe the response from audiences. Thank you to everyone who has watched…Thank you to our partners at Netflix, Warner Brothers, our star who brought this show to life, Kate Hudson, and executive producers Jeanie Buss and Linda Rambis, without whom there would be no Running Point.”

The first season of ‘Running Point,’ is available to watch on Netflix now.
