Hulu has released the official trailer for Season 2 of “Deli Boys,” the acclaimed crime comedy sitcom, on Wednesday, May 6.

Created by Abdullah Saeed, “Deli Boys” stars Asif Ali and Saagar Shaikh as Mir and Raj, brothers whose Pakistani-American immigrant father (Iqbal Theba) became a multimillionaire and the head of a successful deli chain ABC Deli. When the show begins, their father dies, and the chain’s parent company is exposed for white collar crimes, forcing the brothers to work in the original deli. There, they learn from their father’s right-hand woman, Lucky (Poorna Jagannathan), that the chain was a front for a criminal drug enterprise, and are forced to step into the family business while keeping their activity a secret from their loved ones.

The cast of “Deli Boys” is rounded out by Alfie Fuller and Brian George. Season 2 will see the addition of “Saturday Night Live” alum Fred Armisen, playing a casino owner Max Sugar. Andrew Rannells, Kumail Nanjiani, and Tan France return as guest stars, while Season 2 will feature new guests Lilly Singh and Robin Thede.

The official synopsis for Season 2 reads: “Turns out inheriting a criminal empire was the easy part… and more money really does mean more problems. This season on “Deli Boys,” the Dars are drowning in dirty cash and Philly’s sketchiest crooks are circling. Enter Max Sugar: casino king, money launderer, and Lucky’s new crush who turns laundering into a chaotic situationship. Raj plots revenge on Ahmad, Mir tries to expand DarCo without blowing it up, and Philly D.A. Andrew Chadwater hopes one big bust will make him mayor.”

“Deli Boys” first premiered on March 6, 2025. The series received positive reviews; with IndieWire writing that the show is “Not too dark, too violent, or too explicit to immediately watch all the way through. It’s bizarre and hilarious and fun enough to keep a viewer hooked, and hopefully to merit a second season.”

“Deli Boys” was developed by Jenni Konner and Nora Silver for Jenni Konner Productions. Michelle Nader showruns and executive produces alongside Saeed, Konner, and Silver. The series is produced by 20th Television under the Onyx Collective banner.

All six episodes of “Deli Boys” Season 2 will release on Thursday, May 28 on Hulu. Watch the full trailer for the season below.
