When last we saw the Doom Patrol, Mr. Nobody was defeated and DC’s strangest group of heroes had been had been shrunk to mini-size and stranded on a toy race track. Now in an exclusive trailer premiere for season 2, we see “Robotman” Cliff Steele (Brendan Fraser), “Negative Man” Larry Trainor (Matt Bomer), “Elasti-Woman” Rita Farr (April Bowlby), “Crazy Jane” (Diane Guerrero), and “Cyborg” Victor Stone (Joivan Wade) also have to deal with their feelings of betrayal by “The Chief” Niles Caulder (Timothy Dalton), as well as their own individual baggage. They also have a new member: Meet The Chief’s kid! The powers Dorothy Spinner (Abigail Shapiro) possesses are a mystery, but could — no biggie — end the world.

Doom Patrol season 2 kicks off with three episodes released on Thursday, June 25 on HBO Max with episodes debuting simultaneously on DC Universe.
