Fairy tales may be filled with happily ever afters, but Sabrina and Daphne Grimm still have quite a few mysteries to solve before they can find theirs.
Apple TV has released the official trailer for the second season of “The Sisters Grimm,” offering another look at the magical—and often rather dangerous—world waiting for the sisters when the animated series returns October 2. Six new episodes are headed our way, continuing the story of two very different sisters who have learned that being descendants of the Brothers Grimm comes with considerably more adventure than they probably expected.
After all, discovering that fairy tales and their characters are real was only the beginning.
Based on Michael Buckley’s bestselling book series, “The Sisters Grimm” follows Sabrina and Daphne as they investigate the mysteries surrounding Ferryport Landing, a place where the characters and creatures generations have encountered through fairy tales aren’t confined to the pages of a book.
Season two picks up one year after the mysterious disappearance of their parents, with Sabrina and Daphne continuing their search for answers while uncovering even more secrets hidden throughout Ferryport Landing. Naturally, that means new mysteries and adventures are waiting, but the sisters at least have one rather important advantage on their side: each other.
That relationship remains one of the most interesting pieces of the series. Sabrina and Daphne may approach their strange new reality very differently, but those differences are also what allow them to work so well together. When your family history is tied to some of the world’s most famous fairy tales, having a sister beside you while trying to untangle everything certainly helps.
Ariel Winter returns to voice Sabrina alongside Leah Newman as Daphne, with Laraine Newman as Relda, Abubakar Salim as Charming, Billy Harris as Puck and Harry Trevaldwyn as Mirror.
Behind the scenes, “The Sisters Grimm” was developed by Amy Higgins, who also serves as showrunner, and Erica Rothschild. Titmouse once again produces the animation, with Sage Cotugno serving as supervising director.
There has always been something fun about taking fairy tales audiences think they know and asking what happens beyond the familiar versions of those stories. “The Sisters Grimm” gets to go a step further by putting its young heroes directly inside a world where those tales have consequences, histories and plenty of secrets that haven’t made their way into the storybooks.
And Sabrina and Daphne clearly aren’t finished turning those pages just yet.
“The Sisters Grimm” returns with six new episodes October 2 on Apple TV.
