The Umbrella Academy S02 Preview: Luther's Fight Club, Tanks & Dancing

Hard to believe that there's only a little more than two weeks to go before Netflix's The Umbrella Academy comes time-crashing back into our lives for a second season. Still, two weeks is still to weeks so to help pass the time, the fine folks at the streaming service have offered up a new set of preview images that somehow find a way to tell us a lot while also telling us very little. This time, everyone gets a little love with looks at Luther (Tom Hopper) in Fight Club mode and Klaus (Robert Sheehan) enjoying the cult life, while Diego (David Castañeda), Ben (Justin H. Min), and Allison (Emmy Raver-Lampman) look concerned. In-between, we've got new faces, a tank, and even a little bit of dancing with Vanya (Ellen Page).

Five warned his family (so, so many times) that using his powers to escape from Vanya's 2019 apocalypse was risky. Well, he was right – the time jump scatters the siblings in time in and around Dallas, Texas. Over a three year period. Starting in 1960. Some, having been stuck in the past for years, have built lives and moved on, certain they're the only ones who survived. Five is the last to land, smack dab in the middle of a nuclear doomsday, which – spoiler alert! – turns out is a result of the group's disruption of the timeline (déjà vu, anyone?).

The Umbrella Academy must find a way to reunite, figure out what caused doomsday, put a stop to it, and return to the present timeline to stop that other apocalypse. All while being hunted by a trio of ruthless Swedish assassins. Joining them on their time-twisted mission are Texas housewife Sissy; a devoted husband and natural-born leader, Raymond; and "chameleon" Lila, who can be as brilliant or as clinically insane as the situation requires. Unpredictable, mischievous, and sarcastic, Lila's gifted with a twisted sense of humor.

The Umbrella Academy season 2 stars Ellen Page as Vanya Hargreeves aka The White Violin aka Number Seven, Tom Hopper as Luther Hargreeves aka Spaceboy aka Number One, David Castañeda as Diego Hargreeves aka The Kraken aka Number Two, Emmy Raver-Lampman as Allison Hargreeves aka The Rumor aka Number Three, Robert Sheehan as Klaus Hargreeves aka The Séance aka Number Four, Aidan Gallagher as Five Hargreeves aka The Boy, and Justin H. Min as Ben Hargreeves aka The Horror aka Number Six.
