'Betty' Season Two Trailer: The Skate Kitchen Girls Return In June To HBO

Based on creator Crystal Moselle’s 2018 Sundance hit “Skate Kitchen,” the spiritual spin-off series—which in a way restarted the film as a series with much of the same cast— will return to HBO for a second season this June. Still helmed and created by Moselle, “Betty” follows five young women on journeys of self-discovery against the backdrop of New York City’s male-dominated skateboarding scene. “Betty” will also be available to stream on HBO Max this year.

In season two, the show’s five young female protagonists are stepping firmly into womanhood and tackling all the challenges it brings. As they navigate the pressures of adulthood, their male counterparts start to step up, step in, and become true allies, forming a united front for the greater good. Set in the last chapter of 2020, the season captures the late summer and early fall COVID-19 months in New York City, where masks and outside activities are the norm. This season stars Nina Moran as Kirt, Dede Lovelace as Janay, Moonbear as Honeybear, Rachelle Vinberg as Camille, and Ajani Russell as Indigo.

Independent, strong-willed, and discerning, these women are brought together by skateboarding – but their bond goes far beyond the sport.
