Â
Apple TV+ today released the trailer for season two of âHarriet the Spy,â based on the iconic childrenâs novel chronicling the coming-of-age adventures of the irrepressible Harriet M. Welsch, premiering on May 5, 2023. Produced by The Jim Henson Company, the animated series stars Golden Globe nominee Beanie Feldstein (“Lady Bird,” âBooksmartâ) as Harriet, a fiercely independent and adventurous 11-year-old girl, alongside Emmy Award winner Jane Lynch (âThe Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”) as Ole Golly, Harrietâs larger-than-life, no-nonsense nanny.
Â
âHarriet the Spyâ follows the outspoken and perpetually curious 11-year-old Harriet M. Welsch. More than anything, Harriet wants to be a writer, and in order to be a good writer, sheâll need to know everything. And to know everything means sheâll need to spy ⊠on everyone! This season, follow Harriet as she navigates letting go, growing up, and celebrating the gift of today.
