Apple TV+’s beloved animated preschool series, “Interrupting Chicken,”   returns for season two Friday, September 29

Apple TV+ is excited to share a sneak peek clip from season two of the adorable animated preschool series, “Interrupting Chicken,” premiering on Friday, September 29. Based on the 2011 Caldecott Honor-winning book series written and illustrated by David Ezra Stein, “Interrupting Chicken” introduces children to the joy of creative writing - with a young little chicken named Piper who has a habit of interrupting storytime! Every time Piper hears a story, she can’t help but jump in, ask questions and let her imagination run wild as she tries to fill in details, guess what happens next or insert herself in the middle of the action to help save the day.In addition to seeing the return of beloved characters like The Big Bad Wolf and Captain Claw, season two follows Piper helping Cinderella get to the ball, surf with a sea monster, and build a Royal Rollercoaster with the King, among other adventures! 

 

In partnership with Mercury Filmworks, the series stars the voice talents of three time Emmy Award winner Sterling K. Brown ("This Is Us," "American Fiction”) as “Papa,” Juliet Donenfeld (“Pete the Cat”) as “Piper,” Sarah Elizabeth Thompson as “CJ,” Maximus Riegel (“Klaus”) as “Benjamin,” Luke Lowe (“Big City Greens”) as “Duckston,” Jakari Fraser (“Spidey and his Amazing Friends”) as “Theodore,” and more. This season also boasts impressive guest stars including multi-Grammy Award winner Wyclef Jean, who also performs an original song, Paula Poundstone (“Inside Out”) and more. “Interrupting Chicken” was developed by Emmy Award winner Ron Holsey who serves as executive producer alongside Stein, Loris Kramer Lunsford, and Clint Eland.
