Audible, Inc.'s hit queer action-comedy Hot White Heist will return for season two on March 7 with six half-hour episodes available exclusively on Audible. Hot White Heist was created, written and directed by Adam Goldman, who also produces the project in collaboration with Alan Cumming. Bowen Yang, Cynthia Nixon, Jane Lynch, Shannon Woodward, Abbi Jacobson, Bianca Del Rio, Stephanie Beatriz, Katya Zamolodchikova, Cheyenne Jackson, and Tony Kushner will reprise their roles for season two alongside newly added stars Raúl Esparza, Sara Ramírez, Joel Kim Booster, Ian McKellen, Jane Krakowski, Trixie Mattel, Yvie Oddly, Sarah SteeleJesse James Keitel and more.

“Season one of Hot White Heist shattered our expectations for a scripted comedy and became a must-listen for so many of our customers,” said Rachel Ghiazza, Audible’s Chief Content Officer. “Not only does Season 2 double down on our brilliant casting with the addition of Sara Ramírez and Jane Krakowski, but this season’s plot is an even wilder romp, with higher-stakes adventure and bigger laughs, proving that Broadway Video’s ingenious storytelling continues to raise the bar at Audible.”

Bowen Yang says, “I’m thrilled that our sticky heist gang is back for more thrills and debauchery. In season two the stakes are higher, the action is next-level and the story is even more absurd in the best way possible. I’m available for hire if you are planning a heist.”

Hot on the heels of Hot White Heist’s critically acclaimed first season, Judy Fink and his team of amateur heist experts are back – and they’re in bigger trouble than ever. Two years after successfully melting down the top secret sperm bank under the Space Needle, the CLITO collective (the Coalition of Lesbians, Inclusive To Others) is thriving on their newly acquired private island, Lesbos 2. All is well in their queer utopia. Or is it? Investigative reporter Sarah Keebler (Sarah Steele) is piecing together the crew's previous heist for her bombshell true-crime podcast – and getting dangerously close to the truth.
