As Adults returns tonight for Season 2, the show apparently has Julia Fox‘s witchy ways to thank.
Lucy Freyer, who plays Billie Schaeffer on the FX comedy, recently revealed that the Season 1 guest star “put a curse on” the Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw-created series, which releases all Season 2 episodes Thursday at 9pm ET/6pm PT on Hulu.
“She was like, ‘I wanna come back next season, and the season you don’t bring me back is the season you’re gonna get canceled,'” she told Refinery29 Australia. “And I was like, she put a curse on us, and I believe it. And now, she has to be in every season of the show for as long as it runs. And I’m like, ‘OK!'”
Freyer added, “The fact that she wants to come back, this feels like a blessing. She’s the best. She improvs so much, and she’s so funny. They wrote the script for her, obviously, both times. And then, there were times she’d come in, she’d be like, ‘OK, I don’t think I’d say this, I think I’d say this.'”
In Adults, a group of five 20-somethings in New York City attempt to master adulthood while sharing their friend Samir’s (Malik Elassal) family home he has to himself. The show also stars Freyer, Owen Thiele, Amita Rao and Jack Innanen.
Julia Fox @juliafox is returning for Season 2 of Adults (as herself, obviously), and Lucy Freyer says Fox wants to be part of the show forever. She put a “curse” on the TV show, saying they’ll be cancelled if they don’t keep bringing her back. We low-key love this. She’s so iconic. #adults #lucyfreyer #juliafox #fx #adultsseason2
After playing Paul Baker’s (Innanen) old friend in the Season 1 episode “Roast Chicken”, Fox returns for another cameo as herself in Season 2, which also features such guest stars as Gaten Matarazzo, Raven-Symoné, Jake Shane, Isaac Powell, Ben Marshall, Zosia Mamet, Susie Essman and more.
