What is the upcoming season all about?

The trailer for Nine Perfect Strangers season 2 was released on April 29, 2025, and is available on the official Hulu YouTube channel. The trailer begins with nine strangers receiving an invitation for a ten-day retreat at Tranquillum House, a health and wellness resort.

David (played by Mark Strong) states that he almost threw the invitation out, suggesting it is a setup since all nine of them have been chosen randomly.

He even questions Masha about whether he's been invited here for his money. Masha replies that he's been invited here to heal. While the strangers get to know each other, Masha arrives and begins her programs.

The nine strangers are seen going through various activities as she informs them that this whole ordeal is a cleansing of their minds. They are made to consume a psychedelic drink, which takes them on a journey to their past painful memory, to deal with the pain that has been hidden away.

David even states that the experience was as real as the actual memory when it occurred.

Towards the end of the clip, Masha also informs Helena that the group has been carefully chosen. Scenes are shown where the group begins to slowly recognize each other as well.

Masha is seen losing her mind when Helena angrily blames her for damaging her patients even more, rather than healing them. Multiple scenes of the strangers losing their sanity are shown before the trailer finishes.
