“Jury Duty Season 2 Renewed and Filmed by Amazon”

Amazon’s hit candid camera show, “Jury Duty,” is making a return for a second season on Amazon Prime Video. The first season, which aired in 2023 on Amazon’s Freevee, captured the hearts of viewers with its candid camera comedy starring the unsuspecting Ronald Gladden. In season 1, actors, including James Marsden playing himself, improvised their roles as caricatures of fellow jurors, judges, and courtroom personalities while Gladden remained unaware of the ruse.

The second season of “Jury Duty” has already been filmed and will reportedly take place at a corporate retreat setting in the Agoura Hills suburb of Los Angeles, leaving the witness stand behind. Showrunner Cody Heller expressed her initial fear of pulling off the candid camera concept, but the success of the show ultimately came from the cast. Ronald Gladden’s performance restored Heller’s faith in humanity, showcasing the power of genuine human reactions.

James Marsden also shared his excitement about the high-stakes nature of filming “Jury Duty,” highlighting the challenge of capturing authentic reactions in one take without any room for error. Gladden, who initially believed the scenario was real, later embraced the candid camera reveal and even went on to sign with Gersh and secure his own deal with Amazon. The anticipation for the second season of “Jury Duty” is high, as viewers eagerly await the hilarious and heartwarming moments that come from unsuspecting participants caught in the midst of a comedic setup.
