The explosive season 1 finale answered some of our questions, such as the origins of GBI agent Will's (Ramón Rodríguez) name, but left us on an almighty cliffhanger as, after being saved by Will from kidnapper James Ulster, the extent of Angie's (Erika Christensen) injuries from the ordeal started to become clear as doctors informed the special agent that there was a chance his partner may never walk again. Season 2 promises to focus on Angie's recovery while also delving deeper into the identity of Will’s birth mother.

The rest of the regular cast return for this season, including Iantha Richardson as Faith, Sonja Sohn as Anjela, Mark-Paul Gosselaar as Paul and Jake McLaughlin as Michael. Joining the cast this season are Susan Kelechi Watson and Marvel star Clark Gregg.

How to watch Will Trent season 2 in the US

Will Trent season 2 premieres on Tuesday, February 20 at 8 pm ET on ABC in the US, with episodes going out in the same slot weekly thereafter. 

If you have ABC in your cable plan, you're all set, but otherwise you can use live TV streaming services to stream channels over the internet. ABC is available on Fubo, DirecTV Stream, Hulu with Live TV or YouTube TV, and you can find prices for the various services below.

If you're not planning to watch live, you can also catch episodes the day after they've aired on Hulu (which is also where you can binge season 1 of the crime drama), which costs $7.99 per month basic or $17.99 per month ad-free. You can also subscribe to each tier annually and receive two months free.

You can also get Hulu via the Disney Bundle though, which gets you that streamer and Disney Plus for $9.99 each month. You can pay more for ad-free options and sports fans can also opt-in to have ESPN Plus added on top, which creates some great bundle savings. 

Can I watch Will Trent season 2 in the UK?

There's no word on a UK release date for Will Trent season 2 just yet, however season 1 arrived on Disney Plus after it finished airing in the US, so we can assume that'll also be the case here.

Both being Disney owned platforms, Disney Plus is the home of ABC content in the UK, so, as mentioned, you can check out season 1 of Will Trent and a host of other ABC programming including Abbott Elementary and Station 19
