Yellowstone star Josh Lucas looks totally different in the upcoming second season of Palm Royale, coming to Apple TV+ next month.

The cult comedy stars Kristen Wiig as a determined social climber who infiltrates a high society clique in 1960s Florida.

Despite receiving just 56 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, the first season has gradually built up a passionate following who claim it’s been “underrated” by critics.

 

 

Thankfully, it also proved popular enough to warrant a second season, which will reunite Wiig’s Maxine Dellacorte-Simmons with Lucas, portraying her on-screen husband Douglas Darby Dellacorte-Simmons.

Lucas, who has also starred in the films Sweet Home Alabama and Ford v Ferrari, is well-known to Yellowstone fans for portraying a younger version of Kevin Costner’s lead character John Dutton in flashbacks.

However, he looks completely different in the first-look at Palm Royale season two, swapping his cowboy hat and denim for a leather jacket, sunglasses and pilot’s cap.

Fans who have already tuned into the first season will have seen Lucas donning a 60s-style haircut, complete with sideburns, and a clean-shaven look.

The next season will pick up with Maxine struggling to handle Douglas’ affair as well as the approaching birth of his baby with another woman.

If you’ve not already caught up with Palm Royale’s first season, now’s the perfect opportunity as the uninitiated still have until 12th November before season two starts.

Viewers have been discussing how underrated the first outing was, with one Redditor posting: “Okay, what is up with the rating? This show is fabulous.”

“A lot of people don’t understand the tone of the show,” someone else agreed.

“It’s camp, it’s fun, it’s a technicolor spectacular I wish everyone could just enjoy it and let it grow for a few more seasons.”

A third fan commented: “This is my favorite new show in the past few years! What talent! What writing!

“So incredibly funny and fabulous. Love the fashion and the cinematography. Every week keeps me wanting more! Love is an understatement!”

And the series also has several five-star Google reviews, with one viewer penning: “Love Kristen Wiig. Hilarious, comedic genius.
