After making the fans wait for a long time, the second season of Arcane has finally brought a full-length trailer. Along with this, the release window for Arcane Season 2 is also out. The trailer video sets the stage for the return of its beloved characters and dives deeper into the ongoing conflict between Piltover and Zaun. Here is what you can expect from Arcane Season 2 Episode 1.

In Arcane Season 1, we witness the conflict between the cities of Piltover and Zaun. The story dives into deeper issues and themes of class struggle, political intrigue, and personal issues as well. It is seen that we follow Vi and her sister, Powder (later known as Jinx), whose lives are torn apart by a failed heist. This is where the two chose opposing paths. As Piltover pioneers magical technology called Hextech, tensions rise between the elite and the oppressed undercity of Zaun. Vi allies with Caitlyn, a Piltover enforcer, while Jinx spirals into chaos, manipulated by the sinister Silco. 

The season ends in a shocking cliffhanger as Jinx launches a deadly attack on the Piltover Council. This is exactly where Arcane Season 2 Episode 1 is expected to pick up. Following Jinx’s missile strike on the Piltover Council, tensions will likely skyrocket, pushing the city to the brink of chaos. Vi may find herself torn between stopping Jinx’s rampage and protecting Piltover from further destruction, while Jayce and Viktor’s growing divide over Hextech’s future will take center stage. 

Shraddha Kapoor and Rajkummar Rao’s Stree 2 have been ruling the box office like anything. However, initially, when the first few posters of this horror-comedy were released, eagle-eyed fans couldn’t ignore its striking resemblance to the Stranger Things poster. Director Amar Kaushik has finally shared his two cents on the same and said it was purely coincidental.

“We did not realize it honestly,” Amar said while sharing that when the designer had sent that Stree 2 poster, they liked it and it was much later they realized that its resemblance with Stranger Things was quite uncanny. “I know the audience is more intelligent than the filmmaker. They will catch plagiarism. So, I know what the audience feels but the intention was not to copy. It was co-incidental. Had I known, we would have avoided it,” Kaushik added.

Several nuances around Stree 2 were also alleged to have drawn great reference from Harry Potter and when asked about this, Amar denied even watching the film series. “My team has watched and they keep telling me and advising me if any scene is even remotely similar to the ones in other series,” said Amar further admitting that he has indeed watched the other one in reference – Stranger Things.
