Alfie Allen is a villainous tech billionaire in The Institute season 2 trailer

It’s a good time to be a Stephen King fan. The Carrie TV show adaptation (which may extend beyond its first season if series creator and showrunner Mike Flanagan has his way) premieres this Wednesday on Prime Video, and next month, the mania will continue with the return of The Institute on MGM+. On Monday, MGM+ unveiled the trailer for season two of The Institute, based on Stephen King’s 2019 novel of the same name, and confirmed the sci-fi thriller series will be back with new episodes in November. Season two follows Luke Ellis (Joe Freeman) and the other kids with psychic powers who were kidnapped by the shadowy organization known as the Institute, which experiments on them under the guise of saving the world. After the events of season one, the Institute remains powerful, and they need real evidence so people will believe them for good. “Maybe the only way to destroy this is from the inside,” Luke suggests.
