Brooklyn Nine-Nine has released another new trailer for its upcoming final and “most ambitious” season, which will premiere August 12 on NBC. The cop comedy wrapped production on its eighth and final season in June.
Given everything that has happened in our real world since the previous season–including in the policing world–these final 10 episodes should be poignant, tackle some issues, and of course somehow manage to still be funny. While we don’t really know much about the plotlines ahead, we do know that the writers had four episodes written for the final season and then threw them all out amid the political unrest in the US specifically focused around police. Check out the new trailer below, which does offer a few clues about where things are heading.
The show stars Andy Samberg, Stephanie Beatriz, Melissa Fumero, Terry Crews, Joe Lo Truglio, Andre Braugher, Dirk Blocker, and Joel McKinnon Miller. Brooklyn Nine-Nine, which follows the story of a police unit in Brooklyn, originally aired on Fox for five seasons before the show was canceled. NBC picked it up for season six, and then extended it for two more.
Samberg was recently announced to be part of the celebrity voice cast for the Borderlands spin-off Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands. He’s joined by Wanda Sykes and Will Arnett, who are also lending their voices to the early 2022 game.
