The Gifted ended its freshman season with our heroes on the brink of civil war, as Polaris (Emma Dumont) and Andy (Percy Hynes White) chose to join the Hellfire Club’s Inner Circle along with the Frost sisters (Skyler Samuels), abandoning their loved ones in the Mutant Underground for a more proactive (i.e. aggressive) stance against the humans who have been oppressing them.
Season 2 picks up six months after the events of the finale, with Polaris now on the verge of giving birth and anti-mutant sentiment at an all-time high following her destruction of Senator Montez’s plane. In IGN’s exclusive sneak peek promo and key art from the new season, the divisions are obvious, with the promo promising that every character will be forced to pick a side in the upcoming conflict.
