Meanwhile, exec producer Brad Falchuk spilled the beans about what fans can expect in the show’s second season, which takes place a few years after the events of the first, reports Deadline.
“Dean Munsch [Jamie Lee Curtis] has moved on to great success, she’s abolished the Greek system in the country…she’s written her book, she’s traveled the world, and is like, ‘I need a new mission’,” Falchuk said, revealing Munsch winds up owning a hospital, with Zayday (Keke Palmer) training there to become a doctor.
As for the Chanels, the girls have “flipped and taken their education seriously while in the institution,”; and will also become medical students.
Season two of Scream Queens will air in the fall.
