'Space Force's Diana Silvers, Jimmy O'Yang, Tawny Newsome & Ben Schwartz Address Season 2 Cliffhanger

Almost two years after its series premiere on Netflix, Space Force Season 2 has made its way into the streaming giant's orbit this weekend for seven laugh-out-loud episodes that will no doubt leave you wanting more. The Steve Carell and Greg Daniels-created sitcom, which premiered in 2020, picks up at a disciplinary trial just weeks after the U.S. Space Force led by Gen. Mark Naird (Carell) comes under fire for disobeying direct orders. Things look pretty dire at first but take a welcomed turn throughout the season with the characters bonding outside of Space Force, though it looks like the team itself is on the verge of disbandment. As things suddenly perk right back up and into place, it's then and there in Episode 7's "The Hack" that things are not exactly what they seem.

With prior events culminating into a moment of togetherness for the Space Force team in the season finale and Capt. Angela Ali (Tawny Newsome) taking on the role of Major amid her ongoing PTSD, things quickly take a turn following the happy news after Dr. Chan (Jimmy O. Yang) notices something large looming in the newly acquired Hawaiian telescope, which NASA no longer has authority over due to Washington designating Space Force as the lead in its new American Strategic Defense Plan. Naird, who internally panics and audiences can only imagine is internally screaming, is promptly calmed by his Space Force team with Dr. Mallory (John Malkovich) leading the team in Naird's calming song, "Kokomo" by The Beach Boys.

While we are not sure what's to come, the cast, including Ben Schwartz, Tawny Newsome, Jimmy O. Yang and Diana Silvers reveal to PopCulture.com host Tania Hussain exclusively what could possibly lie ahead for the Space Force team if and when Netflix renews the series for Season 3 — or a possible movie?
