The second season of Diary of a Future President returns to Disney+ on Wednesday, August 18 with all ten episodes available for binge-worthy streaming. Continuing the origin story of Cuban American and future leader Elena Cañero-Reed as she enters the seventh grade and recounted through excerpts from 13-year-old Elena s diary, this coming-of-age series follows Elena through the ups and downs of middle school which sets her on the path to becoming the President of the United States.

Diary of a Future President is created by showrunner Ilana Peña (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) and loosely inspired by Peña s own adolescence, Diary of a Future President has been lauded for its authentic portrayal of a Latinx tween and her friends and family.

Tess Romero stars as young Elena Cañero-Reed alongside executive producer Gina Rodriguez (Jane the Virgin) who features as grown-up Elena who reappears throughout the season as Elena s future self and conscience that guides her through middle school and towards the White House.

Recurring cast includes Jessica Marie Garcia as Gabi s colleague Camila, Carmina Garay as Elena s best friend Sasha, Sanai Victoria as Elena s classmate Melissa, Harmeet Pandey as Elena s friend Jessica, as well as Brandon Severs and Nathan Arenas as Bobby s friends Liam and Danny.

Peña shares, We are so excited for season 2 and cannot wait to share this next chapter of Diary with viewers. This season, Elena will inch closer to the bright future we know she achieves, but like any origin story, her journey is not without its hurdles and heartaches. She and her family and friends will all continue to grow up and come into their own this year. I promise you will laugh, I am pretty sure you will cry, and most of all, I hope this season is as meaningful to watch as it was for all of us to make.
