Netflix show The Umbrella Academy has teased a new trailer and track from its creator, My Chemical Romance’s Gerard Way, set to be released today (July 8).
In an Instagram post, Netflix shared a ’70s-inspired graphic of what appear to be lyrics, with an illustration of Way in the centre. The post came with the caption, “feelin groovy. see u tmrw.” The aesthetic follows on from previous posts that share a similar retro feel.

In May, Netflix announced the second season of The Umbrella Academy will arrive on July 31. The announcement was accompanied by a clip of the cast dancing to ‘I Think We’re Alone Now’, recreating a scene from the first season and riffing on the pandemic-induced lockdown. Season two was confirmed by Way back in April 2019 with a short trailer.
The Umbrella Academy‘s debut season landed in February last year. Upon its release, NME gave the season a four-star review, calling it “a vibrant antidote to brooding superhero stories”.
