The Russian Doll season 2 trailer has been released and it shows the comedy-drama will continue to be a time-tripping joy.

With less than a month to go before it returns to our screens,  has given a first look at its Emmy Award-winning show and all the bizarre twists and turns it’s set to take.

 of a never ending Groundhog Day style time loop kept us hooked from start to finish in series one.

The new trailer shows a mysterious portal through time that opens up in the New York City subway.

Nadia Vulvokov (Natasha Lyonne, who previously delighted fans when she confirmed that ) and Alan Zaveri (Charlie Barnett) are confronted with a different kind of supernatural force on their crazy journey.

Following their escape from the time loop in season one, the returning co-stars once again face a time travel dilemma after boarding an underground train that takes them back in time to several different eras and places, including 1980s New York.

They also appear to be in search of a fabled cache of gold, which mysteriously vanished without a trace.

Series one’s plot centered on game developer Nadia who died repeatedly the night of her 36th birthday party and kept waking up the next day only to return to the same scenario in the host’s quirky bathroom.

Nadia went on a mission to figure out why this bizarre situation was happening but her investigations kept being hampered by her accidental death in every episode.

She came across Alan in an elevator who happened to also be going through the same thing daily.  The pair become plas and soon realise they have their freakish experience in common.

In the series finale, the two become trapped in two separate timelines.

Nadia saves the alternate version of Alan in hers, while Alan saves the alternate Nadia in his and therefore breaks the loop.

The new trailer shows, however, that it won’t be back to normal for the pair.

Nadia is seen on the New York subway in the 1980’s when Horse (played by Brendan Sexton III), the homeless man she befriended in the first series, yells: ‘Is that your train?’

Things become even more bizarre, as Nadia gets entangled with a family that ‘lost its gold twice on a train’.

The second season of Russian Doll premieres on Netflix on April 20.
