"I am blown away by the creative freedom Amazon gives me, and I can't wait to reveal where this journey is going to take us," said Soloway in a statement.

Transparent stars Jeffrey Tambor, the patriarch of the Pfefferman family who comes out as a transgender and begins to live his life as Maura. Judith Light plays his ex-wife while Gaby Hoffman, Amy Landecker and Jay Duplass play his children. All will return for the second and third seasons.
Soloway based Transparent on her own experience with a transgender parent.
Transparent season two will shoot in California next month and will return to Amazon this fall.
