After serving up a huge dose of talent in its first season, World of Dance is returning for another run with its second season, which premieres in May on NBC.

Jenna Dewan will return as host and mentor, while Jennifer Lopez, Ne-Yo and Derek Hough will comprise the judging panel once again.

Season 2 will offer a new twist on the competition, as acts from Season 1 will return to compete with new hopefuls for a massive $1 million prize, People shares. Returning dancers include Season 1 runner-up, Eva Igo, the season's highest-scoring Junior Team, The Lab, and Royal Flux.

The format of the show features four age-based categories fighting it out for the grand prize, with Junior (17 years old and under, 1-4 dancers), Junior Team (17 years old and under, 5-15 dancers — a new category this season), Upper (18 years old and older, 1-4 dancers), and Upper Team (18 years old and older, 5-15 dancers) dancers doing their best each week to showcase their skills.
