Overview
- Production is underway in Los Angeles on an eight-episode second season, and outlets reported Wednesday that six actors have joined in guest roles.
- The newly announced guest cast includes Taron Egerton, Jamie Chung, Benjamin Norris, Dylan Arnold, Jessy Hodges, and Milan Carter.
- Rachel Sennott created, executive produces and stars in the series as Maia, and Season 2 will bring back leads Odessa A’zion, Jordan Firstman, Josh Hutcherson and True Whitaker.
- HBO ordered Season 2 early in November 2025 after only three episodes had aired, a move driven in part by the show’s reported live-plus-three audience of about 2 million near the end of Season 1.
- HBO and the production are keeping exact character details private for now, and casting of high-profile guests could help the show sustain or grow its audience while a release date has not yet been announced.
