What to Expect From Season 2
Season 2 picks up with Sophie (Brittany Snow) and Margo (Malin Åkerman) still on bad terms following the explosive Season 1 finale — but “old secrets and new foes” force the dangerous duo back together, with the central question becoming: are they the hunters, or the hunted? IMDb
Speaking at the Golden Globes in January 2026, Brittany Snow teased that the upcoming season will be “more steamy” than the first and confirmed a major character death is coming. IMDb Consider yourselves warned.
The new cast additions are genuinely exciting — Full House and You star John Stamos plays Chase Brylan, Dale Dickey (Fallout) joins as Zelda Moffitt, and WNBA star Angel Reese appears in a recurring capacity. IMDb Cam Gigandet (Twilight) also joins in a recurring guest role. IMDb
The streaming television landscape rarely produces soapy thrillers this compulsively watchable — and Season 2’s expanded global reach suggests Netflix has very big plans for this franchise.
