Netflix has released a teaser trailer, along with announcing a May premiere date for Season 2 of the fantastic dark comedy ‘Dead To Me‘.
Season 1 of the 10-episode half-hour series followed a powerful friendship that blossoms between a tightly wound widow and a free spirit with a shocking secret. Sitcom veteran Christina Applegate plays Jen, a poised and put-together woman with a dark sense of humour and an anger problem that she doesn’t necessarily want to deal with. Jen has been struggling to keep it together in the months since her husband was killed in a hit and run. Former ‘ER’ star (and wife of Avenger’s Hawkeye) Linda Cardellini plays Judy, the aforementioned free-spirited friend.
Season 2 picks up in the aftermath of that bloody backyard reveal, as the irrepressible pair once again struggle to keep their secrets buried. With a surprising new visitor in town and Detective Perez (Diana Maria Riva – ‘The Morning Show’, ‘Man with a Plan’) hot on their heels, Jen and Judy take drastic measures to protect their loved ones and each other – no matter the cost.
Creator Liz Feldman (‘2 Broke Girls’, ‘One Big Happy’) serves as showrunner and executive producer on season two. Executive Producers also include Jessica Elbaum (‘Booksmart’, ‘Hustlers’) from Gloria Sanchez Productions, Will Ferrell (‘Succession’, ‘Drunk History’) and Adam McKay (‘Succession’, ‘Drunk History’) of Gary Sanchez Productions as well as Christie Smith (‘Nathan for You’, ‘Tosh.0’) and Christina Applegate. ‘Dead to Me’ is produced by CBS Television Studios for Netflix.
‘Dead To Me‘ Season 2 premieres Friday, 8th May 2020 on Netflix UK and worldwide.
