"Charlie Cale is back on the run, and in Season 2, we've taken her journey to the next level, one murder mystery at a time. From minor league baseball to big box retail, from funeral homes to alligator farms and even a grade school talent show, Charlie navigates her crime-solving existential road trip with deadpan wit, human empathy, and her signature uncanny lie-detecting ability," Johnson and Lyonne wrote in a special letter to the fans regarding the upcoming second season of Poker Face.

"To bring Season 2 to life, we pulled visual inspiration from American 70s cinema, all the stuff we love like Robert Altman, Bob Rafelson, Peter Bogdanovich. But the backbone of this show is TV – the kind of TV we grew up watching, episodic case-of-the-week gems like 'Columbo' and 'The Rockford Files' and 'Quantum Leap.' Each episode is a mini-movie, existing in its own world with a unique tone and vibe, featuring an eccentric lot of characters played by a truly gonzo parade of guest stars. We still can't believe we got to work with rockstars like Cynthia Erivo, Katie Holmes, John Mulaney, and Awkwafina (and many many more, the list is kinda dizzying) who all dove into the game with joy and came ready to play," the duo added. "Twelve killer new episodes are coming your way. Buckle up, and see you on the road!

The show's critically acclaimed first season received four Primetime Emmy nominations, including Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for Lyonne. It also garnered Peacock its first Emmy win for Judith Light's Outstanding Guest Actress Performance in a Comedy Series. Stemming from T-Street, Animal Pictures, and MRC, Peacock's Poker Face is created, written, directed, and executive-produced by Rian Johnson, with series star Natasha Lyonne also directing, writing, and executive-producing. Showrunner Tony Tost also serves as an executive producer, as do Ram Bergman, Nena Rodrigue, Adam Arkin, Nora Zuckerman, and Lilla Zuckerman. The third season of the hit streaming series will hit screens in Spring 2025.
