Max's 2024 trailer is offering us a first look at Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Lindsay Calhoon Bring's Pretty Little Liars: Summer School.



Article Summary

  • New "Pretty Little Liars: Summer School" footage unveiled in Max's 2024 trailer.
  • Shows return to production post-WGA & SAG-AFTRA strikes with fresh storylines.
  • Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa teases season details with Instagram breadcrumbs.
  • Annabeth Gish reprises role as Dr. Sullivan, joining the Liars in season two.

Because of the WGA & SAG-AFTRA strikes, it's been a while since we last checked in on how things were going with Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa and Lindsay Calhoon Bring's Pretty Little Liars: Summer School. But it looks like good things come to those who wait because now that new deals have been signed, we've got productions getting back underway and the promotional machines revving back up to preview what's to come. And that's exactly what Max did earlier today, dropping "The One To Watch In 2024" trailer that included a whole lot of first-looks at a whole lot of series, specials, and more. And that included the newest season of PLL, where we get an ominous look at the danger at hand – as well as a look at our heroes channeling their inner "Cobra Kai" for self-defense training.

The (Pre-SAG-AFTRA/WGA Strikes) Road to Pretty Little Liars: Summer School

Now here's a look at the preview that was released back in November 2022, followed by the social media "breadcrumbs" that led to the big reveal (hopefully, with some more storyline details on the way soon):

"Happy Halloween! It may still be October, but it's not too early to start thinking about summer vacation. Or in the case of Millwood High's [Pretty Little Liars]," Aguirre-Sacasa wrote in his Instagram post that also included some interesting key art announcing the title of what we now know is the second season. And major points for the homage to 1981's slasher parody Student Bodies for the poster:

"Always a treat when some little liars stop by the writers' offices to say HELLOOO, spill the tea, and tell us juicy secrets! Season Two of ['Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin'] is HAPPENING!!! But is it ['Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin'] again this year…or something else?" Aguirre-Sacasa wrote in the caption of his Instagram post from October that included that teaser at the end that something was on the way:

"The doctor is in… sane… Actually, she's beyond lovely. Here's a first look at the iconic [Annabeth Gish] returning to the #PLL universe as Dr. Sullivan, helping our indefatigable little liars navigate the traumas of last season as well as the horrors and indignities of…SUMMER SCHOOL… #PLL: SS is gearing up for a hot, cruel, BLOODY summer of fun…," Aguirre-Sacasa wrote as the caption to their Instagram post back in April announcing Annabeth Gish (Mayfair Witches, The Fall of the House of Usher) was returning as Dr. Anne Sullivan:

"We are beyond excited to continue telling stories with our amazing group of little liars — exploring their friendships, their romances, their secrets, and their status as scream queens supreme!" said Aguirre-Sacasa and Bring in a joint statement when news of the show's return was first announced. "Eternal thanks to the fans who have embraced this new horror version of Pretty Little Liars — which we'll be continuing, of course — as well as our partners at HBO Max, Warner Bros. Television, and Alloy Entertainment. As Tabby would say, 'There's a sequel in the offing!'"

HBO Max's Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin is produced by Aguirre-Sacasa's Muckle Man Productions and Alloy Entertainment (Gossip Girl, Pretty Little Liars, The Vampire Diaries, You) in association with Warner Bros. Television. Bailee Madison, Chandler Kinney, Zaria, Malia Pyles, and Maia Reficco star as the new generation of Liars. Joining the five are Mallory Bechtel, Sharon Leal, Elena Goode, Lea Salonga, Eric Johnson, and Alex Aiono.I. Marlene King (who developed the original Pretty Little Liars), Michael Grassi, Caroline Baron, and Alloy's Leslie Morgenstein and Gina Girolamo are also executive producers of the series, which is based upon the bestselling series of books by Sara Shepard, published by Alloy Entertainment.
