A new trailer for the Peacock TV series One of Us Is Lying, based on the novel of the same name by Karen McManus, has been published. Students at a secondary school are investigated as potential murderers. One of Us Is Lying follows the characters of Bronwyn (Marianly Tejada), Nate (Cooper van Grootel), Addy (Annalisa Cochrane), Cooper (Chibuikem Uche), and Janae (Jessica McLeod) as they find the truth about Simon’s (Mark McKenna) death during the first season.
Also at the end of the season, the gang cornered the killer, Jake (Barrett Carnahan), who is accidentally shot and murdered. The gang decides to put the incident behind them, so they hide Jake’s body and get ready to go on. But in a nail-biting twist, the five kids get a text from “Simon Says,” who says they know about Jake’s death and wants to meet with them.
The teaser for Season 2 begins with the Murder Club soon after we left them being coerced into playing a sick game. They must comply with Simon Says’ demands if they value protecting their anonymity. The trailer illustrates that doing so requires breaching the law, compromising each other’s confidence, and putting themselves in danger.
How far are the kids at Bayview willing to go to protect their anonymity? Can they find out who is blackmailing them before it’s too late? The second season of One of Us Is Lying takes the intrigue established in the previous season in fascinating new ways. For Season 2 of One of Us Is Lying, writer and executive producer Erica Saleh will take over as showrunner from Daro Madrona, who will continue in his role as an EP. Also contributing to the show’s executive producers are John Sacchi, Matt Groesch, Jan Oxenberg, Molly Nussbaum, and Bill Johnson.
Alimi Ballard as Kevin, Sara Thompson as Maeve, and Melissa Collazo as Maeve are also featured in Season 2 of One of Us Is Lying. On Thursday, October 20th, just in time for Halloween, Peacock will premiere the second season of One of Us Is Lying. Season 2 has the same format as the previous season, with eight episodes.
