The first season Poker Face featured more A-list guest stars than we can count, and its next chapter will stick to the same formula. Natasha Lyonne will be joined by several amazing actors in Season 2, including Giancarlo Esposito, Katie Holmes, Gaby Hoffmann, and Kumail Nanjiani.
Created for Peacock by Rian Johnson, this “case-of-the-week” murder mystery series centers on Charlie Cale, a casino worker with a special talent for telling when someone is lying. A suspicious death at the casino forces her to go on the run, and she comes across strange new crimes to solve everywhere she goes.
Poker Face’s unique format opened the door for many major actors to make guest appearances in individual episodes. The list of Season 1 guest stars included Adrien Brody, Ron Perlman, Chloë Sevigny, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Stephanie Hsu, Jameela Jamil, Charles Melton, Ellen Barkin, and Judith Light, who won an Emmy Award for outstanding guest actress in a comedy for her role.
Season 2 is shaping up to be equally star-studded, with Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad), Katie Holmes (Ray Donovan), Gaby Hoffmann (Transparent), and Kumail Nanjiani (Welcome to Chippendales) joining the cast in mystery roles. The rest of the guest-starring ensemble is yet to be announced, but Natasha Lyonne is returning as the lead.
