The first season of Poker Face was one star-studded affair, and Natasha Lyonne will be in pretty good company when this series returns. Giancarlo Esposito, Katie Holmes, Gaby Hoffmann, and Kumail Nanjiani are set to guest star in Season 2 of Peacock’s hit series.
Rian Johnson’s “case-of-the-week” murder mystery series follows the trials and tribulations of a casino worker Charlie Cale. She’s forced to go on a run after her special talent to detect lies gets her in trouble, and she uses her ability to solve a string of crimes while traveling across the United States.
Each episode of Poker Face features a different setting and a group of characters, and it served as a showcase for many amazing guest stars in Season 1. Judith Light won an Emmy for her guest role, while the cast also included the likes of Adrien Brody, Ron Perlman, Chloë Sevigny, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Stephanie Hsu, Jameela Jamil, Charles Melton, and Ellen Barkin.
The trend of casting acclaimed actors in guest starring roles will continue in the upcoming Season 2. It will star Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad), Katie Holmes (Ray Donovan), Gaby Hoffmann (Transparent), and Kumail Nanjiani (Welcome to Chippendales), in addition to Natasha Lyonne in the lead role.
