The Office's B.J. Novak, Wicked Star Cynthia Erivo Join Poker Face Season 2: Details

As a seasoned gamer with a knack for binge-watching TV shows, I can confidently say that the announcement of Season 2 of Poker Face has sent my excitement levels skyrocketing! With its stellar lineup of stars and the creative brilliance behind it, this show is shaping up to be a must-watch.


Season 2 of Poker Face sounds like it’s gonna be just as star-studded as the first. Peacock announced today that the hit series from the dynamic duo of Rian Johnson (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) and Natasha Lyonne (Russian Doll) will feature guest appearances from the likes of Cynthia Erivo (Wicked), B.J. Novak (The Office), and Margo Martindale (Cocaine Bear).

This freshly-verified threesome is added to the previously-mentioned ensemble, which includes Giancarlo Esposito (Breaking Bad), Katie Holmes (Batman Begins), Gaby Hoffmann (Transparent), Kumail Nanjiani (Welcome to Chippendales), Sherry Cola (Joy Ride), Kevin Corrigan (Narcos: Mexico), Ben Marshall (Please Don’t Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain), and Kathrine Narducci (Euphoria)

Apart from her roles as an executive producer and director, Lyonne additionally assumes the lead character of Charlie Cale, a wandering detective with a unique knack for detecting dishonesty. Johnson, the creator behind this project who functions as writer, director, and executive producer, has acknowledged that shows like Columbo and Murder, She Wrote have significantly influenced his creative vision, both of which are available on Peacock for streaming

As a gamer, here’s my take on paraphrasing the given sentence: In the upcoming episodes of this show, I see Ram Bergman, Nena Rodrigue, Adam Arkin, and the dynamic duo, the Zuckerman sisters, Nora and Lilla. Interestingly, the reins were passed to Tony Tost for Season 2, taking over from the Zuckermans
