After her critically-acclaimed role in the horror film Ma, Spencer has made her name in the thriller community known.
Exploring the new-age obsession with true-crime podcasts, season two follows Poppy Parnell, a podcaster played by Spencer.
The press release informs fans that this season involves Poppy “risking everything–including her life–to pursue truth and justice.”
Hudson enters this season as Poppy’s childhood friend and media mogul Micah Keith. Due to discoveries made by the podcaster, their seemingly unbreakable bond is put to the test.
In addition to Hudson, joining the sophomore season are series regulars Christopher Backus, Alona Tal, David Lyons, Andre Royo, Merle Dandridge, and Mychala Faith Lee.
Returning cast includes Mekhi Phifer, Ron Cephas Jones, Tracie Thoms, Haneefah Wood, Katherine LaNasa, Michael Beach, and Tami Roman.
Can’t wait for season 2 🤩🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
