Peacock Renews Poker Face for Season 2
Peacock Original series Poker Face — from creator Rian Johnson and executive producer and star Natasha Lyonne — scored a second-season renewal.
Peacock announced today that Poker Face, the mystery-of-the-week Original series from creator Rian Johnson (Knives Out, Glass Onion) has been renewed for a second season.
In the acclaimed hit, Natasha Lyonne stars as Charlie Cale, who has an extraordinary ability to determine when someone is lying. She hits the road with her Plymouth Barracuda and with every stop, encounters a new cast of characters and strange crimes she can’t help but solve. Season 1 premiered on Peacock on Jan 26 to rave reviews and is currently Certified Fresh at 99% on Rotten Tomatoes.
“Poker Face is one of those rare, undeniable shows that we all fell in love with from the start, but the critical acclaim and viewer response has been beyond our wildest dreams,” said Susan Rovner, Chairman, Entertainment Content, NBCUniversal Television and Streaming. “Working alongside the creative genius of Rian Johnson, Natasha Lyonne, and Ram Bergman, along with our partners at MRC and T-Street, has been a spectacular ride, and we can’t wait to hit the road for another season as we continue to build momentum across Peacock’s originals slate.”
Episode 7 “The Future of the Sport” airs this week on Feb 16, with new episodes dropping Thursdays through Mar 9 — including Episode 8 “The Orpheus Syndrome” co-written and directed by Lyonne.
