Poker Face Season 2

Get ready to hit the road again: Poker Face Season 2 is officially rolling into town starting May 8. Peacock just dropped the brand-new trailer with our first glimpse at the wild ride ahead.

From creator Rian Johnson (Knives Out, Glass Onion) and starring Emmy® nominee Natasha Lyonne, Peacock’s comedy series is back for 12 new episodes packed with killer guest stars, offbeat mysteries, and Charlie Cale’s signature lie-detecting charm.


Can I watch the Poker Face Season 2 trailer?

Yes, you can! The Season 2 trailer of Poker Face kicks off with Charlie Cale (Natasha Lyonne) doing what she does best – hitting the open road in her beat-up Barracuda and sniffing out lies like it's second nature. The trailer teases new murder mysteries, each more bizarre than the last, including ones set at a minor league baseball game, a funeral home, a school talent show, and what looks like a very chaotic alligator farm.

One of the biggest show-stopping moments? Cynthia Erivo enters the scene with chilling intensity, setting off what looks like a high-stakes cat-and-mouse chase between her character and Charlie. There’s also a blink-and-you’ll scream moment with Awkwafina, plus peeks of John Mulaney, Kumail Nanjiani, Method Man, and Katie Holmes – all looking right at home in Poker Face’s eccentric universe. 

It’s weird, witty, and totally unmissable.


What is Poker Face Season 2 about?

Season 2 takes Charlie’s existential road trip to new heights, tracking lies and solving crimes in the most unexpected places – from a minor league baseball field to an alligator farm to a grade school talent show.

Johnson and Lyonne call the season “a gonzo parade” of episodic murder mysteries with a visual style inspired by ‘70s American cinema and TV classics like Columbo and Quantum Leap. Each episode is its own world with its own tone, and yes, an unforgettable new batch of weird, wonderful characters.
