New details emerged today about several Apple TV+ shows. International epic drama series Pachinko has been renewed for a second season, the cast of After Party season 2 has been revealed along with a teaser for a new plot, and a new Charlie Brown special will air next week.
pachinko season 2
As my colleague Benjamin Mayo pointed out last month, the first eight-episode season of Pachinko covers about 1/3 of the book the series is based on. And the showrunner allegedly created a four-season arc for the series.
In today’s press release, Apple revealed ahead of the season one finale that Pachinko will be renewed for a second season. Creator, writer and executive producer Soo Hye shared the news:
“Words cannot express my joy that I can continue to tell the extraordinary story of this indomitable family,” said creator, writer and executive producer Hugh. “I am grateful to the amazing Apple team and Media Res for believing in and supporting this show, and to our passionate fans who have supported us. I am honored to have the opportunity to continue working with this amazing cast and crew.”
Season 2 of Afterparty – new cast and plot
Shortly before coming to a decision in the first season of the modern detective novel, we learned that the Afterparty was being renewed. Now, a new Variety report reveals the cast and overall plot of the second season.
Season 1 stars Sam Richardson and Zoe Chao are returning alongside Tiffany Haddish, but the rest of the cast appears to be new as the second season of Afterparty “will revolve around murder at a wedding.”
New cast: Zach Woods (Silicon Valley, The Office) as Edgar; Elizabeth Perkins (“Sharp Objects”, “Weeds”) as Isabelle; Poppy Liu (The Ringing Dead, Hackers, Better Call Saul) as Grace; Paul Walter Hauser (Black Bird, Cruella) as Travis; Anna Konkl (“Pen15”) as Hannah; Jack Whitehall (Travels with Father, Jungle Cruise) as Sebastian; and Vivian Wu (Away, Dead Pigs) as Vivian.
