Showrunner Melanie Halsall is back to steer the ship for the second installment, and Ed Glauser will executive produce the series once again. Jason Priestley, who directed two episodes from Season 1, will return to direct multiple episodes and will also serve as a producer this season.
Becky Hartman Edwards is also joining as an executive producer for Season 2, likely as a seasoned hand to help guide the crew into uncharted territory, as there is no source material for this second season. She is a producer and writer known for Firefly Lane, The Bold Type, Switched at Birth, Parenthood and more.
Author Ali Novak previously announced that she is writing a sequel to the bestselling novel, but she assured that “one of the content that I am currently writing will be in the second season.”
On the cast front, returning series regulars are Nikki Rodriguez, Sarah Rafferty, Marc Blucas, Noah LaLonde, Ashby Gentry, Connor Stanhope, Johnny Link, Corey Fogelmanis, and Jaylan Evans.
Zoë Soul has been reclassified as recurring for Season 2, meaning she will appear in less episodes. It’s unclear what this might signal for the story, since her character Hayley married the eldest Walter brother (Johnny Link) in the Season 1 finale.
