The beloved Natasha Lyonne comedy Poker Face is getting an even bigger deck of cards in its second season.
Peacock announced today that Method Man, Awkwafina, Simon Rex and Corey Hawkins will join the cast of the show’s second season.
In other words, the show will continue to rival Elsbeth and SNL in terms of big-name guest stars.
While Method Man is best known for his work with the Wu-Tang Clan, he’s no stranger to show business.
In addition to his performances in films such as “How High” and “Garden State,” he starred in 13 episodes of HBO’s “The Wire,” considered by many to be the greatest show in recent television history.
The legendary rapper is currently a regular on Power Book II: Ghost.
As for Awkwafina, in addition to her signature roles, Awkwafina also starred in “Shang-Chi” and “Legend of the Ten Rings,” and she will also star in the upcoming season of “Black Mirror.”
Rex is an industry veteran who made a comeback with his performance in the 2021 film Red Rocket, and Hawkins is best known for his role in Straight Outta Compton.
Fun fact: The man who played Dr. Dre and attended Juilliard is the only one in this quartet No A hip-hop single was released!
The newest additions to Poker Face Season 2 will join a long list of previously announced guest stars, including (deep breath!):
Giancarlo Esposito, Katie Holmes, Gabby Hoffman, Kumail Nanjiani, Sheryl Coke, Kevin Corrigan, Ben Marshall, Katherine Nadeau Chi and Cynthia Erivo.
Oh, you want more? How about BJ Novak, Margo Martindale, John Mulaney, Ego Nwodim and Sam Richardson?
Yes. The show doesn’t mess around when it comes to A-list murderers and thugs.
Sure, Elsbeth may have had a more bubbly personality, but Charlie Kyle clearly rubbed shoulders with just as many big-name suspects.
Poker Face Season 2 has yet to announce a premiere date.
The show is expected to go off the air in early to mid-2025.
