It seems that ‘Beef’ Season 2 is already making headlines, with the potential casting of some big names for the highly anticipated show. The creator and EP of ‘Beef’, Lee Sung Jin, hinted at the possibility of a second season as he accepted yet another award for the limited series at the Spirit Awards. The buzz is that he is now eyeing a star-studded cast for the upcoming season.
Rumors have it that the storyline for the second season will center around two feuding couples. Charles Melton and Cailee Spaeny, known for her standout performance in Sofia Coppola’s ‘Priscilla’, are reportedly being considered for one of the couples. On the other side, the names of Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway have also surfaced as potential cast members. Hathaway and Gyllenhaal previously worked together in the film ‘Love & Other Drugs’, and their potential reunion in ‘Beef’ Season 2 has fans excited.
While it’s still early days and no official deals have been confirmed, it’s been revealed that a limited season’s worth of scripts is in the works. If all goes according to plan, Netflix and A24 are aiming to kick off production for the second season by late summer or fall. The industry chatter about the show’s potential second season has been fueled by ‘Beef’s’ recent success at the award shows, with wins at the Spirits and the Producers Guild Awards, as well as multiple Primetime Emmy Awards and Golden Globes.
With the show’s growing list of accolades and the potential star power of the rumored cast, ‘Beef’ Season 2 is certainly shaping up to be a must-watch. Fans will undoubtedly be eagerly awaiting further updates as the production of the new season progresses.
