The rivalries between the working mothers and housewives were played out to tense and icy perfection by its stars, especially Dern and Witherspoon as Renata and Madeline, respectively.
By the end of season one the women – including Nicole Kidman’s Celeste, Shailene Woodley’s Jane and Zoe Kravitz’s Bonnie – are all getting along famously, but that may well come to an end in season two.
Joining the cast is none other than Meryl Streep who will play the mother of Alexander Skarsgård‘s now deceased character, who will no doubt be looking for answers.
Acclaimed British director Andrea Arnold will direct the new season and David E. Kelly stays on as showrunner. The synopsis is as followed:
Big Little Lies season two will continue to explore the malignancy of lies, the durability of friendships, the fragility of marriage and, of course, the vicious ferocity of sound parenting.
Woodley’s character Jane Chapman will be processing Perry’s sudden death in the storyline, while trying to build a new life for herself and her son, Ziggy.
Dern, reprising her role as Renata Klein, is a woman who will be faced with new challenges in her marriage. Bonnie Carlson, Zoë Kravitz’s character, will confront her past while struggling to come to terms with Perry’s death.”
Big Little Lies season two returns in 2019.
