‘Tell Me Lies’ Season 2 Coming To Hulu in 2023

“You ready?” That’s the question on Stephen DeMarco’s lips, because Tell Me Lies, Hulu’s emotional roller coaster of a series that aired its twist-filled Season 1 finale on October 26, was officially renewed for a Season 2.

The toxic coming-of-age story is based off of Carola Lovering’s 2018 best-selling novel and follows Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten) and Stephen DeMarco’s (Jackson White) relationship over the span of eight years. To celebrate the renewal, Tell Me Lies’ social accounts shared a 12-second video announcement to remind fans of all the chaos to come.

When chatting with showrunner Meaghan Oppenheimer about the Season 1 finale in October, she told Decider she had big plans for a potential Season 2. “I have a lot planned — both in the college years, and also the adult years. I think getting to see more of Lucy’s life as an adult, and what her reaction is as Stephen kind of re-enters her life after years will be interesting,” she said.

“I’m hoping the start of Season 2 will be Lucy’s redemption tour towards Bree, like really realizing how much she has betrayed her. Not just with Evan…she’s just taken her for granted a lot,” Oppenheimer said later on in the Zoom interview. She also said fans would get to see more of the college years, but also receive some much-needed insight into those post-college mysteries.

“I want to go through all of college. So all the unanswered questions where people are like, ‘How the heck did that come to be?’ We will dive into all of those things: How did Stephen get together with Lydia? Where did his relationship with Diana go? When was the last time Lucy and Steven actually were together? Because it wasn’t the Hawaiian party. There’s more entanglement. That wasn’t their last breakup, I would say,” Oppenheimer explained. “So yes, I have a lot planned. I was just with some of the writers, and we were brainstorming all this crazy shit we could do. We have a lot of fun ideas, and we’ll hopefully see a lot more of the ensemble as well. I’ve been really happy with the audience response to some of them, so I think getting to explore their lives more will be really nice.”

While we’re still awaiting more details on the new episodes, we can assume the main cast, including Van Patten, White, Catherine Missal, Spencer House, Sonia Mena, Branden Cook, Benjamin Wadsworth, Alicia Crowder will be returning for Season 2, as they all have a lot of unfinished business.

Tell Me Lies Season 1 is now available to stream on Hulu.
