“It’s definitely still Lucy and Stephen at the core. They’re definitely the through line of the show,” Tell Me Lies creator Meghan Oppenheimer told People. “But my intention going into this show, even from season one was: What are the repercussions within a friend group from one central set of lies?”

Along with Van Patten and White—who are a couple IRL—The show will see the return of cast members such as Sonia Mena as Pippa, Cat Missal as Bree and Spencer House as Wrigley.

New characters are also introduced. Thomas Doherty, previously seen on the Gossip Girl reboot and as Harry Hook in Disney’s Descendants movies, plays Leo, a new love interest for Lucy.
