The news, announced on Monday as part of Netflix Is a Joke Fest, came with a bonkers teaser trailer (above), which seemingly answers one of our biggest lingering questions after Season 1.

We wouldn’t blame you for not remembering how the show’s first season wrapped back in March 2023, so allow us to jog your memory: The chilling final scene found Jackson (John Owen Lowe) giving a speech about his father’s (Rob Lowe) integrity and levelheadedness at a crucial board meeting, unaware that Ellis had just torched the car of the woman attempting to oust him.

It was unclear when exactly the torching took place, and we weren’t initially sure whether it actually happened or if Ellis merely imagined doing it. But the teaser trailer suggests that Ellis is potentially facing prison time, which makes us think the torching is canon.

Returning series regulars include Rob Lowe as Ellis Dragon, John Owen Lowe as Jackson Dragon, Aaron Branch as Malcolm, Emma Ferreira as Ruby, Rachel Marsh as Luna and Sian Clifford as Anna. This season’s recurring cast, some new and others familiar, include Fred Armisen, Lamorne Morris, Iris Apatow, Frank Gallegos, JT Parr, Tom Allen and Sean Clements.
